What is Augmentin used for?

Augmentin, with the generic name amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium, is an oral medication indicated to treat different types of bacterial infections, namely lower respiratory tract infections, otitis media, sinusitis, urinary tract infection, and skin/skin structure infections. It could also be used to prevent infections that susceptible bacteria could cause.

This is available in Augmentin 875 mg /125 mg, 500 mg /125 mg, and 250 mg /125 mg film-coated tablets.

How does Augmentin work?

This penicillin-like antibiotic works by blocking the beta-lactamase enzymes and supplying the organisms that are susceptible to this antibiotic’s rapid bactericidal effect at a level that is readily attainable in the system. This drug produces a broad-spectrum antibacterial effect that is widely beneficial in the clinical setup and general practice.

How to use Augmentin

To initiate, read the medication guide or information leaflet that comes with this product. Do not take any antibiotics if you have not yet fully understood the drug information and instructions in the guide provided. In case you need more medical advice or have questions on how to take Augmentin properly, you may ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Take the tablet orally. This is usually prescribed twice or thrice daily. You may take this oral drug on an empty stomach or with a meal. However, if you develop stomach upset, make sure to take it with food. Swallow the tablet whole and drink a glass of water afterward.

Remember to take Augmentin exactly as directed. You must make a dosing schedule with equal intervals between each dose. Do not alter your dosing and frequency as it will depend on your age, weight, medical condition, and response to treatment. Also, never stop taking Augmentin even for a short while because doing so may cause further growth of bacteria or return of the infection.

Before using this antibiotic, you must fully disclose your medical history with your physician. This includes any history of recent viral infection, kidney disease, and liver problems. Note that certain disorders and diseases may impact how your body will respond to Augmentin. In addition, you must talk to your physician about all the prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal medicines you are taking because of possible drug interactions.

Consistently lookout for an allergic reaction while taking this drug. Do not take this prescription medication if you have a known allergy to amoxicillin, clavulanic acid, other penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotics, and any inactive ingredients each tablet may contain. Signs of hypersensitivity are severe dizziness, breathing trouble, swelling of the face and neck, skin rashes, and hives. If this occurs, discontinue the medication and seek emergency medical attention.

This type of medication contains aspartame. In case you have phenylketonuria (PKU) or any condition in which you should avoid aspartame or phenylalanine, consult your pharmacist or healthcare provider before taking this antibiotic.

Do not get vaccinated or immunized, especially with live-attenuated bacteria, while on Augmentin. Live bacterial vaccine like that of typhoid may not work well if administered while on antibiotic therapy.
