Rhea Amoxicillin Indications/Uses

Amoxicillin-clavunate should be used in accordance with local official antibiotic-prescribing guidelines and local susceptibility data.
Amoxicillin is a broad spectrum antibiotic indicated for the treatment of commonly occurring bacterial infections such as: Upper respiratory tract infections e.g. ear, nose and throat infections, otitis media; Lower respiratory tract infections e.g acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis, lobar and bronchopneumonia; Gastrointestinal tract infections e.g. typhoid and paratyphoid fever; Genito-urinary tract infections e.g cystitis, urethritis, pyelonephritis, bacteriuria in pregnancy, septic abortion, puerperal sepsis; Other incfections including Borreliosis (Borrelia burgdorferi) (Lyme disease); Skin and soft tissue infections; Biliary tract infections; Bone infections; Pelvic infections; Gonorrhoea (non-penicillinase producing strains); Septicaemia; Endocarditis; Meningitis; Peritonitis; Dental abscess (as an adjunct to surgical management) Helicobacter pylori eradication in peptic (duodenal and gastric) ulcer disease.
Infections such as septicaemia, endocarditis and meningitis due to susceptible organisms should be treated initially with high doses of a parenteral therapy and, where appropriate, in combination with another antibiotic.
Prophylaxis of endocarditis: Amoxicillin may be used for the prevention of bacteraemia associated with procedures such as dental extraction, in patients at risk of developing endocarditis (see Dosage & Administration).
Susceptibility to Amoxicillin will vary with geography and time and local susceptibility data should be consulted where available and microbiological sampling and susceptibility testing where necessary (see Pharmacology: Pharmacodynamics under Actions).
