Product Description

Augmentin
Augmentin is a semisynthetic penicillin antibiotic with a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity.
Statement:
Infectious-inflammatory diseases caused by microorganisms sensitive to the drug:
– Infections of the upper respiratory tract (including recurrent tonsillitis, sinusitis, otitis media), usually caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis, and Streptococcus pyogenes;
– Infections of the lower respiratory tract: exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, lobar pneumonia and bronchopneumonia, usually caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Moraxella catarrhalis;
– Urinary tract infections: cystitis, urethritis, pyelonephritis, infection of the female genital organs, usually caused by species of the family Enterobacteriaceae (mostly Escherichia coli), Staphylococcus saprophyticus and species of the genus Enterococcus, as well as gonorrhea caused by Neisseria gonorrhea;
– Infections of skin and soft tissue, usually caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes and species of the genus Bacteroides;
– Bone and joint infections: osteomyelitis is usually caused by Staphylococcus aureus, with the need for long-term therapy;
– Other mixed infections such as septic abortion, obstetric sepsis, intra-abdominal infections.
Special instructions:
In treatment is necessary to carry out monitoring of the functions of blood, liver and kidneys. To reduce the risk of side effects from the gastrointestinal tract should take the Augmentin antibiotic with meals. Perhaps the development of superinfection due to growth of microorganisms insensitive to it, which requires a corresponding change in antimicrobial therapy. When assigning patients with sepsis may develop bacteriolysis reaction (Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction). In patients with hypersensitivity to penicillins, may be cross-allergic reactions to cephalosporin antibiotics. Because pills – a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid 250 mg and 500 contain the same amount of clavulanic acid (125 mg), 2 tablets of 250 mg are not equivalent to one tablet of 500 mg. Consult with your doctor before buying Augmentin online.
