Amoxicillin is used in the treatment of various bacterial infections. It's categorised as a penicillin-type antibiotic. It basically stops bacteria from further growing. The medicine is only used to treat bacterial infections. It's not to be used for viral infections as it will not work. Any use of an antibiotic when it isn't needed can make it not work for future infections. When combined with other medications, Amoxicillin can also be used to treat stomach/intestinal ulcers that result from the bacteria H. pylori. It can also prevent the ulcers from recurring.

Description

What is Amoxicillin?

Amoxicillin is an antibiotic that is used to treat infections in different parts of the body caused by certain types of bacteria. It can also be used to prevent the body from acquiring infections, especially after surgery.

 

How Does Amoxicillin Work?

Bacteria are microscopic single-cell microbes that surround us. Some of them are helpful, for instance, some bacteria in help in the breakdown of food in the intestines. However, when some bacteria enters the body either through the airway, mouth, eyes, or urogenital openings, they can cause infections. Amoxicillin works by inhibiting the growth and reproduction of bacteria. It kills them and relieves the body from all the symptoms of bacterial infections.
