Amoxil contains the active ingredient amoxicillin. It is a prescription antibiotic used to treat certain infections caused by bacteria.
It belongs to a group of medications called penicillin antibiotics. Amoxil does not treat viral illnesses such as the common cold or flu.
Amoxil may be used to treat bacterial infections affecting the ears, nose, and throat, including:
It helps clear the bacteria causing the infection and may reduce symptoms such as pain, swelling, fever, and difficulty swallowing.
Amoxil may be prescribed for certain bacterial infections affecting the lungs and lower airways, such as:
These infections may cause coughing, fever, chest discomfort, mucus production, and difficulty breathing.
Not every case of bronchitis requires an antibiotic because many cases are caused by viruses. A healthcare provider will determine whether Amoxil is appropriate.
Amoxil may be used to treat certain bacterial infections of the urinary system, including:
Cystitis, which affects the bladder
Pyelonephritis, which affects the kidneys
Symptoms may include painful urination, frequent urination, lower abdominal discomfort, fever, back pain, or blood in the urine.
The bacteria causing the infection must be sensitive to amoxicillin for the medication to work effectively.
Amoxil may also be used to treat certain bacterial infections affecting the skin and tissues beneath it.
These may include cellulitis, impetigo, and infected wounds.
Possible symptoms include redness, warmth, swelling, pain, drainage, or crusted skin lesions.
Amoxil may be used with other medications to treat an infection caused by Helicobacter pylori, commonly called H. pylori.
This bacterium can damage the lining of the stomach and upper intestine and may contribute to duodenal ulcers.
Amoxil is usually combined with other antibiotics and an acid-reducing medication. Clearing the infection may help ulcers heal and reduce the chance that they will return.
Amoxil is a penicillin antibiotic.
Bacteria need a strong outer cell wall to survive. Amoxil blocks the bacteria from building and maintaining this wall.
Without a properly formed cell wall, the bacteria weaken, break apart, and die. This allows the immune system to clear the infection.
Amoxil only works against bacteria that are sensitive to amoxicillin. It will not work against viruses, fungi, or bacteria that are resistant to the medication.
Take Amoxil exactly as prescribed and complete the full treatment course, even if you begin to feel better. Stopping treatment too early may allow the infection to return and may contribute to antibiotic resistance.
Take Amoxil exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
Amoxicillin capsules are usually taken every 8 hours, which is three times daily, or every 12 hours, which is twice daily. The schedule depends on the type and severity of the infection.
Take each dose at evenly spaced times and at approximately the same times every day.
Amoxil may be taken with or without food.
Taking it with food may help reduce nausea or stomach upset. Swallow the capsule whole with a full glass of water.
Do not crush, chew, or open the capsule unless your healthcare provider or pharmacist tells you that it is safe.
The adult dose depends on the infection being treated and how severe it is.
Common adult doses may include:
Some infections require higher doses or a different treatment schedule. Follow the instructions on your prescription label rather than using a general dose.
A child’s dose is usually based on:
For some infections, a healthcare provider may prescribe a total daily dose based on milligrams per kilogram of body weight and divide it into two or three doses.
Do not give a child an adult dose or calculate the dose without guidance from a healthcare provider or pharmacist.
Follow the prescription instructions carefully.
Do not:
Ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist to explain any instructions you do not understand.
Complete the entire prescribed treatment course, even if you begin to feel better.
Stopping Amoxil too early may allow the infection to return. It may also increase the risk that bacteria become resistant to antibiotics.
Take a missed dose as soon as you remember.
However, skip it if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Continue with your regular dosing schedule.
Do not take two doses at once or take extra medication to make up for a missed dose.
Drink enough fluids during treatment unless your healthcare provider has told you to limit your fluid intake.
Contact your healthcare provider if your symptoms do not improve, become worse, or return after you complete treatment.
Amoxil (Amoxicillin) is available in the following forms and strength:
Amoxil may cause a serious allergic reaction, although this is uncommon.
Stop taking the medication and seek emergency medical care if you develop:
Tell your healthcare provider if you have ever had an allergic reaction to amoxicillin, penicillin, cephalosporin antibiotics, or another medication.
Common side effects of Amoxil may include:
These effects are often mild and may improve as treatment continues. Contact your healthcare provider if they are severe, persistent, or getting worse.
A new rash should be assessed because it may be caused by an allergy, an infection, or another reaction to the medication.
Antibiotics such as Amoxil may rarely cause a serious bowel infection called Clostridioides difficile-associated diarrhea.
This can occur during treatment or several weeks after the antibiotic has been stopped.
Contact your healthcare provider promptly if you develop:
Do not use an anti-diarrhea medication unless your healthcare provider recommends it.
Amoxil may interact with certain medications.
Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, and herbal supplements you take.
Important interactions may occur with medications such as:
Do not start, stop, or change another medication without medical advice.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have kidney disease or reduced kidney function.
The kidneys remove amoxicillin from the body. People with kidney problems may need a lower dose or more time between doses.
Blood tests or other monitoring may be required during treatment.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Amoxicillin is commonly used during pregnancy when a healthcare provider determines that treatment is appropriate. A small amount may pass into breast milk.
A breastfed baby should be monitored for diarrhea, rash, or oral thrush. Do not begin or stop treatment without medical guidance.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have HIV, lupus, mononucleosis, or another condition that affects the immune system.
Some medical conditions may increase the likelihood of developing a rash or another reaction during amoxicillin treatment. This does not always mean the medication cannot be used, but closer monitoring may be needed.
Amoxil may affect the results of certain laboratory tests, including some urine glucose tests.
Tell the healthcare provider or laboratory staff that you are taking amoxicillin before having blood or urine tests.
Use Amoxil only for a bacterial infection diagnosed or strongly suspected by a healthcare provider.
Taking antibiotics when they are not needed, skipping doses, or stopping treatment early can contribute to antibiotic resistance. Resistant bacteria are harder to treat because antibiotics may no longer work effectively.
Take every dose as prescribed and complete the full treatment course unless your healthcare provider tells you to stop.
Amoxicillin is commonly used during pregnancy and breastfeeding when a healthcare provider decides that treatment is appropriate. Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. A small amount of amoxicillin may pass into breast milk, so a nursing baby should be monitored for diarrhea, rash, or oral thrush. Do not begin or stop treatment without medical guidance.
No. Amoxicillin only treats infections caused by bacteria. It does not work against viral illnesses such as the common cold, influenza, most sore throats, or most cases of bronchitis. Using an antibiotic for a viral infection will not help you recover faster and may contribute to antibiotic resistance.
The length of treatment depends on the type, location, and severity of the infection. Some infections require only a few days of treatment, while others may need a longer course. Take Amoxicillin for the full length of time prescribed, even if you begin to feel better. Stopping treatment too early may allow the infection to return.
Alcohol does not have a known direct interaction with amoxicillin. However, alcohol may worsen nausea, dizziness, stomach discomfort, or dehydration. It may also make it harder for your body to recover from an infection. It may be best to avoid or limit alcohol until you have completed treatment and are feeling well.
Yes. Overusing or misusing Amoxicillin can contribute to antibiotic resistance. This happens when bacteria change and the antibiotic becomes less effective against them, making future infections more difficult to treat. To reduce this risk, take Amoxicillin only when prescribed, follow the correct dose and schedule, complete the full treatment course, do not share antibiotics, and do not save leftover medication for another illness.
