Augmentin Kids Suspension 90ml - Amoxicillin Clavulanate Antibiotic
Augmentin Kids Suspension 90ml is a reliable broad-spectrum antibiotic specifically designed for children, making it an essential choice for effectively treating bacterial infections. This expertly formulated suspension combines the powerful ingredients amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, offering robust protection against a wide variety of bacterial strains. As a member of the penicillin class of antibiotics, Augmentin Suspension plays a crucial role in addressing various infections in young patients, ensuring they receive the necessary care for a smooth recovery.
Each 5ml dose of Augmentin Suspension contains 156.25mg of amoxicillin, a potent beta-lactam antibiotic that works by disrupting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls. This mechanism effectively eliminates harmful bacteria, allowing your child to recover quickly and comfortably. The addition of clavulanic acid acts as a beta-lactamase inhibitor, protecting amoxicillin from degradation by bacterial enzymes. This enhancement increases its effectiveness against resistant strains, making Augmentin Suspension a dependable option for treating infections that may not respond to other antibiotics.
Commonly prescribed for a range of infections, Augmentin Suspension is particularly effective against respiratory tract infections such as sinusitis and pneumonia, skin and soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections (UTIs), ear infections (otitis media), and infections of the bones and joints. For the best outcomes, it is essential to consult with a healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis and a tailored treatment plan that meets your child's specific needs.
When it comes to dosage and administration, the specific amount of Augmentin Suspension will depend on your child’s weight, age, and the severity of the infection. Always follow your doctor’s instructions for the correct dosage. Before use, shake the bottle well and administer the medication using a measuring spoon or syringe to ensure precise dosing.
Please note that Augmentin Suspension is a prescription-only medication and should only be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional. If your child has a history of penicillin allergy or any kidney issues, it is crucial to inform your healthcare provider prior to use. While most children tolerate the medication well, some may experience common side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, or rash. If any severe reactions occur, seek medical attention promptly.
For optimal storage, keep Augmentin Suspension in a cool, dry place below 25°C. Once reconstituted, it should be refrigerated and used within the prescribed duration to maintain its efficacy.
