1. What is Amoxicillin Almus and what is it used for

What is Amoxicillin Almus

Amoxicillin Almus is an antibiotic. The active substance is amoxicillin. This belongs to a group of medicines called “penicillins”.

Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections and are not effective against viral infections such as the flu or the common cold.

It is important that you follow the instructions regarding dosage, administration interval, and treatment duration indicated by your doctor.

Do not store or reuse this medication. If you have any leftover antibiotic after finishing treatment, return it to the pharmacy for proper disposal. Do not throw medicines down the drain or into the trash.

What Amoxicillin Almus is used for

Amoxicillin Almus is used to treat infections caused by bacteria in different parts of the body. Amoxicillin Almus can also be used in combination with other medications to treat stomach ulcers.

Doctor consultation

Not sure if this medicine is right for you?

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

2. What you need to know before you take Amoxicillin Almus

Do not take Amoxicillin Almus:

  • if you are allergic to amoxicillin, penicillins, or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • if you have ever had an allergic reaction to any other antibiotic. This could include a skin rash or swelling of the face or throat.

Do not take amoxicillin if any of the above applies to you. If you are not sure, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking amoxicillin.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking Amoxicillin Almus if:

  • you have infectious mononucleosis (fever, sore throat, swollen glands, and extreme fatigue)
  • you have kidney problems
  • you do not urinate regularly.

If you are not sure if any of the above situations apply to you, inform your doctor or pharmacist before taking Amoxicillin Almus.

Blood and urine tests

If you are having:

  • urine tests (glucose in urine) or blood tests for liver function.
  • estriol tests (used during pregnancy to check if the baby is developing normally).

Tell your doctor or pharmacist that you are taking Amoxicillin Almus. This is because this medicine may alter the results of these types of tests.

Using Amoxicillin Almus with other medicines

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used, or might use any other medicines.

  • If you are taking allopurinol (used for gout) with Amoxicillin Almus, you may be more likely to suffer a skin allergic reaction.
  • If you are taking probenecid (used to treat gout), concomitant use of probenecid may reduce the excretion of amoxicillin and is not recommended.
  • If you are taking anticoagulants (such as warfarin) with Amoxicillin Almus, more blood tests may be needed.
  • If you are taking other antibiotics (such as tetracycline), Amoxicillin Almus may be less effective.
  • If you are taking methotrexate (a medicine used to treat cancer and severe psoriasis), penicillins may reduce the excretion of methotrexate and cause an increase in adverse effects.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.

Driving and using machines

Amoxicillin Almus may cause side effects such as allergic reactions, dizziness, and convulsions, which may make you unfit to drive.

General Advice Regarding the Use of Antibiotics

Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections. They are not effective against viral infections.

Sometimes a bacterial infection does not respond to antibiotic treatment. One of the most common reasons for this is that the bacteria causing the infection are resistant to the antibiotic being taken. This means that the bacteria can survive or grow despite the antibiotic.

Bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics for many reasons. Using antibiotics properly can reduce the chances of bacteria becoming resistant to them.

When your doctor prescribes an antibiotic, it is only to treat your current illness. Paying attention to the following advice will help prevent the appearance of resistant bacteria that can make the antibiotic ineffective:

  1. You should not take an antibiotic unless it has been specifically prescribed for you, and you should only use it for the infection for which it was prescribed.
  2. You should not take antibiotics that have been prescribed for other people, even if they had a similar infection to yours.
  3. You should not give antibiotics that have been prescribed for you to other people.
  4. If you still have antibiotic left after completing the treatment, return all unused medication to your pharmacy to ensure that disposal requirements are met.
