Compisition
• Active substance
Amoxicillin trihydrate — equivalent to 125 mg amoxicillin in 5 ml of ready suspension.
E‑Mox 125 mg/5 ml is an oral amoxicillin-based suspension, used primarily in children to treat various bacterial infections. It has a broad spectrum of activity against many susceptible microorganisms.
Pharmacological properties
How the drug works
• Kills bacteria
Amoxicillin disrupts the construction of the bacterial cell wall, resulting in bacterial death.
• Rapidly absorbed
After oral administration, the drug is well absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, even when taken with food.
• Remains active in the body for a sufficient duration
Therapeutic blood concentration persists for several hours, allowing for dosing 2–3 times a day.
• Excreted via the kidneys
The main route of excretion is renal; therefore, the drug is especially effective against urinary tract infections.
Indications for use
• Infections of the upper respiratory tract (tonsillitis, sinusitis, otitis)
• Infections of the lower respiratory tract (bronchitis, pneumonia)
• Urinary tract infections
• Skin and soft tissue infections
• Gastrointestinal infections (e.g., for H. pylori as part of combination therapy).
