About this item
Augmentin is a prescription medicine used to treat the symptoms of many different infections caused by bacteria such as lower respiratory tract infections, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bacterial sinusitis, animal/human bite wounds, and skin infections. Augmentin may be used alone or with other medications.
Augmentin is a Penicillin, Amino.
Side Effects: Augmentin may cause serious side effects including:
- severe stomach pain,
- diarrhea which is watery or bloody,
- pale or yellowed skin,
- dark colored urine,
- fever,
- confusion,
- weakness,
- loss of appetite,
- upper stomach pain,
- yellowing of skin or eyes (jaundice),
- easy bruising or bleeding,
- little or no urination,
- sore throat,
- swelling in your face or tongue,
- burning in your eyes,
- skin pain followed by a red or purple rash that spreads (on the face or upper body) with blisters and peeling
- Get medical help right away, if you have any of the symptoms listed above.
The most common side effects of Augmentin include:
- nausea,
- diarrhea,
- vaginal itching or discharge,
Take Augmentin exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Follow all directions on your prescription label. Do not take this medicine in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.
Take Augmentin every 8-12 hours as prescribed, at the start of a meal to reduce stomach upset.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
AUGMENTIN may be taken without regard to meals; however, absorption of clavulanate potassium is enhanced when AUGMENTIN is administered at the start of a meal. To minimize the potential for gastrointestinal intolerance, AUGMENTIN should be taken at the start of a meal.
Adults
The usual adult dose is one 500-mg tablet of AUGMENTIN every 12 hours or one 250-mg tablet of AUGMENTIN every 8 hours. For more severe infections and infections of the respiratory tract, the dose should be one 875-mg tablet of AUGMENTIN every 12 hours or one 500-mg tablet of AUGMENTIN every 8 hours. Adults who have difficulty swallowing may be given the 125 mg/5 mL or 250 mg/5 mL suspension in place of the 500-mg tablet. The 200 mg/5 mL suspension or the 400 mg/5 mL suspension may be used in place of the 875-mg tablet.
Two 250-mg tablets of AUGMENTIN should not be substituted for one 500-mg tablet of AUGMENTIN. Since both the 250-mg and 500-mg tablets of AUGMENTIN contain the same amount of clavulanic acid (125 mg, as the potassium salt), two 250-mg tablets are not equivalent to one 500-mg tablet of AUGMENTIN.
The 250-mg tablet of AUGMENTIN and the 250-mg chewable tablet should not be substituted for each other, as they are not interchangeable. The 250-mg tablet of AUGMENTIN and the 250-mg chewable tablet do not contain the same amount of clavulanic acid (as the potassium salt). The 250-mg tablet of AUGMENTIN contains 125 mg of clavulanic acid, whereas the 250-mg chewable tablet contains 62.5 mg of clavulanic acid.
Pediatric Patients
Based on the amoxicillin component, AUGMENTIN should be dosed as follows:
Neonates And Infants Aged <12 Weeks (<3 Months)
The recommended dose of AUGMENTIN is 30 mg/kg/day divided every 12 hours, based on the amoxicillin component. Experience with the 200 mg/5 mL formulation in this age group is limited, and thus, use of the 125 mg/5 mL oral suspension is recommended.
Patients Aged 12 Weeks (3 Months) And Older
See dosing regimens provided in Table 1. The every 12 hour regimen is recommended as it is associated with significantly less diarrhea [see Clinical Studies]. However, the every 12 hour suspension (200 mg/5 mL and 400 mg/5 mL) and chewable tablets (200 mg and 400 mg) contain aspartame and should not be used by phenylketonurics.
Drinking alcohol while taking Augmentin may increase your risk of certain side effects, or make your side effects worse.
Examples of side effects that might be more likely to occur or worsen with alcohol use include:
vomiting
dizziness
stomach upset
liver problems
