The purchase of antibiotics such as Amoxicillin is only possible throughout the EU with a doctor's prescription. In addition to the tablets, it is also possible to obtain an infusion or suspension with Amoxicillin, whereby the active ingredient content is between 50 and a maximum of 1000 mg per unit, depending on the prescribed medication. Amoxicillin is the generic name of the drug, which is sold under the trade names Clamoxyl, Amoxilan, Amoxi 1A Pharma or Amoxi HEXAL, among others. Amoxicillin is also available in dual therapy as Augmentin (Amoxicillin plus Clavulanic acid). Clavulanic acid inhibits the enzyme beta-lactamase, which would otherwise break down amoxicillin. This allows Amoxicillin to work more strongly. Since this fixed combination is considered to have a slightly higher probability of damaging the liver, it is especially important that older patients over 60 or people who have already been diagnosed with liver dysfunction have their blood and liver values checked regularly.
