AMOXCIL 50% WSP

DESCRIPTION

Amoxycillin is a semi-synthetic penicillin with a broad bactericidal activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The range of effect includes: Streptococci, not penicillinase producing Staphylococci, Bacillus anthracis, Corynebacterium spp., Clostridium spp., Brucella spp., Haemophilus spp., Pasteurella spp., Salmonella spp., Moraxella spp., E. coli, Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae, Fusiformis, Bordetella spp., Diplococci, Micrococci and Sphaerophorus necrophorus.

The bacterial activity is governed by an inhibition of the formation of the cell. The excretion takes mainly place via the urine and bile so that amoxycillin is also useful for the treatment of renal and Salmonella infections in the intra-hepatic billiary tree.
