Also, patients with phenylketonuria should not take the drug, since the suspension contains aspartame.

Caution should be exercised in treating children with impaired liver and kidney function. Children with similar diagnoses should be treated with the drug exclusively under the constant supervision of specialists in a hospital.

In infectious mononucleosis, a severe rash on the body, similar to bark rashes, is provoked by taking the Augmentin 400 suspension for children. The dosage can be any.

Taking the medication is also contraindicated in the first trimester of pregnancy. Further, if there is an urgent need for antibiotic therapy, Augmentin can be used, but in rare cases. At the moment, the effect of the drug on the baby’s body has not yet been fully studied, but it is already known that the active substance can penetrate through the mother’s placenta.

Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

According to Wikipedia, Amoxicillin is a bactericidal agent that is effective against a wide range of pathogenic and potentially pathogenic microorganisms and is a semi-synthetic antibiotic of the penicillin group .

By suppressing transpeptidase and disrupting the production of murein (an essential component of bacterial cell walls) during division and growth, it thereby provokes lysis (destruction) of bacteria .

Amoxicillin is destroyed by β-lactamases , so its antibacterial activity does not apply to microorganisms that produce β-lactamases .

Acting as a competitive and in most cases irreversible inhibitor, clavulanic acid bacterial cell walls and cause inactivation of enzymes that are located both inside the cell and at its border.

Clavulanate forms stable inactivated complexes with β-lactamases , and this in turn prevents the destruction of amoxicillin .

The antibiotic Augmentin is effective against:

  • Gram (+) aerobes: pyogenic streptococci of groups A and B, pneumococci , Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis (with the exception of methicillin-resistant strains), saprophytic staphylococcus , etc.
  • Gram (-) aerobes: Pfeiffer bacillus , pertussis bacillus , Gardnerella vaginalis , Vibrio cholerae , etc.
  • Gram (+) and Gram (-) anaerobes: bacteroides , fusobacteria , prevotella , etc.
  • Other microorganisms: chlamydia , spirochetes , treponema pallidum , etc.

After taking Augmentin orally, both active components included in its composition are quickly and completely absorbed from the digestive tract. Absorption is optimal if the tablets or syrup are taken during meals (at the beginning of the meal).

Both when taken orally and when Augmentin solution is administered intravenously, therapeutic concentrations of the active components of the drug are found in all tissues and interstitial fluid.

Both active components bind weakly to plasma proteins (up to 25% of amoxicillin trihydrate and no more than 18% of clavulanic acid ). Augmentin accumulation was not detected in any of the internal organs.

Amoxicillin is extensively metabolized in the body and is excreted by the kidneys , through the digestive tract and as carbon dioxide in exhaled air. From 10 to 25% of the received dose of amoxicillin is excreted by the kidneys in the form of penicillic acid , which is its inactive metabolite .

Clavulanate is excreted both by the kidneys and through extrarenal mechanisms.

What is more effective: Augmentin or Suprax?

The therapeutic effect of Suprax is explained by cefixime. The medicine belongs to the 3rd generation cephalosporins. In the pharmacy, Suprax is also available in the form of a suspension, which is prohibited for children under six months old if they are allergic to the composition of the medication, penicillin and cephalosporin antibiotics.

Antimicrobial agents differ in their spectrum of antibacterial activity, so the doctor must decide which drug is better.

Amoxiclav, Flemoxin Solutab, Suprax - analogues of Augmentin

Indications for use

Indications for the use of a combination of amoxicillin trihydrate and clavulanic acid are infections caused by microorganisms .

Treatment with Augmentin is also allowed for infections caused by the activity of microorganisms sensitive to the action of amoxicillin , as well as mixed infections caused by bacteria sensitive to amoxicillin and bacteria that produce β-lactamase and are characterized by sensitivity to the combination of active substances of the drug.

On the Internet there are often questions “What are Augmentin tablets for? ” or “What does Augmentin syrup treat?”.

The scope of the drug is quite extensive. It is prescribed for the following infectious and inflammatory diseases :

  • for infections affecting the upper and lower respiratory tract (including ENT infections );
  • for infections affecting the genitourinary tract ;
  • for odontogenic (affecting the oral cavity) infections ;
  • for gynecological infections ;
  • for gonorrhea ;
  • for infections affecting the skin and soft tissues ;
  • for infections affecting bone tissue (including if it is necessary to prescribe long-term therapy to the patient);
  • for other infections of a mixed type (for example, after a septic abortion , for sepsis in the postpartum period, for septicemia (sepsis without metastases), peritonitis ; for sepsis caused by intra-abdominal infection ; for infections developing after surgery ).

Augmentin is often used for preventive purposes before major surgical operations on the head, neck, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, biliary tract, on organs located in the pelvic cavity , as well as during the procedure of implantation of internal organs .

Additional recommendations

Before starting the use of Augmentin, it is necessary to collect the patient's medical history in order to identify possible hypersensitivity reactions to penicillin, cephalosporin and other components.

Taking Augmentin suspension may stain the patient's teeth. To avoid the development of such an effect, it is enough to follow the basic rules of oral hygiene - brushing your teeth, using mouthwash.

Taking Augmentin can cause dizziness, so during therapy you should refrain from driving vehicles and performing work that requires increased concentration.

Augmentin cannot be used if an infectious form of mononucleosis is suspected.

Augmentin is well tolerated and has low toxicity. If long-term use of the medicine is required, then it is necessary to periodically check the functioning of the kidneys and liver.

Contraindications

Augmentin in all dosage forms is contraindicated:

  • patients with hypersensitivity to one or both active components of the drug, to any of its excipients, as well as to β-lactams (that is, to antibiotics from the penicillin and cephalosporin );
  • patients whose Augmentin therapy was preceded by episodes of jaundice or who had a history of functional liver due to the use of a combination of active substances of the drug.

An additional contraindication to the use of powder for the preparation of an oral suspension with a dosage of active substances of 125 + 31.25 mg is PKU ( phenylketonuria ).

The powder used for the preparation of oral suspension with a dosage of active substances (200 + 28.5) and (400 + 57) mg is contraindicated:

  • with PKU ;
  • patients with impaired renal , in which the Rehberg test is below 30 ml per minute;
  • children under three months of age.

An additional contraindication to the use of tablets with a dosage of active substances (250 + 125) and (500 + 125) mg is age under 12 years and/or weight less than 40 kilograms.

Tablets with a dosage of active substances 875 + 125 mg are contraindicated:

  • if the functional activity of the kidneys ( Rehberg test ​​are below 30 ml per minute);
  • children under 12 years of age;
  • patients whose body weight does not exceed 40 kg.

Which is preferable: Sumamed or Augmentin?

The therapeutic effect of Sumamed is explained by azithromycin. The antibiotic stops the growth and reproduction of streptococci, staphylococci, gonococci, Haemophilus influenzae, chlamydia, and mycoplasma. Sumamed in suspension can be administered to patients over 6 months of age. It is contraindicated in case of allergies to its composition, fructose intolerance, severe liver and kidney diseases. It is not recommended in case of hypersensitivity to other macrolides and ketolides, glucose and galactose malabsorption, sucrase-isomaltase deficiency. Sumamed should not be combined with ergotamine and dihydroergotamine.

This antibiotic should be taken once a day for the entire 72 hours, but this does not mean that it is preferable since it has a different spectrum of antimicrobial activity and can provoke severe adverse reactions.

Side effects

Side effects of Augmentin can occur in various systems and individual organs. The most common reactions that occur during treatment with the drug are:

  • candidiasis (thrush) of the skin and mucous membranes;
  • diarrhea (very often when taking Augmentin in tablets, often when taking a suspension or administering the drug in injection form);

Infrequently occurring side effects include:

  • dizziness;
  • headache;
  • digestive dysfunction ;
  • moderately pronounced increase in the activity of the liver enzymes alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) ;
  • skin rashes , skin itching , manifestations of urticaria .

In rare cases, the body may react to taking Augmentin:

  • development of reversible leukopenia (including agranulocytosis ); thrombocytopenia ;
  • development of thrombophlebitis at the injection site;
  • multimorphic erythema.

Very rarely the following may develop:

  • hemolytic anemia;
  • conditions characterized by an increase in the duration of bleeding and an increase in the prothrombin index ;
  • reactions from the immune system , which are expressed in the form of angioedema ; a syndrome similar to that seen in serum sickness ; anaphylaxis , allergic vasculitis ;
  • reversible hyperactivity
  • increased convulsive activity ;
  • colitis caused by taking antibiotics , including pseudomembranous (PMC) and hemorrhagic (the likelihood of developing the latter is reduced if Augmentin is administered parenterally);
  • keratinization and proliferation of filiform papillae located on the tongue (a disease known as “black “hairy” tongue”);
  • hepatitis and intrahepatic cholestasis ;
  • Lyell's syndrome;
  • generalized exanthematous pustulosis in acute form;
  • interstitial nephritis;
  • the appearance of salt crystals in the urine ( crystalluria ).

Admission rules

When giving medication to a child, parents need to remember:

  1. The antibiotic should not be taken for less than 5 days.
  2. A child should not take the medication for more than 2 weeks without reviewing the clinical case.
  3. Before giving the drug to a child under 2 years of age, the suspension can be diluted 1:1 with water.

  5. Probenecid may increase the level of amoxicillin in the blood, so it is not recommended to take it during treatment with Augmentin.
  6. When prescribed simultaneously with antibiotic therapy, allopurinol increases the risk of allergic skin reactions.
  7. Augmentin may increase the harmful effects of methotrexate.
  8. The antibiotic may reduce the absorption of estrogens, which may reduce the effectiveness of hormonal birth control pills.
  9. During antibiotic therapy, dosage adjustment of oral coagulants may be necessary.
  10. If anaphylaxis occurs due to taking the suspension, the child should be given epinephrine as soon as possible. If necessary, the doctor may prescribe oxygen therapy and the injection of glucocorticoids into a vein. Airway management may be necessary.
  11. During long-term antibiotic therapy, it is necessary to periodically check the condition of the liver and kidneys and blood tests.
  12. If, due to taking the medication, severe diarrhea with abdominal cramps begins, this may be a sign of pseudomembranous colitis. Therefore, if these symptoms appear, you need to interrupt treatment and consult a doctor.
  13. While taking an antibiotic, you should drink enough fluids to prevent crystalluria.
  14. To prevent discoloration of tooth enamel, it is important to brush your teeth thoroughly during therapy.
  15. Due to taking an antibiotic, there may be false positive results when performing a Coombs test and determining the level of glucose in urine.

  • crystalluria;
  • renal failure;
  • precipitation (deposition) of amoxicillin in the urinary catheter.

When such symptoms appear, the patient is indicated for symptomatic therapy, which also includes correction of the disturbed water-salt balance. The removal of Augmentin from the bloodstream system is also facilitated by hemodialysis .

Interaction

Simultaneous administration of the drug with probenecid :

  • helps reduce tubular secretion of amoxicillin ;
  • provokes an increase in the concentration of amoxicillin in the blood plasma (the effect persists for a long time);
  • does not affect the properties and levels of clavulanic acid in the blood plasma .

The combination of amoxicillin with allopurinol increases the likelihood of developing allergies . data on the interaction of allopurinol simultaneously with the two active components of Augmentan.
