Antibiotics

Antibiotics are crucial medicines used to fight bacterial infections. They work by killing bacteria or stopping their growth. Choosing the right antibiotic depends on the infection type, location, and bacterial resistance patterns. This category includes a wide range of antibiotics that target different bacteria and conditions.

Amoxil (amoxicillin) is a widely used antibiotic. It belongs to the penicillin class. It treats ear infections, throat infections, pneumonia, and urinary tract infections. Amoxil is often chosen because it is generally safe and well-tolerated.
