pharmachologic effect

The combination of amoxicillin with clavulanic acid is unique in its own way. Amoxicillin and other antibiotics of the penicillin group cause the death of bacterial cells by binding to their surface receptors. However, most bacteria during the use of the drug have learned to destroy this antibiotic using the beta-lactamase enzyme. Clavulanic acid reduces the activity of this enzyme, due to which of this drug a very wide spectrum of action. It even kills bacteria strains that are resistant to amoxicillin. The drug has a pronounced bacteriostatic and bactericidal effect on all types of streptococci (with the exception of methicillin-resistant strains), echinococci, listeria. Sensitive to amoxiclav and gram-negative bacteria:
  • bordetella;
  • brucella;
  • klebsiella;
  • moraxella;
  • Proteus;
  • shigella;
  • clostridium and others.
Regardless of the combination with food intake, the agent is well absorbed into the body, the maximum concentration of the drug is reached already in the first hour after administration. Has a high rate and volume of distribution in the body - in the lungs, pleural, synovial fluids, tonsils, prostate, muscle and adipose tissue, sinuses, middle ear. In the tissues the most high concentrations amoxiclava are observed one hour after the maximum in blood plasma. It passes into breast milk in insignificant quantities. Amoxicillin is partially destroyed in the body, and clavulanic acid is metabolized very intensively. It is excreted by the kidneys. Insignificant excretion is carried out by the lungs and intestines. The half-life for healthy kidneys is 1-1.5 hours. It is slightly excreted from the blood during dialysis.

Indications

The use of this antibiotic is prescribed for the treatment of various infectious diseases:
  • Diseases respiratory tract- sinusitis (acute or chronic), otitis media, retropharyngeal abscess, bronchitis, tonsilopharyngitis, pneumonia and others.
  • Diseases urinary tract- cystitis, pyelonephritis, urethritis and others.
  • Gynecological infections, endometritis, septic abortion, salpingitis, and others.
  • Inflammation of the biliary tract (cholangitis, cholecystitis).
  • Connective and bone tissue infections.
  • Infections of soft tissues and skin (bites, phlegmon, wound infection).
  • Odontogenic infections in which the pathogen enters the body through cavities in the teeth.

Tablets and powder Amoxiclav - instructions for use

Amoxiclav is prescribed in different ways. The method of administration depends on the age and weight of the patient, the severity of the infection, the condition of the kidneys and liver. The optimal time to use the drug is when you start eating. The course of taking this medication lasts from 5 to 14 days, it cannot be used longer.

For children under 12 years old- 40 mg per kilogram of body weight per day.
For children weighing more than 40 kg, the drug is prescribed as for adults.

Adults are prescribed: 375 mg tablets are taken every 8 hours, 24 hours a day, 625 mg tablets every 12 hours. When prescribing medication for treatment severe infections doses of 625 mg every 8 hours or 1000 mg every 12 hours are used.

It should be noted that the tablets may differ in the proportions of the active ingredients. Therefore, you cannot replace the 625 mg tablet (500 g of amoxicillin and 125 g of clavulanic acid) with two 375 mg tablets (250 g of amoxicillin and 125 g of clavulanic acid).

For the treatment of odontogenic infections, the following scheme is used. 375 mg tablets are taken every 8 hours, around the clock. Tablets 625 mg after 12 hours.

If it is necessary to use a drug for the treatment of patients with kidney disease, the creatinine content in the urine must be taken into account. Patients with liver diseases require constant monitoring of its function.

Powder for preparation of suspensions is used for newborns and children up to 3 months... Dosing is carried out using a special measuring pipette or spoon. The dosage is 30 mg of amoxicillin per kilogram of body weight, twice a day.

For children over three months old for mild and moderate infections - 20 mg / kg of weight, and for severe - 40 mg / kg. The second dose is also used in the treatment of deep infections - otitis media, sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia. An instruction is attached to this medicine, in which there are special tables that allow you to calculate the doses of the drug necessary for children as accurately as possible.

The maximum permissible daily dose of amoxicillin for children is 45 mg / kg of body weight, for adults - 6 grams. Clavulanic acid can be taken per day no more than 600 mg for adults and 10 mg / kg for children.

Amoxiclav for angina

Antibiotics for angina are prescribed only in cases of moderate and high severity. Amoxiclav as an antibiotic penicillin series, is often prescribed for tonsillitis. Its use is indicated only when the bacterial form of the infection has been confirmed, and the pathogenic microflora has been tested for sensitivity to this drug. In the treatment of angina in children, suspensions are used, for adults - tablets. In severe cases, injections of the drug are used.

It must be remembered that antibiotics should not be used for a long time, as this increases the resistance of pathogenic microflora to them.

Compatibility with other medicines

  • It is undesirable to use Amoxiclav and drugs at the same time indirect anticoagulants... This can cause an increase in prothrombin time.
  • The interaction of Amoxiclav and allopurinol raises the risk of developing exanthema.
  • Amoxiclav increases the toxicity of metatrexate.
  • You can not use amoxicillin and rifampicin at the same time - these are antagonist preprates, combined use weakens the antibacterial effect of both.
  • You can not prescribe amoxiclav together with tetracyclines or macrolides (these are bacteriostatic antibiotics), as well as sulfonamides due to a decrease in the effectiveness of this drug.
  • Taking Amoxiclav reduces the effectiveness of contraceptives in pills.

Comparison with other drugs

What is better Amoxiclava?

When choosing an antibiotic for the treatment of any infection, it is necessary to be guided by the results of testing the pathogenic microflora for sensitivity to a specific antibiotic. It makes no sense to use a drug that does not kill bacteria - that is, does not cure. Therefore, the best antibiotic to which the patient's pathogenic microflora is sensitive will be.

Amoxiclav or amoxicillin?

Amoxiclav is more effective drug than amoxicillin, since many pathogenic microorganisms have developed immunity to this antibiotic and have learned to destroy it, preventing it from showing its bactericidal effect. The addition of clavulanic acid to amoxicillin made this antibiotic much more active, expanding its range of action.

Amoxiclav or Augmentin?

Augmentin - an analogue of Amoxiclav, contains the same active ingredients.

Amoxiclav or Flemoxin?

Flemoxin is a drug containing only amoxicillin. Without the use of clavulonic acid, it has a smaller spectrum of action, therefore it is used only if the bacterial microflora is sensitive to this antibiotic.

Amoxiclav or Sumamed?

The composition of Sumamed includes the antibiotic azithromycin, which has a wide spectrum of action. The choice should be made on the basis of checking the sensitivity of the pathogenic microflora to these two antibiotics. The side effects are similar.

Alcohol compatibility

During treatment with Amoxiclav, it is forbidden to take alcohol. Reception alcoholic beverages significantly reduces the antibacterial effect of the medication.

PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
The drug is a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. Amoxicillin is a semi-synthetic penicillin (beta-lactam antibiotic) that inhibits one or more enzymes (often referred to as penicillin-binding proteins, PBPs) in the biosynthetic pathway of peptidoglycan, which is an integral structural component of the bacterial cell wall. Inhibition of peptidoglycan synthesis leads to a loss of cell wall strength, which usually leads to lysis and death of microbial cells. Amoxicillin is destroyed by the action of beta-lactamases produced by resistant bacteria, thus the spectrum of activity of amoxicillin alone does not include microorganisms that produce these enzymes. Clavulanic acid is a beta-lactam structurally related to penicillins. It inhibits some beta-lactamases, thereby preventing the inactivation of amoxicillin and expands its spectrum of activity, including bacteria that are usually resistant to amoxicillin, as well as to other penicillins and cephalosporins. By itself, clavulanic acid has no clinically significant antibacterial effect. The drug has a bactericidal effect in vivo on the following microorganisms: Gram-positive aerobes. Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes. Gram-negative aerobes. Enterobacter spp, Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenza, Species of the genus Klebsiella, Moraxella catarrhalis (Branhamella catarrhalis). The drug has an in vitro bactericidal effect on the following microorganisms (however, clinical dependence is still unknown). Gram-positive aerobes. BacilHs anthracis. Species of the genus Corynebacterium, Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecium, Listeria monocytogenes, Nocardia asteroids, Coagulase-negative staphylococci (including Staphylococcus epidermidis) Streptococcus agalaciiae. Other species of the genus Streptococcus Streptococcus viridians. Gram-positive anaerobes. Species of the genus Clostridium, Species of the genus Peptococcus, Species of the genus Peptostreptococcus. Gram-negative aerobes. Bordetella pertussis, Species of the genus Brucella, Gardnerella vaginalis, Helicobacter pylori, Species of the genus Legionella, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Neisseria meningitides, Pasteurella multocida, Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris. Gram-negative anaerobes. Species of the genus Bacteroides (including Bacteroides fragilis), Species of the genus Fusobacterium. Others: Borrella burgdorferi, Chlamydia spp. , Leptospira icterohaemorrhagiae, Treponema pallidum. Some strains of these bacterial species produce beta-lactamases, which contribute to their insensitivity to monotherapy with amoxicillin. Pharmacokinetics. The main pharmacokinetic parameters of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid are similar. Amoxicillin and clavulanic acid dissolve well in aqueous solutions with a physiological pH value and after taking the drug inside are quickly and completely absorbed from gastrointestinal tract(GIT), The absorption of the active substances amoxicillin and clavulanic acid is optimal if taken at the beginning of a meal. The bioavailability of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid after oral administration is about 70%. Peak plasma concentrations are reached approximately 1 hour after ingestion. The maximum concentration values ​​for amoxicillin (depending on the dose) are 3-12 μg / ml, for clavulanic acid - about 2 μg / ml. When using the drug, the concentration of amoxicillin / clavulanic acid in plasma is similar to those for oral administration of the corresponding doses of amoxicillin or clavulanic acid separately in equivalent doses. Both components are characterized by a good volume of distribution in various organs, tissues and body fluids (including in the lungs, organs abdominal cavity; adipose, bone and muscle tissues; pleural, synovial and peritoneal fluids; in the skin, bile, urine, purulent discharge, sputum, in the interstitial fluid). Plasma protein binding is moderate: 25% for clavulanic acid and 18% for amoxicillin. The volume of distribution is approximately 0.3-0.4 l / kg for amoxicillin and approximately 0.2 l / kg for clavulanic acid. Amoxicillin and clavulanic acid do not cross the blood-brain barrier in non-inflamed meninges... Amoxicillin (like most penicillins) is excreted in breast milk. V breast milk also found trace amounts of clavulanic acid. Amoxicillin and clavulanic acid cross the placental barrier. Amoxicillin is excreted primarily by the kidneys, while clavulanic acid is excreted by both renal and extrarenal mechanisms. After a single oral administration of one tablet of 250 mg / 125 mg or 500 mg / 125 mg, approximately 60-70% of amoxicillin and 40-65% of clavulanic acid are excreted unchanged in the urine during the first 6 hours. About 10-25% of the initial dose of amoxicillin is excreted in the urine as inactive penicillic acid. Clavulanic acid in the human body undergoes intensive metabolism with the formation of 2,5-dihydro-4- (2-hydroxyethyl) -5-oxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid and 1-amino-4-hydroxy-butan-2-one and is excreted in urine and feces. The average elimination half-life of amoxicillin / clavulanic acid is approximately one hour, and the average total clearance is approximately 25 l / h in healthy patients. In the course of various studies, it was found that the excretion of amoxicillin in the urine within 24 hours is approximately 50-85%, clavulanic acid - 27-60%. The greatest amount of clavulanic acid is excreted within the first 2 hours after ingestion. Patients with impaired liver function. In patients with severe renal insufficiency, the half-life is increased to 7.5 hours for amoxicillin and up to 4.5 hours for clavulanic acid. For patients with impaired liver function, the dose of the drug should be selected with caution, constant monitoring of the liver is necessary. Both components are removed by hemodialysis and minor amounts by peritoneal dialysis.

INDICATIONS FOR USE
Infections caused by sensitive strains of microorganisms: infections of the upper respiratory tract and ENT organs (including acute and chronic sinusitis, acute and chronic otitis media, retropharyngeal abscess, tonsillitis, pharyngitis); lower respiratory tract infections (incl. acute bronchitis with bacterial superinfection, Chronical bronchitis, pneumonia); urinary tract infections; infections in gynecology; infections of the skin and soft tissues, as well as wounds from human and animal bites; bone and connective tissue infections; biliary tract infections (cholecystitis, cholangitis); odontogenic infections.

CONTRAINDICATIONS
Hypersensitivity to the components of the drug; a history of hypersensitivity to penicillins, cephalosporins and other beta-lactam antibiotics, cholestatic jaundice and / or other liver dysfunctions caused by taking amoxicillin / clavulanic acid in history; Infectious mononucleosis and lymphocytic leukemia.

SIDE EFFECT
From the side digestive system: loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, gastritis, stomatitis, glossitis, black “hairy” tongue, darkening of tooth enamel, hemorrhagic colitis (can also develop after therapy), enterocolitis, pseudomembranous colitis, liver dysfunction, increased the activity of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and / or the level of bilirubin in the blood plasma, liver failure (more often in the elderly, men, with prolonged therapy), cholestatic jaundice, hepatitis. Allergic reactions: pruritus, urticaria, erythematous rashes, exudative erythema multiforme, angioedema, anaphylactic shock, allergic vasculitis, exfoliative dermatitis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis, disease, similar to epidermal pustulosis. From the hematopoietic and lymphatic system: reversible leukopenia "(including neutropenia), platelet singing, hemolytic anemia, a reversible increase in prothrombin over time (with joint application with anticoagulants), a reversible increase in bleeding time, eosinophilia, pancytopenia, thrombocytosis, agranulocytosis. From the central nervous system: dizziness, headache, convulsions (can occur in patients with impaired renal function when taking high doses of the drug), hyperactivity. Feelings of anxiety, insomnia, behavioral changes, agitation. From the urinary system: interstitial nephritis, crystalluria, hematuria. Miscellaneous: candidiasis and other types of superinfection.

INTERACTION
Antacids, glucosamine, laxatives, aminoglycosides slow absorption, ascorbic acid increases absorption. Diuretics, allopurinol, phenylbutazone; nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and other drugs that block tubular secretion (probenecid) increase the concentration of amoxicillin (clavulanic acid is excreted mainly by glomerular filtration). The simultaneous use of the drug and methotrexate increases the toxicity of methotrexate. Prescribing in conjunction with allopurinol increases the incidence of exanthema. Simultaneous use with disulfiram should be avoided. Reduces the effectiveness of drugs, in the process of metabolism of which para-aminobenzoic acid is formed, ethinyl estradiol - the risk of bleeding "breakthrough". The literature describes rare cases of an increase in the international normalized ratio (MHO) in patients with the combined use of acenocoumarol or warfarin and amoxicillin. If necessary, the simultaneous use with anti-coagulants and protobin time or MHO, it should be carefully iterated when prescribing or discontinuing the drug. The combination with rifampicin is antagonistic (mutual weakening of the antibacterial effect). The drug should not be used simultaneously in combination with bacteriostatic antibiotics (macrolides, tetracyclines), sulfonamides due to a possible decrease in the effectiveness of the drug. The drug reduces the effectiveness of oral contraceptives.

DOSAGE AND METHOD OF APPLICATION
Inside. The dosage regimen is set individually depending on the age, body weight, kidney function of the patient, as well as the severity of the infection. The drug is recommended to be taken at the beginning of a meal for optimal absorption and to reduce possible side effects from the digestive system. The course of treatment is 5-14 days. The duration of the course of treatment is determined by the attending physician. The course should not continue for more than 14 days without a second medical examination. Children under 12 years old. The dose is prescribed depending on the age and body weight. Recommended dosage regimen: 40 mg / kg / day in 3 divided doses. Children weighing 40 kg or more should be given the same doses as adults. For children under 6 years of age, it is more preferable to take a suspension of the drug. Adults and children over 12 years old (or more than 40 kg of body weight). Usual dose for mild to moderate heavy course infection is 1 tablet every 12 hours, in the case of severe infections and respiratory tract infections - 1 tablet every 8 hours. Since tablets of a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid of 250 mg + 125 mg and 500 mg-125 mg contain the same amount of clavulanic acid -125 mg, 2 tablets of 250 mg + 125 mg are not equivalent to 1 tablet of 500 mg + 125 mg. Dosage for odontogenic infections: 1 tablet every 12 hours for 5 days. Patients with impaired renal function. Dose adjustments are based on the maximum recommended dose of amoxicillin and are based on creatinine clearance (CC) values. Adults and children over 12 years old (or more than 40 kg of body weight). CC> 30 ml / min: dose adjustment is not required. In case of anuria, the interval between dosing should be increased to 48 hours or more. Tablets 875 mg + 125 mg should be used only in patients with CC> 30 ml / min. Patients with impaired liver function. The drug should be taken with caution. It is necessary to carry out regular monitoring of liver function.

OVERDOSE
