Effectiveness
How Augmentin Xr Affects PatientsAmoxicillin works by blocking the proteins that help create the cell walls of bacteria. This means that it is effective for a long time and can be taken twice a day. It is a relatively safe drug, but patients should be aware of the risks of anaphylaxis, C. Diff infections, and drug resistance.
How Augmentin Xr works in the bodyAmoxicillin blocks proteins that help bacteria build their cell walls. Without these proteins, bacteria cannot repair or build new cell walls. This leads to the death of the bacteria.
When to interrupt dosage
The prescribed dosage of Augmentin Xr is contingent upon the diagnosed condition, for instance Lower Respiratory Tract Infection (LRTI), Duodenal Ulcer and Stomach Ulcer. The amount of dosage fluctuates as per the technique of delivery (e.g. For suspension - Oral or Oral) noted in the table beneath.Condition

3/27/2015 I started taking this medication for a sinus infection and have experienced severe stomach pain, nausea, and diarrhea since the first day. I take it with food but still experience issues.

1.7Patient Review
1/20/2013 I was on a 10-day course of this medication for sinusitis, otitis media, and pharyngitis. However, on day four my tongue and gums started swelling up painfully and the area became discolored. I called my doctor and they told me to stop taking the medication immediately. While it did help with the infections, the side effects were not worth it. I've been off the drug for four days now and I'm still experiencing pain and difficulty eating.
1.3Patient Review
11/11/2012 I started taking this medication for my sinus infection and, within days, I developed a terrible stomachache that has only gotten worse. Additionally, I've had a pounding headache since starting the antibiotic which has only gotten worse. My cough has improved but overall I feel much worse.
1.3Patient Review
4/6/2019 I was given this drug for strep throat. My strep throat symptoms cleared up within a day. But three hours after starting the antibiotics I started having diarrhea. The diarrhea got so bad I experienced 22 episodes in 24 hours before finally calling my doctor and stopping the medication.

3/26/2013 I do not recommend this drug. I have seen it lead to death firsthand.
Patient Q&A Section about augmentin xr
These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.What is the difference between Augmentin and Augmentin XR?
"This is because AUGMENTIN XR contains a lower dose of clavulanic acid than the other AUGMENTIN tablets. The Extended Release Tablet also provides a longer duration of amoxicillin concentrations in the blood than the immediate-release Tablets."
Answered by AI
What is Augmentin XR used for?
"It will not work for viral infections (such as common cold, flu).
The antibiotic Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid is a combination penicillin-type antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria. This antibiotic can only treat bacterial infections and won't work on viral infections like the common cold or flu."
Answered by AI
Is Augmentin the strongest antibiotic?
"Amoxicillin is an antibiotic. It is used to treat infections. Augmentin is an antibiotic. It contains amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. Augmentin works against more types of bacteria than amoxicillin alone. In this regard, it could be considered stronger than amoxicillin."
