Overview:

DisperMox
(when available)

Pharmacology and use:
Amoxicillin is an antibacterial antibiotic. It is a semisynthetic aminopenicillin and is similar to ampicillin in that it has a broader spectrum of activity than penicillin. Amoxicillin is commonly used to treat infections such as otitis media, bronchitis, sinusitis, endocarditis prophylaxis, Helicobacter pylori, and bacterial cystitis caused by susceptible organisms. For treatment of Infections due to Streptococcus spp. (a- and b-hemolytic strains only), S. pneumoniae, Staphylococcus spp., or H. influenzae, E. coli, P. mirabilis, E. faecalis and H. pylori. (ONLY b-lactamase-negative strains).

Mechanism Of Action:
Amoxicillin binds to penicillin-binding protein 1A (PBP-1A) located inside the bacterial cell well. Penicillins acylate the penicillin-sensitive transpeptidase C-terminal domain by opening the lactam ring. This inactivation of the enzyme prevents the formation of a cross-link of two linear peptidoglycan strands, inhibiting the third and last stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis. Cell lysis is then mediated by bacterial cell wall autolytic enzymes such as autolysins; it is possible that amoxicllin interferes with an autolysin inhibitor.
