AMOXIL PAEDIATRIC PREPARATIONS 1 AMOXIL PAEDIATRIC PREPARATIONS _Amoxicillin _ CONSUMER MEDICINE INFORMATION WHAT IS IN THIS LEAFLET? Please read this leaflet carefully before you give AMOXIL to your child. This leaflet answers some common questions about AMOXIL. It does not contain all of the available information. It does not take the place of talking to your child’s doctor or pharmacist. All medicines have risks and benefits. Sometimes new risks are found even when a medicine has been used for many years. Your child’s doctor has weighed the expected benefits of your child taking AMOXIL against the risks this medicine could have for your child. AMOXIL must be given to your child as instructed. If you have any concerns about this medicine, ask your child’s doctor or pharmacist. Keep this leaflet with the medicine. You may need to read it again. WHAT IS AMOXIL USED FOR? AMOXIL contains a penicillin called amoxicillin as the active ingredient. Amoxicillin belongs to the penicillin group of antibiotics. AMOXIL is used to treat a range of infections caused by bacteria. These may be infections of the chest (pneumonia), tonsils (tonsillitis), sinuses (sinusitis), inner ear (otitis media), urinary and genital tract or skin and fleshy tissues. AMOXIL works by killing the bacteria that cause these infections. AMOXIL can also be used to prevent infection. Your child’s doctor may have prescribed AMOXIL for another reason. There is no evidence that AMOXIL is addictive. BEFORE YOU GIVE AMOXIL _DO NOT GIVE AMOXIL IF: _ • your child is allergic to penicillin or similar types of antibiotics such as cephalosporins. If your child has ever had an allergic reaction (such as a rash) when taking an antibiotic, tell the doctor before any AMOXIL is given. • your child has ever had an allergic reaction to amoxicillin or any of the ingredients listed toward the end of this leaflet. (See "Ingredients") • the expiry date (EXP) printed on the pack has passed. • the packaging is torn or shows signs of tampering. _TELL YOUR CH Lestu allt skjalið
