The popular antibiotic Augmentin is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, skin infections, and ear infections. It belongs to a class of medications called tetracyclines. It works by preventing the growth of bacteria and is commonly prescribed for treating infections such as ear infections, sinusitis, and pneumonia. The drug is typically taken orally, usually once a day for two weeks. The drug can also be taken with or without food. Augmentin can be prescribed for children with a history of stomach or intestinal infections, as well as for other medical conditions.
