Recommendations

Take Amoxicillin exactly as directed by your doctor.

Amoxicillin dispersible tablets can be dissolved in a glass of water.

Take Amoxicillin exactly as directed. Do not take more or less Amoxicillin or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor. Do not stop taking Amoxicillin without talking to your doctor.

Stopping Amoxicillin too soon may cause bacteria to become resistant to antibiotics.
