Always follow your doctor’s instructions precisely. Amoxicillin dosage depends on your weight, age, and the specific infection being treated. Typical adult dosages range from 250mg to 500mg three times daily, while children’s dosages are weight-based. Your doctor will calculate the correct amount.
Amoxicillin is usually taken orally with a glass of water. Take it at evenly spaced intervals throughout the day, ideally with food to minimize stomach upset. Complete the entire course of antibiotics, even if you feel better before finishing. Stopping early can lead to recurring infections.
Store Amoxicillin at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Check the expiration date on the packaging. Discard any unused medication after the expiration date. Never use expired antibiotics.
