🐾 Amoxicillin suspension 15% Livisto vial, 100 ml

Amoxicillin is a semi-synthetic antibiotic belonging to the β-lactam antibiotics. It is characterized by a wide spectrum of bactericidal action against Gram-positive (Actinomyces spp., Bacillus anthracis, Clostridium spp., Corynebacterium spp., Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus spp, Streptococcus spp.) And Gram-negative microorganisms (Actinobacillus spp., Bordetella bronchiseptica, E. coli, Salmonella spp., Fusobacterium spp., Haemophilus spp., Moaxella spp., Pasteurella spp., Proteus mirabilis). It has no effect on penicillin-inducing strains of microorganisms from the genera Klebsiella and Enterobacter, as well as Pseudomonas.  Amoxicillin interferes with bacterial cell wall synthesis by inhibiting transpeptidase and carboxypeptidase enzymes and causing disruption of osmotic balance, which leads to death of the bacterium at the growth stage.
