Ampiclox vs amoxicillin, which treats infections more effectively?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on infection: Whether or not an antibiotic or combination works on an infection depends on the infecting organism ; to what antibiotics that organism is susceptible. Ampiclox is Ampicillin plus cloxacillin which extends the spectrum to better treat staphylococcus (not mrsa). Amoxicillin is a 3x daily ampicillin.
