A member asked:
Why would augmentin sr not be working for bronchitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Some possibilities: The usual possible reasons a person taking an antibiotic for bronchitis does not see her bronchitis resolve include: her pills labelled Augmentin are not really Augmentin, the dose is too low, it's too soon for improvement, her bronchitis is not caused by bacteria, the bacteria are resistant to Augmentin, there is a second lung problem in addition to bronchitis, what looks like bronchitis is not.
