Auglavin should be used in the same way as prescribed by your doctor for Amoksiklav. The dose of an antibiotic depends not only on body weight or age, but also on the type and severity of the infection, the susceptibility of the microorganism causing the infection and the patient's general health.
Too little of an antibiotic can be ineffective and contribute to the development of bacterial resistance, while too much can be harmful and cause side effects.
If you are unable to contact the doctor who prescribed this antibiotic, you can use the teleconsultation:
