The use of amoxicillin (the active ingredient in Ospamox) is not recommended in people who have had a severe immediate hypersensitivity reaction (i.e. anaphylaxis) to another beta-lactam medicine, e.g. cefuroxime (the active ingredient in Zinnat). In case of a mild allergic reaction, your doctor may consider using this antibiotic in a person with an allergy to cefuroxime. I enclose the leaflet of the drug and useful materials: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/58147/ospamox-proszek-do-wytworzenia-zawiesiny/ulotka https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/fakty-i-mity-o-antybiotykach https://www.gdziepolek.pl/blog/antybiotyki-czy-przestana-dzialac

To @Kkkk: Thank you for your vigilance - in the second line it is correctly stated that Zinnat contains cefuroxime, while in the first line I wrote about amoxicillin contained in the drug Ospamox. The error has already been corrected.
Zinnat doesn't have amoxicillin in it hahaha good pharmacist
