Amoxicillin Capsules contain amoxicillin as the active ingredient which belongs to a class of antibiotics called 'penicillins'. The capsules are used to treat infections caused by bacteria that are susceptible to amoxicillin. These include: bronchitis, pneumonia, middle ear, gynaecological, urinary tract, skin (e.g. cellulitis), meningitis, typhoid, dental abscess, blood poisoning, heart inflammation. These ingredients may trigger hives since it can cause allergic reactions.
