How Cefixime is better than amoxicillin?
I can't tell you scientifically, but I've taken ampicillin, which has the same, a little bit milder side effects than amoxicillin. and I've also taken cefixime, and cefixime had NO side effects on me whatsoever. and it worked well. ampicillin made me feel mentally confused and tired and darn nauseous. so if you're wondering what to take - i wouldn't give it a thought - would take cefixime over amoxicillin any day, because after all they both work on the same (wide) range of bacteria!

Cefixime comes under beta lactum antibiotic category and gets degrade inpresence of beta lactumase enzyme, bacterias have developed resistance against cefixime by producing beta lactamase and ESBLs. Clavulanic acid is an irreversible inhibitor of beta lactamase enzyme and have mild antibiotic activity. when this combination is used, clavulanic acid inhibits beta lactamase enzyme and allow cefixime work as a bacteriocidal. the combination is very useful against cefixime resistant becteria. more research work is required to understand the further use of this combination and also to find out the superiority of this combination over Amoxi+Clav combination.
