Amoxicillin v AmpicillinBoth Amoxicillin and Ampicillin can be taken by mouth, and they both have similar anti-microbial effectiveness. However, Amoxicillin seems to have better absorption into the blood stream.

There is also Augmentin, (Amoxicillin plus clavulanate, which helps with increased availability of the drug in the body), and is intended more for drug-resistant bacteria. This drug DOES come in pill form.

Finally, there is Unasyn (Ampicillin plus sulbactam, which also helps with increased availability of the drug in the body). This drug is only available in IV form.
