Which is stronger pennicilin or amoxycillin?

Answer 1

The active ingredient in Augmentin (co-amoxiclav) that fights infection IS penicillin, so "stronger" is difficult to quantify.

The advantage of Augmentin over penicillin is that it contains potassium clavulanate, which causes a large range of effectiveness against bacteria, including some which are seen as amoxicllin resistant.

Answer 2

It depends on type of infection. For gram negative bacteria ampicillin is better than penicillin. For gram positive and gram negative coccus type of bacteria and gram positive bacillus type of bacteria penicillin is better.

Answer 3

Yes, it is. Generic Name: amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium

Answer 4

I don't think so, they are different types of antibiotics for different things. It depends on what you are using it for.
