Guest guest Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 well, what i know is amoxicillin is better absorbed than pencillin so for children it is better to prescribe amoxycillin and for abcess in children it is the first choice or phenoxymethyl pencillin and if patient is allergic to pn then metronidazole.(This is what i have studied in Drug prescribing document)In root canal therapy ,we normally dont prescribe antibiotics because chances of antibiotic resistance is more and pencillin v being a narrow specturum ab which includes most of the bacteria associated with endo infections,So,it is the choice of drug for its efficacy and low toxicity.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 but the doses should be exactly the same as in the refrence for ex. amoxicillin 250mg / 3 times not 2 or 4 times or this is no important From: Kanika Kohli <kanika_sahil@...> " " < > Sent: Wednesday, February 15, 2012 6:36 PM Subject: Re: antibiotics ore well, what i know is amoxicillin is better absorbed than pencillin so for children it is better to prescribe amoxycillin and for abcess in children it is the first choice or phenoxymethyl pencillin and if patient is allergic to pn then metronidazole.(This is what i have studied in Drug prescribing document)In root canal therapy ,we normally dont prescribe antibiotics because chances of antibiotic resistance is more and pencillin v being a narrow specturum ab which includes most of the bacteria associated with endo infections,So,it is the choice of drug for its efficacy and low toxicity.
