DISPERMOX vs PENTIDS '250'
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Amoxicillin inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), inhibiting transpeptidase activity and disrupting peptidoglycan cross-linking.
Penicillin G binds to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the bacterial cell wall, inhibiting transpeptidase activity and cell wall synthesis, leading to bacterial lysis.
Adults: 1 g (as amoxicillin 875 mg + clavulanate 125 mg) orally every 12 hours for 7-10 days.
250 mg orally every 8 hours.

Renal excretion 80% as unchanged drug, biliary/fecal 10%.
Primarily renal (60-90% as unchanged drug via glomerular filtration and tubular secretion); minor biliary/fecal (10-30%)
