title: The use of augmentin in hospitalized and ambulatory children.
abstract: Twenty-six hospitalized and 14 ambulatory children with the most common bacterial infections were treated with augmentin, intravenously and orally. In 90% of the cases in this study a clinical and microbiological cure was obtained. The number of side-effects was no higher than those caused by other drugs. Augmentin provides safe and effective therapy for infections commonly seen in the pediatric population.
