Amoxicillin
medication Under reviewA penicillin-type antibiotic used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections.
Research summary
Scientific evidence on amoxicillin primarily comes from studies examining its effects on the human microbiome and antibiotic resistance in various populations, showing consistent disruptions to microbial diversity and enrichment of resistance genes. In healthy subjects or controls, prolonged exposure leads to shifts in gut bacterial genera and temporary increases in beta-lactamase genes, with most changes reversible over months. Research consensus highlights its efficacy against susceptible pathogens but underscores ecological side effects on commensal bacteria, with limited data on benefits in healthy individuals.
