Antibiotic classes, strengths and pack sizes stocked at PCTMart

This is one of the largest categories in the catalogue, and it spans several distinct classes of antibacterial medicine. The penicillins are represented by amoxycillin, ampicillin and amoxycillin with clavulanic acid, stocked in 250MG, 375MG, 500MG and 625MG. Macrolides include azithromycin, clarithromycin and erythromycin, typically in 250MG and 500MG. The fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, ofloxacin) run from 200MG to 750MG. Cephalosporins such as cefixime, cefpodoxime, cefuroxime and cephalexin cover 100MG through 500MG, and the tetracyclines are mostly doxycycline at 100MG.

Why the class matters more than the brand

Class matters more than brand in this category. Different antibacterials reach different tissues and act on different organisms, which is why two medicines that both treat a chest infection are not interchangeable for a urinary one. If you have been told which molecule you need, the active ingredient filter will show every brand of it we carry rather than making you search brand by brand.

Tablets, dispersibles, suspensions and drops

Formats vary as much as strengths. Alongside standard tablets and capsules there are dispersible tablets for people who cannot swallow, oral suspensions measured in millilitres for children, eye and ear drops in the 0.003 to 0.04 range, and topical preparations in tubes measured in grams. The strength shown on a suspension refers to the concentration, not the total in the bottle, so check the pack size as well.

Completing a course, and common interactions

A few practical points. Courses are meant to be completed rather than stopped when symptoms ease, since stopping early is a recognised driver of resistance. Leftovers from a previous illness are a poor guide to a current one. Several of these interact with antacids, iron, dairy or alcohol in ways that change how much is absorbed. Your doctor or pharmacist should confirm the right choice. All stock ships from India through licensed distributors with a minimum twelve months of shelf life remaining.

Making up and storing oral suspensions

Oral suspensions are supplied as dry powder and are made up with water at the point of use; once made up they keep only for the period stated on the label, usually a week or two, and are discarded afterwards rather than kept for a later illness.
