  • Recurrent or persistent acute otitis media due to S. pneumoniae(penicillin MICs less than or equal to 2 mcg/mL), H. influenzae(including beta-lactamase-producing strains), or M. catarrhalis(including beta-lactamase-producing strains) characterized by the following risk factors: Antibacterial exposure for acute otitis media within the preceding 3 months, and either of the following: 1) age 2 years, or younger or 2) day care attendance.

Limitations of Use

AUGMENTIN ES-600 is not indicated for the treatment of acute otitis media due to S. pneumoniaewith penicillin MIC greater than or equal to 4 mcg/mL. Acute otitis media due to S. pneumoniaealone can be treated with amoxicillin.

To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of AUGMENTIN ES-600 and other antibacterial drugs, AUGMENTIN ES-600 should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by bacteria.
