Cenmox (Amoxicillin) Buyer and Patient Handbook in Singapore
What is Cenmox?
Cenmox is an amoxicillin-containing antibiotic belonging to the penicillin class and is used to treat bacterial infections such as respiratory tract, ear, sinus, urinary-tract and Skin Infections. It is approved by Singapore’s Health Sciences Authority (HSA) and is available in tablet form. The tablets are supplied in strengths of 250 mg and 500 mg.
Who Should Use Cenmox?
- Adults and adolescents (≥12 years) with confirmed or suspected bacterial infections.
- Patients without a known allergy to penicillins.
- Individuals whose infection is likely to respond to a β-lactam antibiotic (e.g., community-acquired Pneumonia, streptococcal Pharyngitis).
How Does It Work?
Cenmox contains Amoxicillin, which blocks the bacterial cell-wall synthesis enzyme (transpeptidase). Without a sturdy wall, bacteria burst and die, allowing the body’s immune system to clear the infection. As a bactericidal agent, it works quickly but does not affect viruses.
Why Choose Cenmox?
- Generic value: As a generic product, Cenmox offers the same clinical efficacy as brand-name amoxicillin at a lower cost.
- Broad spectrum: Effective against many common gram-positive and gram-negative organisms.
- Convenient dosing: Available in two strengths, making it easy to match the prescribed regimen.
Dosage, Administration, Lifestyle and Dietary Recommendations
Recommended Dosage
- 250 mg tablets: Typically 1-2 tablets every 8 hours for mild infections.
- 500 mg tablets: Usually 1 tablet every 8 hours for moderate to severe infections.
How to Take
- Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water.
- Can be taken with or without food; taking with food may reduce stomach upset.
Missed Dose
- Take the missed dose as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next scheduled dose.
- Do not double-dose to compensate for a missed tablet.
Overdose
- Seek immediate medical attention or contact the Singapore Poison Centre (180-438).
- Symptoms may include Nausea, Vomiting, dizziness, or rapid heartbeat.
Special Populations
- Elderly: No dosage adjustment needed if renal function is normal.
- Renal impairment: Reduce dose or extend interval according to creatinine clearance.
- Pregnancy & breastfeeding: Considered safe (Category B); continue if prescribed.
Lifestyle & Diet
- Avoid taking antacids containing aluminum or magnesium within 2 hours of the tablet, as they may lower absorption.
- No restriction on dairy, but large amounts of calcium can modestly reduce uptake.
Precautions and Warnings
- Do not use if you have a known penicillin allergy (rash, Anaphylaxis).
- Inform your clinician of any liver disease, kidney dysfunction, or recent antibiotic use.
- Prolonged use may lead to overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms (e.g., oral thrush, colitis).

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a typical course of Cenmox last?
A usual adult course lasts 7-10 days, but the exact duration depends on the infection type and clinician’s assessment.
Can I drink coffee while taking Cenmox?
Yes, moderate coffee consumption does not interfere with amoxicillin absorption.
Will alcohol affect the effectiveness of Cenmox?
Alcohol does not reduce the antibacterial action, but excessive drinking may increase stomach irritation.
What should I do if I develop a rash while on Cenmox?
Stop the medication and contact a healthcare professional immediately to evaluate for an allergic reaction.
Is it safe to take Cenmox with over-the-counter pain relievers?
Acetaminophen and ibuprofen are generally safe, but avoid simultaneous use of aspirin if you have a penicillin allergy, as cross-reactivity can occur in rare cases.
Can I use Cenmox for a viral infection like the common cold?
No. Amoxicillin treats bacterial infections only; using it for viral illnesses offers no benefit and may promote resistance.
How should I store the tablets while traveling?
Keep them in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original blister pack, and avoid leaving them in a hot car.
What if I forget a dose and it’s almost time for the next one?
Skip the missed dose and resume your regular schedule; do not double-dose.

Reviews
Day 3 on Cenmox for a sinus infection. It's starting to work, the pressure is less. But wow, my stomach is not happy. Had to run to the toilet twice this morning. My aunt said to eat a big meal before taking it, should've listened. Hope this gets better soon.
I get strep throat a lot, so I'm on Cenmox 500mg maybe twice a year. The key is probiotics. If I don't take my Yakult with the pill, I get terrible diarrhea for days. With it, almost no stomach issues. Clears up the infection in like 48 hours. Just remember the probiotics!
Prescribed for a dental abscess. The pain went down fast, which was a huge relief. But it gave me a weird rash on my chest after 5 days. Doctor said it's a common reaction, switched me to something else. It did its job for the infection, just watch out for any skin changes.
Used Cenmox for my kid's ear infection. The liquid form is a nightmare to get down, tastes awful. We mix it with a little chocolate milk, that's the only way. Works well for the infection, fever was gone in two days. But the fussy eating and mild diarrhea are a real struggle.
Been on this for a stubborn skin infection. It's effective, but it completely kills my appetite. Food just tastes... blah. I force myself to eat plain rice and yogurt with it. Also, sun sensitivity is real. Got a slight burn just from walking to the market. Hat and sunscreen are a must.
Took the full 7-day course for a UTI. Felt better by day 2, but made sure to finish everything. The main side effect was just feeling a bit bloated. Drank a lot of water and ate light meals. No big issues. It's a standard antibiotic, does what it's supposed to if you follow instructions.
My experience was mixed. Cleared my bronchitis perfectly, breathing was so much easier. But it messed up my birth control. Had a scare last month. Doctor didn't warn me. Ladies, please be careful and use backup protection while on this. It's a known interaction.
I have to take this before dental procedures. Always makes my tongue feel fuzzy and white. It's thrush. I gargle with warm salt water 3 times a day now when I'm on it, and it helps a ton. The antibiotic itself works, you just have to manage the side effects smartly.
