Amoxicillin is still penicillin. It is one kind of penicillin. It has different effect in our body. Penicillins are not pain relievers but antibacterial or bactericidal. It kills the invading bacteria which our body recognize as foreign. It is usually used in inflammation to relieved swelling. Penicillin is the mother, amoxicillin and others is its sons and daughters. It is commonly prescribed by physician as a first line treatment of different kind of undiagnosed diseases. Since it is a broad spectrum antibiotic it can be prescribed to difference diseases which have not yet diagnosed the real cause.

penicilin it was like the first antibiotic and for different kind of cells, and amoxicilin contains penicilin but in other way and it is gonna help other kind of tissues or organs in your system . THe antibiotics are like degrees and different infections in your system.
