Hello
Thank you for posting on HCM.
Ampiclox contains Ampicillin and cloxacillin.
The combination is very useful for bacterial skin and soft tissue infections.
The dosage for adults is 500 mg capsule of Ampiclox 3 to 4 times a day for 5 days.
Also in addition apply antibiotic cream like Mupirocin twice a day.
Warm compresses will give soothing effect.
I am sure you will be fine soon.
