old (no older than their 16th birthday), inclusive.
2. Patients must be able to swallow AUGMENTIN XR tablets.
3. Patients with suspected acute bacterial sinusitis that may benefit from administration
of AUGMENTIN XR (in the opinion of the PI) and who are not considered to be at
risk of clinically significant adverse effects at the dose specified in the protocol.
4. Written informed consent by the patient’s parent or legal guardian and where
appropriate, written assent of the volunteer.

Exclusion Criteria

Definite or suspected personal history or family history of adverse reactions or
hypersensitivity or allergy to any penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotics. Also
history of reaction to multiple allergens (if considered clinically relevant by the
principal investigator).
2. Patients weighing less than 40 kg or older than 16 years of age (i.e., past their 16th
birthday).
3. Patient is participating in another clinical trial or has received or anticipates
receiving an investigational drug, vaccine, or medical device (non-government)
within 30 days (or 5-half-lives, whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of study
medication or during the conduct of the study.
4. History or presence of gastrointestinal, hepatic or renal disease or other conditions
known to or that may interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or
excretion of study medication.
5. Treatment with probenecid or allopurinol within 7 days of study entry.
6. A positive urine ß-hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) test at screening (female
patients only) indicating pregnancy.
7. Female patients who are lactating (breast feeding).
8. Female patients who are unwilling to be abstinent until completion of the follow-up
visit.
9. History of diarrhea due to Clostridium difficile following treatment with antibiotics.
10. History of hypersensitivity or allergy to heparin or related preparations (if the
clinical research unit uses heparin to maintain intravenous cannula patency).
11. Patient is diagnosised with mononucleosis.
12. Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) <40 ml/min (refer to SRM for GFR
calculation formula).

administration of AUGMENTIN XR.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To obtain pharmacokinetic data on amoxicillin/clavulanate and time above MIC<br>(T>MIC) for amoxicillin when AUGMENTIN XR (amoxicillin 2000 mg/clavulanate<br>125 mg) is given orally twice daily to adolescents weighing at least 40 kg.;Secondary Objective: To assess the safety, tolerability, and clinical response of oral AUGMENTIN XR<br>twice daily for 10 days in adolescent patients.;Primary end point(s): Pharmacokinetic parameters will be T>MIC for amoxicillin (for an amoxicillin MIC of 2<br>ug/mL and 4ug/mL), Cmax, tmax, t1/2, AUC(0-t), AUC(0-t), and AUC(0-8) for<br>amoxicillin and for clavulanate.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: T>MIC: over the 12 hour dosing interval for an MIC of 2ug/mL and 4ug/mL<br><br>All the other parameters: evaluated for patients on any one given dosing day in which Augmentin XR was administered over a 12 hour dosing period with samples at pre-dose 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12 hours after the administration of study medication
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: throughout the study;Secondary end point(s): Adverse experiences will be monitored throughout the study by spontaneous<br>patient/parent-guardian reporting, direct questioning and physician/nursing observation,<br>clinical responses, and clinical laboratory tests.
