-> Middle ear and sinus infections
-> Throat or lung respiratory tract infections
-> Urinary tract infections
-> Skin and soft tissue infections
-> dental infections
-> Joint and bone infections (osteomyelitis)

It comes as tablets or as a liquid that you swallow.
It's also given by injection, but this is usually only done in hospital.
