This paper deals with the feasibility of the transformation of amoxicillin sodium salt into amoxicillin trihydrate. It will also be the opportunity of studying the physical properties of the crystals obtained (size and size distribution, shape, purity, morphology) as a result from the interaction of the crystallization-precipitation process with or without ultrasound and the selected antibiotic amoxicillin.
