CLAVAM 300 MG – 1 VIAL

CLAVAM 300 MG combines amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, making it a broad-spectrum antibiotic effective against a wide range of bacterial infections. Amoxicillin, a penicillin derivative, works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, while clavulanic acid inhibits beta-lactamase enzymes that can render amoxicillin ineffective. This combination enhances the efficacy of amoxicillin and makes CLAVAM 300 MG effective in treating infections such as respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, and skin infections. CLAVAM 300 MG offers a reliable solution for managing and eradicating bacterial infections.

Usage Instructions

Medicinal Advantages
CLAVAM 300 MG offers several benefits in managing bacterial infections:

Broad-Spectrum Activity: Effective against a wide range of bacteria, including those resistant to amoxicillin alone.

Versatile Use: Suitable for treating various infections, including respiratory, urinary, and skin infections.
Mechanism of Action
CLAVAM 300 MG works by:

Inhibiting Bacterial Cell Wall Synthesis: Amoxicillin disrupts the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, leading to bacterial cell death.
Inhibiting Beta-Lactamase Enzymes: Clavulanic acid inhibits beta-lactamase enzymes that can inactivate amoxicillin, thereby enhancing its effectiveness against resistant bacteria.
Off-Label Uses
While CLAVAM 300 MG is primarily used for bacterial infections, off-label uses should be discussed with a healthcare provider to ensure safety and appropriateness.
