Short description: Antibiotic medication used for the treatment of a number of bacterial infections.
Long description:
Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid is widely used to treat or prevent many infections caused by susceptible bacteria, such as:
- urinary tract infections
- respiratory tract infections
- skin and soft tissue infections
- sinus infections
- tonsillitis
- cat scratches
infections caused by the bacterial flora of the mouth, such as:
- dental infections
- infected animal bites
- infected human bites (including uncomplicated clenched-fist or reverse-bite injuries)
It is also used for tuberculosis that is resistant to other treatments.
The World health organisation recommends giving amoxicillin clavulanate along with meropenem as one of the the*****utic options in drug resistant tuberculosis, where clavulanate and not amoxicillin is being relied upon for anti TB activity. However, across the spectrum of dosage of amoxicillin-clavulanate combination, the dose of clavulanate is constant at 125 mg, whereas the dose of amoxicillin varies at 250 mg, 500 mg and 875 mg. Thus the use of low dose amoxicillin-clavulanate in combination with meropenem may be used in part of treatment regime for drug resistant TB and this has been demonstrated in a clinical setting also.
You should ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN and find out about the possible interactions and side effects, which may occur, before using this medication.
