What are the uses of this product?

Amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium for Oral Suspension is indicated for the treatment of infections in adults and pediatric patients, due to susceptible isolates of the designated bacteria in the conditions listed below:•Lower Respiratory Tract Infections -caused by beta‑lactamase‑producing isolates of Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis.•Acute Bacterial Otitis Media -caused by beta‑lactamase‑producing isolates of H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis.•Sinusitis -caused by beta‑lactamase‑producing isolates of H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis.•Skin and Skin Structure Infections -caused by beta‑lactamase‑producing isolates of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella species.•Urinary Tract Infections -caused by beta‑lactamase‑producing isolates of E. coli, Klebsiella species, and Enterobacter species.Limitations of UseWhen susceptibility test results show susceptibility to amoxicillin, indicating no beta-lactamase production, Amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium for Oral Suspension should not be used.UsageTo reduce the development of drug‑resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of Amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium for Oral Suspension and other antibacterial drugs, Amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium for Oral Suspension should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.

What are Active Ingredients of this product?

An active ingredient is the substance responsible for the medicinal effects of a product specified by the substance's molecular structure or if the molecular structure is not known, defined by an unambiguous definition that identifies the substance. Each active ingredient name is the preferred term of the UNII code submitted.
  • AMOXICILLIN 400 mg/5mL - A broad-spectrum semisynthetic antibiotic similar to AMPICILLIN except that its resistance to gastric acid permits higher serum levels with oral administration.
  • CLAVULANIC ACID 57 mg/5mL - Acids, salts, and derivatives of clavulanic acid (C8H9O5N). They consist of those beta-lactam compounds that differ from penicillin in having the sulfur of the thiazolidine ring replaced by an oxygen. They have limited antibacterial action, but block bacterial beta-lactamase irreversibly, so that similar antibiotics are not broken down by the bacterial enzymes and therefore can exert their antibacterial effects.
