Amoxyclav 625mg Tablet

Here’s some information about Amoxyclav 625mg Tablet:

Active Ingredients:

1. Amoxicillin (500mg): Amoxicillin is a type of antibiotic belonging to the penicillin class. It is used to treat bacterial infections by interfering with the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, which weakens and eventually kills the bacteria.
2. Clavulanic Acid (125mg): Clavulanic acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. It helps protect amoxicillin from being destroyed by certain enzymes produced by some bacteria. This allows amoxicillin to be more effective against a broader range of bacteria.

• Respiratory tract infections (such as sinusitis, bronchitis, and pneumonia)
• Ear, nose, and throat infections
