Amoxycillin And Clavulanic Acid 457mg Oral Suspension - Dosage Form: Liquid

CLAVAMOXY DS ORAL SUSPENSION is a broad-spectrum antibiotic formulation specially designed for children. It combines Amoxycillin, a powerful penicillin-class antibiotic, with Clavulanic Acid, a beta-lactamase inhibitor, to fight a wide range of bacterial infections.
This dual-action formula is effective in treating infections of the respiratory tract, ear, throat, urinary tract, skin, and soft tissues. CLAVAMOXY DS is frequently prescribed by pediatricians for upper and lower respiratory tract infections, otitis media, tonsillitis, and sinusitis.
Key Ingredients


Amoxycillin (400 mg per 5 mL): A broad-spectrum penicillin antibiotic that kills bacteria by inhibiting cell wall synthesis, leading to bacterial death.


Clavulanic Acid (57 mg per 5 mL): A beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects Amoxycillin from being broken down by beta-lactamase enzymes produced by resistant bacteria.


Together, these ingredients extend the antibiotic spectrum and enhance treatment success, especially in infections caused by resistant strains of bacteria.
Key Benefits


Broad-spectrum coverage against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria


Effective for common pediatric infections including throat, ear, sinus, and lung infections


Combats beta-lactamase-producing resistant bacteria


Well-tolerated in children with appropriate dosing


Helps reduce infection symptoms like fever, cough, congestion, and pain quickly


How Does It Work?
CLAVAMOXY DS works through a synergistic mechanism:


Amoxycillin interferes with bacterial cell wall synthesis, weakening and destroying the bacterial cells.


Clavulanic Acid inhibits the beta-lactamase enzymes that some bacteria produce to resist penicillin antibiotics.


This combination ensures that the antibiotic remains effective even against resistant strains, offering faster recovery and reduced chances of infection recurrence.
