Each Injection contains:
Composition:
Amoxycillin
Sod. ……......................................…250 mg
Clavulanate Potassium …...........................……50 mg
Indications :
Clamoxin is an antibiotic in the class
of drugs called penicillins. Amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium
fights bacteria in the body. Clamoxin is used to treat many
different types of bacterial infections, such as sinusitis,
pneumonia, ear infections, bronchitis, urinary tract infections,
and infections of the skin.
Description:
Amoxycillin is still a versatile and relatively
well tolerated antibiotic. Compared to penicillin it is
advantageous because of its broader range. When used alone,
amoxycillin is better tolerated than co-trimoxazole. In
combination with clavulanic acid (Augmentin) however, it causes
more adverse effects. The combination is not effective against all
ß-lactamase producing bacteria (e.g. Enterobacter), causes many
side-effects (diarrhea), and is very expensive.
Contraindications
Penicillin hypersensitivity. Acute mononucleosis.
Dosage :
As per the physician’s advice. |
