Aquaclav 375mg Tablet is an antibiotic that contains amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium as the active ingredients.
- Amoxicillin: Amoxicillin is a beta-lactam antibiotic that belongs to the penicillin group. It works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria by interfering with their cell wall synthesis. It is effective against a wide range of bacterial infections.
- Clavulanic Acid: Clavulanic acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. It is frequently combined with amoxicillin to enhance its effectiveness. Beta-lactamase enzymes produced by some bacteria can degrade antibiotics like amoxicillin, rendering them ineffective. Clavulanic acid prevents this enzymatic destruction, allowing amoxicillin to work against a broader spectrum of susceptible bacterial infections.
Aquaclav is commonly used to treat various infections caused by susceptible bacteria, including:
- Acute otitis media: Caused by H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis.
- Sinusitis: Due to H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis.
- Lower respiratory tract infections: Caused by Haemophilus influenzae, S. aureus, Klebsiella species, and Moraxella catarrhalis.
