Amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium dry suspension

Function and Efficacy

This product is a compound preparation composed of amoxicillin and potassium clavulanate, in which amoxicillin is a semi-synthetic broad-spectrum penicillin antibiotic that mainly acts on the bacterial reproduction stage by inhibiting the biosynthesis of its cell wall mucopolypeptide. It is effective against many Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Potassium clavulanate has a β-lactam structure similar to penicillin. It has only weak antibacterial activity itself, but it can inactivate enzymes produced by many bacteria by blocking the active site of β-lactamase, especially for clinically important, plasmid-mediated β-lactamases (these enzymes are usually related to changes in resistance to penicillins and cephalosporins). The combination of the two can protect amoxicillin from hydrolysis and destruction by β-lactamase, so that it is still effective against resistant bacteria that produce β-lactamase.
