About Amotid Clav 500 mg/125 mg Tablet
Amotid Clav 500 mg/125 mg Tablet is used to treat bacterial infections in the body that affect the skin, soft tissues, lungs, ears, urinary tract, and nasal sinuses. It should be mentioned that viral infections like the flu and the common cold are not treated by this medication.
Amotid Clav 500 mg/125 mg Tablet consists of two medicines: Amoxycillin and Clavulanic acid. Amoxycillin acts by destroying the outer protein layer, thereby killing the bacteria (bactericidal action). Clavulanic acid inhibits the enzyme beta-lactamase, which prevents bacteria from destroying the efficacy of amoxycillin. As a result, the action of Clavulanic acid allows Amoxycillin to work better and kill the bacteria. Amotid Clav 500 mg/125 mg Tablet does not work against infections caused by viruses, including colds and flu.
The dose of Amotid Clav 500 mg/125 mg Tablet can vary depending on your condition and the severity of the infection. Also, it is recommended to complete the course of medicine even if you feel better as it is an antibiotic, and leaving it in between may lead to even severe infection that will, in fact, stop responding to the antibiotic as well (antibiotic resistance). The common side effects of Amotid Clav 500 mg/125 mg Tablet include vomiting, nausea, and diarrhoea. Everyone may not experience the above side effects. In case of any discomfort, speak with a doctor.
Before starting Amotid Clav 500 mg/125 mg Tablet, please inform your doctor if you have any allergy (against any antibiotic) or kidney or liver problems. Do not take Amotid Clav 500 mg/125 mg Tablet on your own as self-medication since it may lead to antibiotic resistance in which antibiotics fail to act against specific bacterial infections. Amotid Clav 500 mg/125 mg Tablet is safe for children if prescribed by a doctor; the dose and duration may vary depending on the child’s weight and the severity of the infection. Inform your doctor about all the medicines you are taking and about your health condition to rule out any unpleasant side effects.
