How Bactoclav DS 228.05MG 60ML Works

Amoxicillin is a penicillin antibiotic that kills bacteria by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. Clavulanic acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects amoxicillin from breakdown by beta-lactamase–producing bacteria, broadening its antibacterial activity.

Dosage & Directions

Oral suspension. Shake well before each dose and measure with a calibrated spoon/cup. Usually given with food to reduce stomach upset; follow the doctor’s prescribed dose based on body weight and severity. Complete the full course; do not stop early. Reconstitute as per label directions (add boiled and cooled water up to the mark).

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
