CLAVAMOXY LS ORAL SUSPENSION

Description

CLAVAMOXY LS ORAL SUSPENSION is a pediatric antibiotic formulation designed to combat a wide range of bacterial infections in children. This combination of Amoxycillin and Clavulanic Acid is effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including those that produce beta-lactamase enzymes. The formulation comes in a liquid suspension, making it easier to administer to children who have difficulty swallowing tablets. Key Ingredients Amoxycillin (200mg): A broad-spectrum penicillin antibiotic that kills bacteria by inhibiting cell wall synthesis. Clavulanic Acid (28.5mg): A beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects Amoxycillin from enzymatic degradation, enhancing its antibacterial activity. Sterile Water for Injections IP (30 ml): A solvent used for reconstitution of the powder into an oral suspension. Key Benefits Broad-spectrum action effective against various bacterial infections such as respiratory tract infections, ear infections, urinary tract infections, and skin infections. Clavulanic acid extends the spectrum of Amoxycillin by neutralizing bacterial resistance. Child-friendly suspension form for easy administration. Rapid onset of action with noticeable improvement in symptoms. Trusted choice in pediatric antibiotic therapy with proven efficacy. How Does It Work? Amoxycillin targets and inhibits the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, leading to cell lysis and death. It is most effective against bacteria that do not produce beta-lactamase. Clavulanic Acid inhibits beta-lactamase enzymes produced by resistant bacteria, which would otherwise inactivate Amoxycillin. This synergy enhances the overall effectiveness of the antibiotic. Together, these ingredients provide a dual-action mechanism that ensures broad and sustained antibacterial activity. Directions for Use Shake the bottle well before each use to ensure uniform dispersion. Use the prescribed measuring device to administer the exact dose recommended by the pediatrician. Administer the suspension orally, with or without food, as per your doctor’s instructions. Complete the full course of treatment even if symptoms improve earlier, to prevent antibiotic resistance. Store the reconstituted suspension in a refrigerator (2°C–8°C) and use within 7 days. Side Effects Common side effects may include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and mild skin rash. Some children may experience abdominal discomfort or loss of appetite. Rare but serious side effects include allergic reactions such as hives, difficulty breathing, or swelling of the face and throat. If any severe or unusual symptoms occur, consult your doctor immediately.
