Description

Amclav Plus 457 mg/5 ml Suspension is an effective broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. The medication contains Co-amoxiclav, a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. Amoxicillin is a penicillin-type antibiotic that works by stopping the growth of bacteria, while clavulanic acid helps prevent certain bacteria from becoming resistant to the antibiotic. This suspension is especially useful for treating infections in the respiratory tract, urinary tract, skin, and soft tissues, as well as ear, nose, and throat infections. It is important to complete the entire prescribed course to fully resolve the infection.

Functions

Amclav Plus 457 mg/5 ml Suspension works by combining the action of amoxicillin, a broad-spectrum penicillin antibiotic, and clavulanic acid, which protects amoxicillin from degradation by bacterial enzymes. This makes it effective against a wide range of bacteria, including those that are resistant to amoxicillin alone. The medicine is primarily used to treat respiratory, urinary tract, skin, soft tissue, and ear, nose, and throat infections. It helps to eradicate harmful bacteria from the body, alleviating symptoms and preventing complications.

Precautions

Patients should inform their healthcare provider if they have a history of liver or kidney problems, as these conditions may require adjustments to the dosage or more frequent monitoring during treatment. Amclav Plus should be used cautiously in individuals with a history of blood disorders or those prone to developing urinary crystals. Hydration is important during treatment to prevent potential kidney complications. As with all antibiotics, it's essential to take the full course as prescribed, even if symptoms improve before completion.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Amclav Plus 457 mg/5 ml Suspension may include mild gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. More serious side effects can include liver issues (such as hepatitis), allergic skin reactions, or severe conditions like Stevens-Johnson Syndrome. Additionally, some patients may experience dizziness, seizures, or changes in blood counts. In rare cases, the suspension may cause teeth staining. If you notice any unusual symptoms, it is important to consult a healthcare professional immediately.

Cautions

Amclav Plus 457 mg/5 ml Suspension should not be used by individuals who are allergic to penicillin or any of its components, as well as those with liver dysfunction. Caution is advised for pregnant or breastfeeding women, as the safety of this medicine during pregnancy and lactation has not been fully established. This medication should also be used with care in patients with renal (kidney) issues, or those at risk of severe skin reactions. Always follow your doctor’s instructions and never self-medicate or alter the prescribed dose.
