Overview
Clavam 228mg Syrup 70ml is a paediatric antibiotic suspension combining amoxicillin 200mg with clavulanic acid 28.5mg per 5ml. The clavulanic acid shields amoxicillin from the enzymes resistant bacteria use to destroy it, restoring its power against common childhood infections. Ear infections (otitis media), tonsillitis, sinusitis, chest infections and some skin and urinary infections. From Alkem Laboratories, this co-amoxiclav syrup is a paediatrician's workhorse for treating the bacterial infections that keep children home from school.
Per 5ml (reconstituted): amoxicillin (as trihydrate) 200mg, clavulanic acid (as potassium clavulanate) 28.5mg.
