Klavox 625 mg 20 Tablets
Klavox is an antibiotic medication used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections. It belongs to the class of antibiotics known as penicillins and contains a combination of Amoxicillin and Clavulanic Acid. It is used to treat respiratory tract infections, ear infections, and urinary tract infections.
Klavox works by inhibiting bacterial growth by affecting their cell walls. Amoxicillin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, while Clavulanic Acid prevents the beta-lactamase enzymes produced by some bacteria to bypass the effect of Amoxicillin. This combination increases the drug's effectiveness against resistant bacteria. Klavox is commonly used to treat infections caused by bacteria sensitive to this combination.
