Augmentin 1G Tablets (14 Tablets) - Broad-Spectrum Antibiotic for Bacterial Infections
Augmentin 1G Tablets are a powerful antibiotic combination containing amoxicillin (1g) and clavulanic acid (200mg). This broad-spectrum antibiotic is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, skin infections, and sinusitis. The amoxicillin component works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, while clavulanic acid prevents bacterial resistance, ensuring the effectiveness of amoxicillin. This combination makes Augmentin highly effective against bacteria that produce beta-lactamase, which would normally render amoxicillin ineffective.
Each tablet contains 1g of amoxicillin and 200mg of clavulanic acid, providing optimal therapeutic benefits for various infections. Augmentin 1G is ideal for treating both common and more complicated infections, as it targets a broad range of bacteria. Ensure the proper dosage as prescribed by your healthcare provider to achieve the best results.
