Prescription Required: Mandatory
Augmentin DUO Oral Suspension 30 ml belongs to a group of antibiotics known as penicillin combination. It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that works against various types of bacteria. Augmentin DUO Oral Suspension 30 ml is made up of two medicines: Amoxicillin (the active part of antibiotic) and Clavulanic acid (that boosts the efficacy of the amoxicillin). Augmentin DUO Oral Suspension 30 ml is generally prescribed to prevent middle ear and sinus infections, throat or lung respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, skin infections, soft tissue infections, dental infections, joint and bone infections.
Infectious or harmful bacteria can make you sick and reproduce quickly in your body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Amoxicillin acts by destroying the outer protein layer, thereby killing the bacteria (bactericidal). Clavulanic acid inhibits the enzyme beta-lactamase that prevents bacteria from destroying the efficacy of amoxicillin. As a result, the action of Clavulanic acid allows Amoxicillin to work better and kill the bacteria. Augmentin DUO Oral Suspension 30 ml does not work against infections caused by viruses, including cold and flu.
Uses of Augmentin DUO Oral Suspension 30 ml
Bacterial Infections (Ear infections (acute otitis media), Bronchitis, Pneumonia, Urinary tract infections, skin infections, etc.)
Medicinal Benefits
Augmentin DUO Oral Suspension 30 ml is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that covers a very wide range of bacterial infections. Augmentin DUO Oral Suspension 30 ml has the advantage of having Clavulanic acid, which protects amoxicillin from getting destroyed by the bacterial enzyme increasing its efficacy. Besides this, it helps overcome antibiotic resistance in bacteria caused by the enzyme which destroys amoxicillin (beta-lactamase). This makes the drug effective in multiple infections like ear infections (acute otitis media), bronchitis, pneumonia, urinary tract infections, skin infections, etc. It can be used safely in children, pregnancy, and breastfeeding if taken at the prescription of the doctor.
