Augmentin 625mg is a prescription antibiotic medication that combines two active ingredients: amoxicillin (a penicillin-type antibiotic) and clavulanic acid (a beta-lactamase inhibitor). This combination enhances the effectiveness of amoxicillin by preventing certain bacteria from breaking it down, thus helping it to fight a broader range of bacterial infections.

Uses:

• Treatment of bacterial infections such as respiratory tract infections (e.g., pneumonia, bronchitis), ear infections, urinary tract infections, skin infections, and sinus infections.
• Effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Dosage:Typically taken 1 tablet of 625mg twice a day with or without food, or as prescribed by a healthcare provider. Dosage may vary depending on the specific infection and individual health conditions.

Key Features:

• Broad-spectrum antibiotic coverage.
• Combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid for enhanced potency against resistant bacteria.
• Commonly prescribed for mild to moderate bacterial infections.

Precautions:

• May cause allergic reactions in individuals sensitive to penicillins or cephalosporins.
• Not suitable for people with a history of liver issues or jaundice related to Augmentin use.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before using this medication.

Side Effects:Potential side effects include nausea, diarrhea, and allergic reactions. Consult your doctor if you experience any severe or persistent side effects.
