Description
Amoxycillin 80 mg and Potassium Clavulanate 11.4 mg for Oral Suspension IP (Drops)
When your little one is fighting a bacterial infection, choosing the right antibiotic is critical—one that’s safe, effective, and gentle on tiny bodies. Amoxycillin 80 and Potassium Clavulanate 11.4 For Oral Suspension IP (Drops) offers a trusted solution specifically formulated for infants. With its child-friendly dosage and powerful infection-fighting properties, this combination ensures your baby gets the best possible care.
What Is It?
This formulation is a pediatric antibiotic drop containing:
- Amoxycillin (80 mg) – A penicillin-class antibiotic that kills a broad range of harmful bacteria.
- Potassium Clavulanate (11.4 mg) – A beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects Amoxycillin from bacterial resistance.
Together, they form a synergistic combination that treats infections more effectively than Amoxycillin alone.
Indications – When Is It Used?
Amoxycillin & Potassium Clavulanate drops are commonly prescribed for infants to treat:
Upper respiratory infections (like sinusitis or tonsillitis)
Ear infections (otitis media)
Lower respiratory infections (such as bronchitis or mild pneumonia)
Dental infections
Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Skin and soft tissue infections
This formulation is especially useful when bacteria are suspected to be resistant to plain Amoxycillin.
How to Administer
- Shake the bottle well before each use.
- Use the dropper provided to ensure accurate dosing.
- Administer the dose directly into the infant’s mouth or mix with a small amount of milk if advised.
- Complete the full course, even if the child feels better earlier.
Storage tip: Keep the reconstituted suspension refrigerated and use within 7 days or as per the label instructions.
Why This Combination Matters
One of the biggest challenges in treating infections today is antibiotic resistance. The addition of Clavulanate helps overcome this by neutralizing the enzymes that some bacteria produce to resist treatment. This ensures that Amoxycillin can work more effectively, even against tougher infections.
