Benefits

• Effective against a wide range of bacterial infections

• Can be taken with or without food
• Suitable for various types of infections in adults and adolescents

How It Works

Amoxicillin, a penicillin-type antibiotic, inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis. Clavulanate potassium is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that prevents certain bacteria from inactivating amoxicillin. This combination allows the antibiotic to overcome drug resistance in many bacterial strains.

Dosage

The typical adult dosage is one 625mg tablet every 8 hours or two 625mg tablets every 12 hours, depending on the severity of the infection. Treatment usually lasts 7-14 days. Always follow your doctor’s prescription and complete the full course of treatment.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include:

• Diarrhea
• Nausea and vomiting
• Skin rash
• Headache
• Vaginal yeast infection

Rare but serious side effects can include severe allergic reactions or liver problems.

Warning

Auglocef can cause serious allergic reactions, especially in patients with a history of penicillin allergy. If signs of an allergic reaction occur, seek immediate medical attention. Use with caution in patients with liver disease or mononucleosis.

Interaction

Auglocef may interact with several medications. Key interactions include:

• Oral contraceptives (reduced effectiveness)
• Allopurinol (increased risk of skin rash)
• Anticoagulants (increased risk of bleeding)
• Probenecid (increased amoxicillin levels)
• Methotrexate (increased methotrexate toxicity)

Always inform your doctor about all medications you’re taking.
