Kenop Suspension 228.5mg is a powerful broad-spectrum antibiotic medication containing Co-Amoxiclav. This combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid provides effective treatment against a wide range of bacterial infections, offering targeted therapeutic intervention for various medical conditions.
Uses
Kenop Suspension is prescribed to treat multiple bacterial infections affecting different parts of the body. It is effective in managing respiratory tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections, and dental infections caused by susceptible bacteria.
Benefits

- Combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid
- Prevents bacterial resistance
- Rapid onset of action
- Suitable for both adults and children
- Reduces risk of secondary infections
- Supports quick recovery from bacterial infections
How It Works
Kenop Suspension works through a dual-action mechanism. Amoxicillin targets bacterial cell wall synthesis, while clavulanic acid inhibits beta-lactamase enzymes that can cause antibiotic resistance. This combination ensures comprehensive bacterial elimination and reduces the potential for drug-resistant infections.
Dosage
Dosage of Kenop Suspension varies based on patient age, weight, and specific infection type. Typically, children receive 20-40 mg/kg per day divided into three doses. Adults are usually prescribed 375-625 mg every 8 hours. Always follow the healthcare provider’s specific instructions for optimal treatment.
Duration of Action
The medication begins working quickly, with initial bacterial reduction occurring within 1-2 hours of administration. Peak therapeutic effects are typically observed within 24-48 hours. The complete course of treatment usually spans 7-14 days, depending on the infection’s severity.
Side Effects
Some patients might experience mild side effects including digestive disturbances, nausea, diarrhea, or skin rash. These effects are generally temporary and resolve during the course of treatment. Severe allergic reactions, though rare, require immediate medical attention.
Warnings
Patients should inform their healthcare provider about any allergies, particularly to penicillin-based antibiotics. Individuals with kidney problems, liver disease, or mononucleosis should exercise caution. Discontinue use and seek medical advice if severe allergic reactions occur.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
Kenop Suspension can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding under medical supervision. Healthcare providers will assess the potential benefits against possible risks, ensuring safe usage for both mother and child.
Interactions
- Potential interactions with oral contraceptives
- May affect effectiveness of live bacterial vaccines
- Possible interaction with blood thinners
- Potential impact on kidney function medications
- Interactions with probiotics and dietary supplements
Important Information
Kenop Suspension should be taken as prescribed, completing the entire course even if symptoms improve. Store at room temperature, protect from moisture, and keep out of children’s reach. Shake the suspension well before each use to ensure proper medication distribution.

Hello Vivian,
Kenop 228.5 (Amoxicillin + Clavulanic Acid) dosage for newborns should be determined by a doctor based on weight and condition. A 10-day-old newborn is very young, and 5ml may be too much. Please consult a pediatrician before giving any medication.
