Augmentin 625 Kya Hai?

ClassBeta-lactam antibiotic (penicillin family)
ManufacturerGlaxoSmithKline

Pakistan mein qeemat: ~700-1000 PKR for 10 tablets — sirf general maloomat ke liye, pharmacy aur brand ke hisaab se qeemat mein farq ho sakta hai.

Clavulanic Acid Ka Faida Kya Hai?

Bacteria ne beta-lactamase enzyme develop kar liya hai jo amoxicillin ko destroy karta hai. Clavulanic acid is enzyme ko block karta hai, isliye Augmentin un bacteria pe bhi kaam karta hai jo plain amoxicillin se resistant hain. Yeh "extended spectrum" deti hai.

Augmentin Ki Strengths aur Forms — 375, 625, 1g (BD) aur DS Syrup

Is combination ka generic naam co-amoxiclav (amoxicillin-clavulanate) hai, isliye Calamox, Camox ya Klaract ke pattay pe bhi yehi likha milta hai.
