Terapeutické indikace:

To reduce the development of drug‑resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium and other antibacterial drugs, amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium should be used only to treat infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy. Amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium is a combination penicillin-class antibacterial and beta-lactamase inhibitor indicated in the treatment of infections due to susceptible isolates of the designated bacteria in the conditions listed below*: caused by beta‑lactamase–producing isolates of Haemophilus  influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis . caused by beta‑lactamase–producing isolates of H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis . caused by beta‑lacta
