DESCRIPTION: Amoxicillin Trihydrate and Clavulanate Potassium Tablets
(amoxicillin
trihydrate/clavulanate potassium) are an orally administered
formulation comprised of the broad-
spectrum antibiotic amoxicillin trihydrate and the β-lactamase
inhibitor, clavulanate potassium (the
potassium salt of clavulanic acid).
Amoxicillin trihydrate is a semisynthetic antibiotic with a broad
spectrum of bactericidal activity against
many gram-positive and gram-negative, aerobic and anaerobic
microorganisms. It does not resist
destruction by β-lactamases; therefore, it is not effective against
β-lactamase-producing bacteria.
Chemically, it is D(-)-α-amino-p-hydroxybenzyl penicillin trihydrate.
Clavulanic acid, an inhibitor of β-lactamase enzymes, is produced by
the fermentation of _Streptomyces_
_clavuligerus. _Clavulanic acid by itself has only weak antibacterial
activity. Chemically, clavulanate
potassium is potassium z-(3R,5R)-2-β-hydroxyethylidene
clavam-3-carboxylate.
ACTIONS: Amoxicillin Trihydrate and Clavulanate Potassium Tablets are
stable in the presence of
gastric acid and are not significantly influenced by gastric or
intestinal contents. The 2 components are
rapidly absorbed resulting in amoxicillin and clavulanic acid
concentrations in serum, urine, and tissues
similar to those produced when each is administered alone.
Amoxicillin and clavulanic acid diffuse readily into most body tissues
and fluids with the exception of
brain and spinal fluid, which amoxicillin penetrates adequately when
meninges are inflamed. Most of the
amoxicillin is excreted unchanged in the urine. Clavulanic acid's
penetration into spinal fluid is unknown
at this time. Approximately 15
