Amoxicillin/clavulanate potassium is indicated in the treatment of infections caused by susceptible strains of the designated organisms in the conditions listed below: Lower Respiratory Tract Infections - caused by β-lactamase-producing strains of H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis. Otitis Media - caused by β-lactamase-producing strains of H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis. Sinusitis - caused by β-lactamase-producing strains of H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis. Skin and Skin Structure Infections - caused by β-lactamase-producing strains of S. aureus, E. coli and Klebsiella spp. Urinary Tract Infections - caused by β-lactamase-producing strains of E. coli , Klebsiella spp. and Enterobacter spp. While amoxicillin/clavulanate potassium is indicated only for the conditions listed above, infections caused by ampicillin-susceptible organisms are also amenable to amoxicillin/clavulanate potassium treatment due to its amoxicillin content, therefore, mixed infections caused by ampicillin-susceptible orga

DESCRIPTION
Amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium Tablet USP is an oral
antibacterial combination consisting of the
semisynthetic antibiotic amoxicillin and the β-lactamase inhibitor,
clavulanate potassium (the potassium
salt of clavulanic acid). Amoxicillin is an analog of ampicillin,
derived from the basic penicillin
nucleus, 6-aminopenicillanic acid. The amoxicillin molecular formula
is C
H N O S·3H O and the
molecular weight is 419.46. Chemically, amoxicillin is _(2S, 5R,
6R)_-6-[(_R_)-(-)-2-Amino-2-(_p_-
hydroxyphenyl)acetamido]-3,3-dimethyl-7-oxo-4-thia-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-2-carboxylic
acid
trihydrate and may be represented structurally as:
Clavulanic acid is produced by the fermentation of _Streptomyces
clavuligerus_. It is a β-lactam structurally
related to the penicillins and possesses the ability to inactivate a
wide variety of β-lactamases by
blocking the active sites of these enzymes. Clavulanic acid is
particularly active against the clinically
important plasmid mediated β-lactamases frequently responsible for
transferred drug resistance to
penicillins and cephalosporins. The clavulanate potassium molecular
formula is C H KNO and the
molecular weight is 237.25. Chemically, clavulanate potassium is
potassium (_Z_)-(2_R,_5_R_ )-3-(2-
hydroxyethyliden
