FOR
Amoxicillin/Clavulanic acid DSM-Sinochem is an antibiotic and works by
killing bacteria that cause
infections. It contains two different medicines called amoxicillin and

stopped from working (made inactive).

happening.
Amoxicillin/Clavulanic acid DSM-Sinochem is used in adults and
children to treat the following infections:

Middle ear and sinus infections

Respiratory tract infections

Urinary tract infections

Skin and soft tissue infections including dental infections
