Amoxycillin + Clavulanic Acid is a combination of two medicines: Amoxycillin + Clavulanic Acid1 and Amoxycillin + Clavulanic Acid2. Amoxycillin + Clavulanic Acid1 is an antibiotic. It works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering which is essential for the survival of bacteria. Amoxycillin + Clavulanic Acid2 is a beta-lactamase inhibitor which reduces resistance and enhances the activity of Amoxycillin + Clavulanic Acid1 against bacteria.
