How L Tum Products work
Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid is a combination of two medicines: Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid1 and Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid2. Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid1 is an antibiotic. It works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering which is essential for the survival of bacteria in the human body. Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid2 is a beta-lactamase inhibitor which blocks the action of enzymes produced by bacteria to inactivate Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid1. Addition of Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid2 reduces resistance and enhances the activity of Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid1 against bacteria.
