Pharmacological action

Amoxiclav Quicktab – a broad-spectrum antibiotic contains semisynthetic penicillin amoxicillin and a b-lactamase clavulanic acid inhibitor. Clavulanic acid inhibits most clinically significant b-lactamases (types 2, 3, 4 and 5 according to the classification of Richmond Sykes) produced by Staphylococcus spp., Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Haemophilus influenzae, Moraxella catarrhalis, Bacteroides spp. Inactive against type 1 b-lactamases produced by Enterobacter spp., Morganella morganii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia spp., Acinetobacter spp.

This combination provides high bactericidal activity of Amoxiclav (including against strains of microorganisms resistant to amoxicillin). Clavulanic acid Having a higher affinity for b-lactamase than amoxicillin, it forms a stable deactivated complex with the enzyme, preventing the enzymatic degradation of amoxicillin under the action of b-lactamases.

Thus, Amoxiclav acts bactericidal on a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria (including strains that have become resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics due to the production of b-lactamases).
