About
Amoxycillin+clavulanic Acid+lactic Acid Bacillus belongs to the group of medicines called antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, skin, bone, soft tissue, joints, urinary tract, and respiratory tract. Amoxycillin+clavulanic Acid+lactic Acid Bacillus may also be used to treat infectious diarrhoea. A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria infect the body. Infectious or harmful bacteria can make you sick and reproduce quickly in the body.

Amoxycillin+clavulanic Acid+lactic Acid Bacillus is a combination of three drugs, namely: Amoxycillin, Clavulanic acid, and Lactic acid bacillus. Amoxycillin works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering, which is necessary for the survival of the bacteria. Thereby, it kills the bacteria. Clavulanic acid works by decreasing bacterial resistance and enhancing the activity of Amoxycillin against the bacteria. Lactic acid bacillus is a probiotic which helps in restoring the balance of good bacteria in the gut which may have gotten upset due to the infection. Together, Amoxycillin+clavulanic Acid+lactic Acid Bacillus helps in treating bacterial infections.
