Amoxycillin + Clavulanic Acid + Lactobacillus

Introduction

Amoxycillin + Clavulanic Acid + Lactobacillus is a triple-combination medicine used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections while maintaining gut health. Amoxycillin is a broad-spectrum penicillin-type antibiotic, Clavulanic Acid inhibits bacterial resistance mechanisms, and Lactobacillus is a probiotic that restores healthy gut bacteria often disrupted by antibiotics. This formulation is effective in managing respiratory, urinary, and skin infections, while minimizing the digestive disturbances commonly associated with antibiotic therapy.
