How Clavage 1000 Tablet Works

Clavage 1000 Tablet works through the combined action of Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid.

Clavulanic acid, on the other hand, prevents beta-lactamase enzymes produced by certain bacteria from breaking down Amoxicillin. This enhances the effectiveness of Amoxicillin, especially against antibiotic-resistant bacteria that produce these enzymes.
