Polyclav-DS Dry Syrup 1*30ML

Polyclav-DS Dry Syrup is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections in the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, urinary tract, and resistant tuberculosis. It contains amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, which work together to kill bacteria, including strains that are resistant to other treatments.

Uses

Key Benefits

Effective Against Resistant Bacteria: Clavulanic acid inhibits bacterial enzymes (beta-lactamase) that would normally make amoxicillin ineffective, allowing the antibiotic to kill resistant bacteria

How It Works

Amoxicillin: Prevents bacteria from forming a protective cell wall, killing them

Clavulanic Acid: Blocks enzymes produced by resistant bacteria, enhancing amoxicillin’s effect
