PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
The combined preparation of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor.
It acts bactericidal, inhibits the synthesis of the bacterial wall.

It is active against aerobic Gram-positive bacteria (including strains producing beta-lactamases): Staphylococcus aureus;
aerobic Gram-negative bacteria : Enterobacter spp., Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella spp., Moraxella catarrhalis. The following pathogens are sensitive only in vitro: Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus anthracis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus viridans, Enterococcus faecalis, Corynebacterium spp., Listeria monocytogenes; anaerobic Clostridium spp., Peptococcus spp., Peptostreptococcus spp .; as well as aerobic Gram-negative bacteria(including strains producing beta-lactamases): Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., Bordetella pertussis, Yersinia enterocolitica, Gardnerella vaginalis, Neisseria meningitidis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Haemophilus ducreyi, Yersinia multocida previously Pasteurella), Campylobacter jejuni;anaerobic gram-negative bacteria (including strains producing beta-lactamases): Bacteroides spp., including Bacteroides fragilis.
Clavulanic acid inhibits II, III, IV and V types of beta-lactamases, is not active against type I beta-lactamases produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia spp., Acinetobacter spp.
Clavulanic acid has a high tropism for penicillinases, due to which it forms a stable complex with the enzyme, which prevents enzymatic degradation of amoxicillin under the influence of beta-lactamases.
PHARMACOKINETICS
After oral administration, both components are rapidly absorbed into the digestive tract.
Simultaneous food intake does not affect absorption. T Cmax - 45 min. After oral administration at a dose of 250/125 mg every 8 hours, C max amoxicillin is 2.18-4.5 Ојg / ml, clavulanic acid is 0.8-2.2 Ојg / ml, in a dose of 500/125 mg every 12 hours C max amoxicillin is 5.09-7.91 Ојg / ml, clavulanic acid 1.19-2.41 Ојg / ml, 500/125 mg every 8 hours C max amoxicillin - 4.94-9.46 Ојg / ml, clavulanic acid 1.57-3.23 Ојg / ml, at a dose of 875/125 mg C max of amoxicillin - 8.82-14.38 Ојg / ml, clavulanic acid - 1.21-3.19 Ојg / ml.
After intravenous administration at doses of 1000/200 and 500/100 mg C max, amoxicillin is 105.4 and 32.2 Ојg / ml, respectively, and clavulanic acid is 28.5 and 10.5 Ојg / ml.

The time to reach the maximum inhibitory concentration of 1 Ојg / ml for amoxicillin is similar when administered after 12 hours and 8 hours in both adults and children.


Connection with plasma proteins: amoxicillin - 17-20%, clavulanic acid - 22-30%.


Metabolised both components in the liver: amoxicillin - 10% of the administered dose, clavulanic acid - 50%.


T 1/2 after taking in a dose of 375 and 625 mg - 1 and 1.3 h for amoxicillin, 1.2 and 0.8 h for clavulanic acid, respectively.
T 1/2 after iv introduction at a dose of 1200 and 600 mg - 0.9 and 1.07 h - for amoxicillin, 0.9 and 1.12 h for clavulanic acid, respectively. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys (glomerular filtration and tubular secretion): 50-78 and 25-40% of the administered dose of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, respectively, in unchanged form during the first 6 hours after administration.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
In course treatment it is necessary to monitor the status of the functions of the organs of hematopoiesis, liver and kidneys.


To reduce the risk of side effects from the gastrointestinal tract, you should take the drug while eating.


It is possible to develop superinfection due to the growth of insensitive microflora, which requires a corresponding change in antibacterial therapy.


Can give false positive results in determining glucose in the urine.
In this case, it is recommended to use a glucose oxidant method for determining the concentration of glucose in the urine.

After reconstitution, the suspension should be stored for no more than 7 days in the refrigerator, but not frozen.


In patients who are hypersensitive to penicillins, there may be cross-allergic reactions with cephalosporin antibiotics.


Cases of development of necrotizing enterocolitis in newborns, in pregnant women with premature rupture of membranes were revealed.


Since the tablets contain the same amount of clavulanic acid (125 mg), it should be noted that 2 tablets of 250 mg (for amoxicillin) are not equivalent to 1 tablet of 500 mg (for amoxicillin).

OVERDOSE
Symptoms: a violation of the function of the gastrointestinal tract and water-electrolyte balance.


Treatment: symptomatic.
Hemodialysis is effective.
DRUG INTERACTION
Antacids, glucosamine, laxative drugs, aminoglycosides slow down and reduce absorption;
ascorbic acid increases absorption.
Bacteriostatic medicinal products (macrolides, chloramphenicol, lincosamides, tetracyclines, sulfonamides) have an antagonistic effect.

Increases the effectiveness of indirect anticoagulants (suppressing the intestinal microflora, reduces the synthesis of vitamin K and prothrombin index).
With the simultaneous administration of anticoagulants, it is necessary to monitor blood coagulability.
Reduces the effectiveness of oral contraceptives, drugs, in the process of metabolism which forms PABC, ethinyl estradiol - the risk of bleeding "breakthrough".

Diuretics, allopurinol, phenylbutazone, NSAIDs, and other drugs that block tubular secretion, increase the concentration of amoxicillin (clavulanic acid is excreted mainly by glomerular filtration).

Allopurinol increases the risk of skin rash.
