Augclav Tablet is a combination medicine used to treat various types of bacterial infections. It fights against microorganisms to prevent their growth and further spread of the infection. Augclav Tablet is a prescription medicine. It is advised to take it as per the prescription. It can be taken with or without food but it must be taken at a fixed time to ensure better efficacy. Do not consume more than the recommended dose as this may have harmful effects on your body. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. The course of the treatment must be completed even if you feel better. Sudden discontinuation of the treatment may affect the potency of the medicine.
Augclav Tablet is a combination of three medicines: Amoxycillin, Clavulanic Acid and Lactobacillus. Amoxycillin is an antibiotic. It works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering which is essential for the survival of bacteria. Clavulanic Acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor which reduces resistance and enhances the activity of Amoxycillin against bacteria. This treats your infection but may upset your digestive system by killing healthy gut bacteria as well. Lactobacillus is added to restore the balance of healthy bacteria.
Are there any contraindications associated with using Augclav Tablet?
Augclav Tablet is contraindicated for patients with a history of allergic reactions to penicillin. It should also be avoided in individuals with a prior history of cholestatic jaundice or liver dysfunction caused by the medication.

Augclav Tablet can be taken every 8 hours or every 12 hours, as prescribed by your doctor. It should be taken with a meal or snack to potentially reduce the risk of gastrointestinal upset. Some antibiotics can cause diarrhea. If you experience severe diarrhea for more than two or three days, please contact your physician.
Can I stop Augclav Tablet before completion if I feel better?
No, it is crucial to complete the full course of treatment even if you feel better. It is common to experience improvement early in therapy. However, skipping doses or not finishing the entire course may decrease the medication's effectiveness and may also contribute to the development of bacterial resistance.
Can I use Augclav Tablet if I am allergic to penicillin?
