"Battle of Resistance"
This product is stable to gastric acid, good oral absorption, and food has no significant effect on the absorption of this product. 375 mg (250 mg amoxicillin and 125 mg clavulanic acid) is administered orally on an empty stomach. Amoxicillin reaches a peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of about 5.6 mg / L in 1.5 hours. The blood elimination half-life (t1 / 2) is about 1 hour. The 8-hour urine excretion rate is 50% to 78%. The pharmacokinetic parameters of clavulanic acid are the same as when used alone. Normal people reach a peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of about 1 mg / L after 125 mg of oral clavulanic acid, which is about 3.4 mg / L. The protein binding rate is 22% to 30%. The blood elimination half-life (t1 / 2) is 0.76 to 1.4 hours, and the urine excretion rate at 8 hours is about 46%. Oral bioavailability was 97% and 75%, respectively.
This product is a compound preparation composed of amoxicillin and potassium clavulanate in a 7: 1 ratio.
1 Aspirin, indomethacin, butazone, and sulfa drugs can reduce the excretion of this product in the renal tubules, thus increasing the blood concentration of this product, prolonging the blood elimination half-life (t1 / 2 (), and the toxicity may also increase .
2 When this product is combined with allopurinol, the incidence of rash is significantly increased, so it should be avoided.
3 This product should not be combined with acetaldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitors such as disulfiram.

See amoxicillin sodium. Children under 40kg should not use tablets, but should use suspensions. The clavulanic acid content in the 375mg and 625mg tablets are both 125mg, so the latter 1 tablet is not equal to the former 2 tablets.
This product does not affect absorption when taken orally. Taking it with food can reduce gastrointestinal reactions.
In patients with renal insufficiency, when the serum creatinine clearance rate is 10 to 30 ml / min and 2 to 9 ml / min, the dosing interval should be adjusted to once every 12 hours and 24 hours. [3]
