How does this medication work?
This syrup works via a dual mechanism and includes medicine Amoxycillin and Clavulanic Acid. It is used for the treatment of bacterial infection. Amoxycillin is a Penicillin antibiotic and inhibits the transfer of a peptide group in the transpeptidation process. As a result, the bacterium is not able to build cell walls and is killed.
