Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary, generally mild, and resolve upon stopping the use of Amoclav 625 Tablet 10. However, if you experience serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, consult your doctor.

Here are some tips for alleviating some common side effects:

Diarrhoea: Taking Amoclav 625 Tablet 10 with food can often lessen this effect.
Nausea: If nausea occurs after taking this medicine, consider taking it with or immediately after meals to reduce this effect.

Amoclav 625 Tablet 10 consists of three active ingredients:

Amoxicillin (500 mg): This antibiotic works by stopping the growth of bacteria in your body. It does this by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. It binds to and inactivates certain enzymes involved in the production of the bacterial cell wall. This disrupts cell wall formation, leading to the destruction and eventual death of the bacteria.
Clavulanic acid (125 mg): This substance amplifies the effectiveness of amoxicillin by preventing bacteria from destroying it. It does this by inhibiting beta-lactamases, which are bacterial enzymes that break down and neutralise penicillin antibiotics.
Lactobacillus (60 M): This 'good' bacterium promotes a healthy balance of gut flora. It competes with harmful bacteria for nutrients and attachment sites in the gut, produces substances that kill or inhibit harmful bacteria and enhances the immune response. This helps reduce antibiotic-associated side effects like diarrhoea.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Amoclav 625 Tablet 10 if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

If you are breastfeeding, it is recommended that you discuss the potential risks and benefits of using Amoclav 625 Tablet 10 with your doctor.
