Each Synulox 50 mg tablet contains:
40 mg Amoxicillin + 10 mg Clavulanic Acid
Resistance to many antibiotics is produced by beta-lactamases, enzymes that inactivate the antibiotic before it can act on bacteria.
The clavulanic acid in SYNULOX neutralizes this defense mechanism of bacteria by inactivating beta-lactamase, and microorganisms become sensitive to the rapid bactericidal effect of amoxycillin, in concentrations easily achievable in the body.
It acts against a wide range of bacteria, such as:
Staphylococcus spp. (including beta-lactamase-producing strains);
Escherichia coli (including beta-lactamase-producing strains);
Salmonella spp. (including beta-lactamase-producing strains);
Pasteurella spp. (including beta-lactamase-producing strains);
Bacteroides (including beta-lactamase-producing strains);
Haemophillus spp.;
Bordetella bronchiseptica;
Campylobacter spp.;
Klebsiella;
Proteus spp.;
Streptococci;
Corynebacterium spp.;
Clostridium spp.;
Fusobacterium necrophorum.
