How It Works

Amoxicillin is a penicillin-type antibiotic that works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls. Bacteria need cell walls to protect themselves from their environment and to maintain their shape. By inhibiting cell wall synthesis, amoxicillin weakens the bacteria, making them more susceptible to the body's immune system and ultimately leading to their death. Clavulanate potassium is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that helps prevent bacterial resistance to amoxicillin. Some bacteria produce beta-lactamase enzymes, which can break down penicillin-type antibiotics like amoxicillin. Clavulanate potassium inhibits these enzymes, allowing amoxicillin to remain effective against a wider range of bacteria. Together, amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium are able to effectively treat bacterial infections in dogs and cats.
