How Autobact 400mg/57mg Dry Syrup Works
Autobact 400mg/57mg Dry Syrup is a combination antibiotic containing Amoxycillin and Clavulanic Acid:
- Amoxycillin works by disrupting the formation of the bacterial cell wall, which is essential for bacteria to survive and reproduce.
- Clavulanic Acid inhibits the enzyme beta-lactamase, which is produced by resistant bacteria and deactivates amoxicillin. By blocking this enzyme, Clavulanic Acid ensures that Amoxycillin remains effective against resistant strains of bacteria.
Together, these two ingredients make Autobact an effective treatment for a wide range of bacterial infections, including resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB).
