It is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, particularly in children. This combination medicine is effective against bacteria that cause infections of the respiratory tract, ear, nose, throat, urinary tract, skin and soft tissues.

Clavulanic Acid:
Clavulanic Acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that prevents bacteria from breaking down Cefpodoxime, making the antibiotic more effective against resistant bacteria.
