OMNICLAV DS

Description

OMNICLAV DS is a pediatric dry syrup formulation from Cipla Ltd., combining Amoxicillin and Potassium Clavulanate. This combination is designed to provide broad-spectrum antibacterial action, effective against beta-lactamase producing bacteria that may resist standard penicillin therapy.

• Amoxicillin kills bacteria by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, stopping bacterial growth.

• Potassium Clavulanate protects Amoxicillin from degradation by beta-lactamase enzymes, enhancing its effectiveness.

This makes OMNICLAV DS 30ML ideal for treating various bacterial infections in children, including respiratory, urinary, and skin infections.
