Description

Mega-CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet DT is a low-dose, fast-dissolving antibiotic designed to treat mild to moderate bacterial infections. It contains:

Amoxycillin (200mg): A broad-spectrum penicillin antibiotic that disrupts bacterial cell wall synthesis, killing the bacteria.
Clavulanic Acid (28.5mg): A beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects Amoxycillin from enzymatic breakdown by resistant bacteria, enhancing its effectiveness.

The DT (dispersible tablet) form allows for easy administration, particularly in children or patients who have difficulty swallowing tablets.

Uses / Indications

Respiratory tract infections (sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia)
Ear, nose, and throat infections (tonsillitis, pharyngitis, otitis media)
Skin and soft tissue infections
Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Dental infections
Suitable for pediatric use or patients needing a fast-dissolving formulation

How It Works

Amoxycillin inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis, causing bacterial cell death.
Clavulanic Acid prevents beta-lactamase enzymes from destroying Amoxycillin.
The combination provides enhanced antibacterial activity, including against resistant bacteria.
Dispersible form allows quick dissolution in water, facilitating easier ingestion.
