Description / Action: 

Toxo-mox 250 mg and Toxo-mox 500 mg tablets contain Amoxicillin/Amoxycillin and Clavulanic acid. Amoxicillin/Amoxycillin is a semi-synthetic antibiotic of the Amino-penicillin group.  Amoxicillin/Amoxycillin has a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Amoxicillin binds to penicillin-binding proteins involved in bacterial cell wall synthesis. Clavulanic acid or clavulanate is a beta-lactamase inhibitor which protects amoxicillin from degradation by beta-lactamase enzymes and extends the activity of Amoxicillin.

Class: Antibiotic / Amino-penicillin with Beta-lactamase inhibitor
