Each Synulox 50 mg tablet contains: 40 mg Amoxicillin + 10 mg Clavulanic acid Resistance to many antibiotics is produced by beta-lactamases, enzymes that inactivate the antibiotic before it can act on the bacteria. The clavulanic acid in SYNULOX neutralizes this defense mechanism of bacteria by inactivating beta-lactamase, and microorganisms become sensitive to the rapid bactericidal effect of amoxycillin, in concentrations easily reached in the body. It acts against a wide range of bacteria, such as: Staphylococcus spp. (including beta-lactamase-producing strains); Escherichia coli (including beta-lactamase-producing strains); Salmonella spp. (including beta-lactamase-producing strains); Pasteurella spp. (including beta-lactamase-producing strains); Bacteroides (including beta-lactamase-producing strains); Haemophilus spp.; Bordetella bronchiseptica; Campylobacter spp.; Klebsiella; Proteus spp.; Streptococci; Corynebacterium spp.; Clostridium spp.; Fusobacterium necrophorum.
