Medicinal Benefits:

Augpen HS BID Syrup is a combination medicine containing Amoxycillin and Clavulanic acid. It is a broad-spectrum penicillin-type antibiotic that acts against both aerobic (grow in the presence of oxygen) and anaerobic (grow in the absence of oxygen) bacteria. Augpen HS BID Syrup is used to treat several bacterial infections in children. Augpen HS BID Syrup works by inhibiting the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) and causing damage to the bacterial cell wall. This eventually leads to the death of the bacterial cell and thus prevents the growth of bacterial infections. Clavulanic acid inhibits the beta-lactamase enzyme, which prevents bacteria from destroying the efficacy of amoxycillin.
