A penicillin-like antibiotic + beta-lactamase inhibitor
Clavulanic acid protects amoxycillin from
degradation by beta-lactamase enzymes. Hence it extends the antibiotic
spectrum of amoxycillin to include many bacteria normally resistant to
amoxycillin. Amoxycillin exerts its action by inhibiting the bacterial cell
wall synthesis.
