Active ingredients

The drug AUGMENTIN contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):

1 Amoxicillin trihydrate
UNII 544Y3D6MYH - AMOXICILLIN SODIUM

Amoxicillin is a semisynthetic penicillin (beta-lactam antibiotic) that inhibits one or more enzymes (often referred to as penicillin-binding proteins, PBPs) in the biosynthetic pathway of bactericidal peptidoglycan, which is an integral structural component of the bacterial cell wall. Inhibition of peptidoglycan synthesis leads to weakening of the cell wall, which is usually followed by cell lysis and death.

2 Clavulanic acid
UNII Q42OMW3AT8 - CLAVULANATE POTASSIUM

Clavulanic acid is a beta-lactam structurally related to penicillins. It inactivates some beta-lactamase enzymes thereby preventing inactivation of amoxicillin.
