Augmentin is a prescription antibiotic that is prescribed to combat a range of infections caused by bacteria. It consists of two active ingredients, amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium. Amoxicillin, an antibiotic from the penicillin class, fights against bacteria in the body, while clavulanate potassium acts as a beta-lactamase inhibitor to prevent specific bacteria from developing resistance to amoxicillin.

What's In It
Warning
If you have severe kidney disease, a history of liver problems or jaundice while taking amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium, or allergies to penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotics, it is advised to avoid using Augmentin. Consult your doctor about using a non-hormonal birth control method to prevent pregnancy while on this medication, as Augmentin can decrease the effectiveness of birth control pills. Serious side effects linked to Augmentin include liver problems and severe skin reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS). In case of allergic reactions, seek emergency help promptly.
