Toxo-Mox (Amoxycillin/Potassium Clavulanate)
What is Toxo-Mox (Amoxycillin/Potassium Clavulanate) used for? TOXO-MOX (Amoxycillin/Potassium Clavulanate) is combination of amoxycillin and clavulanic acid. These substances used for treatment bacterial infection in cats and dogs. TOXO-MOX (Amoxycillin/Potassium Clavulanate) is effective in treatment infections of the urinary, upper and lower respiratory tract, skin and digestive system. TOXO-MOX 250 (Amoxycillin/Potassium Clavulanate) has a bactericidal effect, it inhibits the synthesis of the bacterial wall. Active against aerobic gram-positive bacteria (including strains that produce beta-lactamase): Staphylococcus aureus; aerobic gram-negative bacteria: Enterobacter spp., Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella spp., Moraxella catarrhalis. Clavulanic acid inhibits type II, III, IV and V beta-lactamase, but is inactive against type I beta-lactamase, produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia spp., Acinetobacter spp. Clavulanic acid has a high tropism for penicillinases, thereby forming a stable complex with the enzyme, which prevents the enzymatic degradation of amoxicillin under the influence of beta-lactamase.
