Pregunta:

Talk about Clavulanic acid.

Autor: H K



Respuesta:

Suicide inhibitor (Let’s say I have one molecule of amoxicillin and attached to it a few molecules of clavulanic acid which have a similar structure. The incoming bacteria which are supposed to face this combination will start to destroy the clavulanic acid first. It distracts them until amoxicillin starts antimicrobial activity. It is like they commit suicide to help amoxicillin do its job) N.B: clavulanic acid alone doesn't do anything
