Product Details:

Description:

Toxo-Mox® manufacturer is SavaVet. Made from the raw materials of Amoxicillin and Clavulanic Acid (Potassium Clavulanate).

Amoxicillin: semisynthetic antibiotic, drug class of Aminopenicillins from the broad spectrum of antibacterial action against many gram-positive & negative microorganisms.

Clavulanic Acid: beta-lactamase inhibitor, protects Amoxicillin from degradation by beta-lactamase enzymes and extends its activity.

Indications:

Dogs: skin infections (wounds, abscesses, cellulitis), periodontal infections due to aerobic and anaerobic bacteria (canine periodontal disease).

Cats: skin infections (e.g., wounds, abscesses, and cellulitis/dermatitis), urinary tract infections (e.g., cystitis due to susceptible strains of E. coli).

Not effective for treating infections caused by a virus or fungus.

Mechanism of Action:

Amoxicillin is a bactericidal agent, which kills bacteria by inhibiting the synthesis of a substance in cell wall called Peptidoglycan, which is the main component of the cell walls of both gram-positive and negative bacteria.

Clavulanic Acid inactivates a wide variety of enzymes called β-lactamases by blocking their active sites, effective against gram-positive bacteria.
