Co-Amoxiclav is primarily used to treat bacterial infections. The combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid targets a wide range of bacteria, making it effective for respiratory infections like bronchitis and pneumonia, as well as urinary tract infections and skin infections. This medication is often prescribed when infections are resistant to other antibiotics.

Common effects of Co-Amoxiclav may include diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. Some users also report skin rashes or allergic reactions. These effects vary by individual and are not experienced by everyone. If you have concerns about side effects, consult a healthcare professional.

Co-Amoxiclav should be used with caution in individuals with a history of allergic reactions to penicillin or other antibiotics. It's important to follow the prescribed dosage and complete the full course of treatment. Always inform your healthcare provider about any other medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions.

Co-Amoxiclav may interact with other medications, including blood thinners, methotrexate, and probenecid. Alcohol should be avoided as it can increase the risk of side effects. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting any new medication while taking Co-Amoxiclav.
