Curam Duo

Curam Duo (Amoxicillin/Clavulanic Acid) is a penicillin antibiotic prescribed to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections. These may include chest infections, respiratory tract infections, ear infections, urinary tract infections, or Gonorrhea. It is typically prescribed for a set cycle of medication and operates by disrupting the cell wall structure and interfering with bacteria cell reproduction allowing the body`s immune system to destroy the infection naturally. Your physician may prescribe it along with other medicines or to treat other conditions not listed here.

Strictly follow your physician`s instructions for using Curam Duo (Amoxicillin/Clavulanic Acid) so get the most effective results. It is normally taken twice each day at the indicated dosage, but your particular regimen will be determined by the severity of your symptoms, current health condition, and response to other treatments. It will also be prescribed for a period lasting one or two weeks that should always be completed to ensure the complete elimination of the infection.

When taking the doses, swallow the tablets whole and unaltered along with a full glass of water. Tablets can be taken on an empty stomach, but a snack or meal is recommended prior to use if you get an upset stomach. Never alter the form of the tablets by crushing, splitting, chewing, or dissolving them in water as this can destroy their contents or alter their effects. It is also important to never stop taking the medication before directed, even if your symptoms appear to be gone, as the infection may not be destroyed and can relapse stronger and more resistant to treatment. Take the doses at the same times each day to get the most effective results by keeping a consistent level of medicine in the body at all times for the most efficient results.

Consult your physician while undergoing treatment so that your progress can be monitored. After observing your response to the medication, you may be instructed to adjust your dosage or frequency of application until the best effects occur. If you have any questions about the medicine, ask your pharmacist or physician to ensure the correct usage.
