Overview Myclav 500mg/125mg Tablet

This antibiotic medication, Myclav 500mg/125mg Tablet, combats bacterial infections. It's indicated for treating infections affecting the lungs (pneumonia, for example), ears, sinuses, urinary tract, skin, and soft tissues.

Premature discontinuation risks bacterial survival and infection recurrence or exacerbation. Common side effects, typically mild, include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, oral/vaginal/skin-fold fungal infections, rashes, and vaginitis.
