Antibiotics Stop infection one of two ways. Either by inhibiting the Spread and growth of bacteria (thereby allowing the bacteria to die off naturally and be destroyed by the body’s immune system) or by actually killing the bacteria by means of bacterial death upon contact with certain concentrations of drugs. Antibiotics that use the first method are called bacteriostatic drugs. The ones that kill bacteria are called bactericidal. It is not important for you to know which antibiotics fall into which class. What is important is this, in both methods of stopping infection some bacteria are hardier and take longer to kill or die. These bacteria will live on if antibiotics are discontinued to soon. These few bacteria that were not destroyed will begin to reproduce and in some cases after having been exposed to one antibiotic will build their own immunity to that antibiotic. This is called building resistance and is why chemists have to Keep coming up with new drugs year after year. The old drugs Stop working after a while.

Uses/benefits Clavamox For Chickens
Many common bacteria are protected by the ß-lactamase enzyme that binds to and inactivates many penicillins and cephalosporins
Amoxicillin alone is unable to inhibit ß-lactamase
Clavulanic acid (clavulanate potassium) permanently inhibits ß-lactamase
Once the ß-lactamase is neutralized, amoxicillin disrupts cell wall integrity
Proven effective 4-to-1 ratio of amoxicillin trihydrate to clavulanic acid
Four-quadrant activity provides broad-spectrum coverage you can trust
