  • Title: The protective effect of clavulanic acid in a combined formulation on the concentration of amoxycillin in the urine of patients with urinary tract infections.
    Author: Lindeque KP.
    Journal: S Afr Med J; 1982 Jul 28; 62(5 Spec No):12A-13A. PubMed ID: 7046103.
    Abstract:
    Three paraplegic patients with urinary tract infections caused by a beta-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae were treated with a combination of amoxycillin and clavulanic acid (A-CA) (Augmentin; Beecham), after initial and unsuccessful therapy with amoxycillin alone. The administration of A-CA resulted in a rapid decrease in the urinary bacterial cell count, coupled with a dramatic increase in urinary amoxycillin concentrations.
