Klamoks BID What is it? What does it do?
Klamoks BID is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that combines amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. It is used to treat many bacterial infections. It is particularly effective against upper respiratory tract infections (such as sinusitis, tonsillitis, bronchitis), middle ear infections, urinary tract infections, and skin and soft tissue infections. Clavulanic acid enhances the effect of amoxicillin by preventing bacterial resistance mechanisms.
Klamoks BID should be used under a doctor’s supervision and is usually taken twice daily in tablet form. It is important not to stop antibiotic treatment prematurely; otherwise, the infection may return without full recovery and bacteria may develop resistance. The dosage and duration are determined by the physician according to the type and severity of the infection and the patient’s overall health condition.

Usage Instructions
The use of Klamoks BID should follow the doctor’s prescribed dose and duration. It is generally recommended to take it with meals, as this may reduce stomach discomfort. Tablets should be swallowed with plenty of water and taken at regular times during the treatment. A key point in antibiotic therapy is not to stop the medication before the prescribed period ends; otherwise, the infection may not fully heal and bacteria may develop resistance.
Regarding pregnancy, Klamoks BID should not be used without a doctor’s advice. In pregnant and breastfeeding women, it is prescribed only after a benefit–risk assessment by the physician. Alcohol consumption does not directly affect the drug’s efficacy, but it may increase gastrointestinal side effects and place extra strain on the liver. Therefore, alcohol should be avoided during treatment.

Side Effects
The most common side effects of Klamoks BID are related to the stomach and intestines. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and indigestion may frequently occur. In addition, fungal infections such as oral or vaginal candidiasis can develop. These side effects are usually mild and temporary, but if symptoms become severe, a doctor should be consulted.
Less common but potentially serious side effects may also occur. These include allergic reactions (rash, itching, shortness of breath, swelling of the face), liver dysfunction, jaundice, severe diarrhea (pseudomembranous colitis), skin blistering, and joint pain. Such conditions may require urgent medical attention. People with a history of allergy to penicillin or similar antibiotics may be at greater risk.
