Application

Clavulanate is used as an inhibitor of bacterial β-lactamase enzymes. It is produced by the fermentation of Streptomyces clavuligerus. It has weak antibacterial activity when used alone but is very active when used with amoxicillin. With Amoxicillin, it is used to treat infections caused by Staph. aureus, Bacteroides fragilis, H. influenza and E. coli.. It has been used to treat acute bacterial sinusitis in children and chronic adenotonsillar hypertrophy.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Clavulanate is a β-lactam antibiotic related to the penicillins. Clavulanic acid competitively and irreversibly inhibits a wide variety of β-lactamases which are commonly found in microorganisms that are resistant to penicillins and cephalosporins. Clavulanate also is a modulator of the central nervous system. It enhances dopamine release in PC12 and SH-SY5Y cells without affecting dopamine synthesis.
Clavulanate is a β-lactamase inhibitor often used to enhance the antibacterial activity of amoxicillin.
