Description

Sam Clav 1000mg Tablets contain amoxicillin with clavulanic acid and are made by Sami Pharmaceuticals. Amoxicillin kills bacteria by breaking down their cell walls, and clavulanic acid stops certain bacteria from inactivating amoxicillin. Together they work against a wider range of infections than amoxicillin alone. You can order it online from Divine Medicines with home delivery across Lahore.
