METHODS FOR USE OF LOWER DOSE COMPOSITIONS OF AMOXICILLIN AND CLAVULANATE POTASSIUM AND DEVICES FOR USE

摘要

The invention is directed to a method of treating bacterial infections by providing two or more dosages of a composition, over a period of about three to about fourteen consecutive days, containing amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium where the clavulanate potassium is present in an amount of about 0.1 mg/5 ML to about 32.5 mg/5 mL. The ratio of amoxicillin to clavulanate potassium is between about 28:1 to about 56:1. Further, the invention includes a dispensing system which dispenses two or more doses of a pharmaceutically active composition that is a mixture of at least two pharmaceutically active compounds. A device including one or more chambers containing two or more pharmaceutically active compounds is set for either constant doses or varying doses.
