Arterium Corporation launches new antibacterial drug

In July, Arterium Corporation* launched its new antibacterial product Amoxil K-1000 in Ukraine. A broad-spectrum antibiotic targeting most gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms, the product is the latest addition to Arterium's Amoxil line that already includes powder for injection Amoxil-K and film-coated tablets Amoxil-K 625.

Amoxil K-1000 includes two active ingredients: amoxicillin and clavulanic acid (qualitative content—875 mg to 125 mg). Such proportion of active ingredients helps enhance the antibacterial effect of the drug, prolonging its effect on microorganisms. Amoxil K-1000 enables wider use of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid for doctors to choose an optimal treatment regimen. Antibiotics of this group — co-amoxiclavs (amoxicillin+clavulanic acid) — are often the drugs of choice in the treatment of many bacterial-infection-induced diseases in adults and children: otitis, sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, cystitis and pyelonephritis, skin and soft tissue infection, etc.

The launch was preceded by a clinical trial, which confirmed bioequivalence of Arterium's Amoxil K-1000 to the original drug — Augmentin (GSK, the UK). Manufactured by Arterium Corporation’s Kievmedpreparat, Amoxil K-1000 is available in the form of 1000-mg tablets, 14 tablets per a pack.
