I would like to complain about this amoxyclav suspension which i bought for my daughter when i was on a holiday to india from united kingdom.
I found conflicting information about the concentration of the suspension. The front mentions 3.3 g in 30 mls but when i looked at the information about the constituents at the back it says every 5 mls contains 200mg of amoxicillin and 28.5 mg of clavulanic acid. So 30 mls will contain 1.371 g. So i was not sure what the actual content is?
Hence i did not use it. I am a doctor and hence able to spot this error which a common man might have missed.
This is a significant safety issue with a likelihood of causing harm due to incorrect dosing either causing toxic effects due to high dose or leading to the medicine being ineffective and can cause worsening of the infection for which it is used for. I would be grateful if you can take appropriate action.
Thank you
