Drug pricing is set separately in each country through different negotiation, regulatory, and distribution systems, so the same medication can legitimately carry different price tags on either side of the border. In this case, our data shows the US price is actually the lower of the two once a program like Cost Plus Drugs is factored in — the assumption that Canada is always cheaper doesn't hold for every drug.

Yes, the brand-name antibiotic Augmentin has a generic equivalent. The generic medication is called amoxicillin/clavulanate potassium, which contains the same two active ingredients.

Augmentin is a prescription combination antibiotic containing amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium. It is FDA-approved to treat a range of bacterial infections such as sinusitis, skin infections, ear infections, pneumonia, and urinary tract infections. Clavulanate is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that helps amoxicillin overcome bacterial resistance. The medication works by weakening and breaking down the bacterial cell wall, leading to the death of the bacteria. It is ineffective against viral illnesses like the cold or flu. A prescription is required, and a healthcare provider will determine if it's appropriate based on your condition and medical history. While generally considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, you should always inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as the drug's components can pass into breast milk.

Augmentin is manufactured in several forms for different patient needs, including immediate-release tablets, extended-release tablets, and a liquid oral suspension. The generic version (amoxicillin/clavulanate) is also available as chewable tablets. Tablets should be stored at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Once reconstituted, the liquid suspension must be refrigerated.
