title: Synergistic antibacterial activity of clavulanic acid and amoxicillin against beta-lactamase-producing strains of Haemophilus ducreyi.
abstract: The susceptibility of 47 strains of Haemophilus ducreyi to amoxicillin, clavulanic acid, and the combination of both drugs was determined by agar dilution susceptibility testing. A synergistic antibacterial activity of the combination was found for beta-lactamase-producing strains.
