Answer 2

The correct name of the antibiotic you are taking is "co-amoxiclav". It is a combination of amoxicillin and clavulonic avid.

You should take the complete antibiotic course, due to the differing mechanisms of antibiotics some "fix" the bacteria whereas some kill them. You may not feel the effects until after completing the course.

Frankly, not completing an antibiotic course is dangerous. You run the risk of drug resistant bacteria forming inside you (e.g. MRSA and Clostridium difficile).
