Blood and Urine Tests

If your child is having blood tests (such as studies of red blood cell status or tests to check liver function) or urine tests (to check glucose levels), inform your doctor or nurse that they are taking Amoxicillin/Clavulanic Acid Normon.

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if your child is using or has recently used or might use other medicines.
