I have an ear infection whilst on holiday. i have been given augmentin (amoxicillin and clavulanate) 875 mg by a pharmacist. this seems a high dosage ?

Common Adult Dosage: This is a common adult dosage, required due to presence of partial resistance of some respiratory germs. Doses of more than twice this amount are occasionally used for sinusitis in adults.
