Sure: Augmentin (amoxicillin and clavulanate) is one of the modt common antibiotic implicated in drug induced liver injury. However, the incidence of liver injury from augmention is very rare. I am not aware of any data that support increased risk of Augmentin (amoxicillin and clavulanate) in patients with gilbert' s syndrome.
