This dose is a wee bit too much. I hope you clarified dose with the doctor.

The usual recommended dose is

For oral dosage form (tablets):

* Adults, teenagers, and children weighing more than 40 kg (88 pounds)—250 to 500 mg of amoxicillin, in combination with 125 mg of clavulanate, every eight hours or 500 to 875 mg of amoxicillin, in combination with 125 mg of clavulanate, every twelve hours.
