Hi,
Augmentin and zinnat are commonly prescribed to treat various infections caused by susceptible bacteria.
As far as kidneys and liver are concerned they are generally considered to be safe however very rarely they may cause a reversible and transient increase in liver enzymes indicating mild liver dysfunction.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
