Clavamox question

My Westie is 18 1/2 years old. He was prescribed 250mg Clavamox twice a day and also Metacam and Tramadol.
My question is about Clavamox and the 3 drug combination. The insert recommends a dosage of 125mg Clavamox based on his weight, yet the dosing instructions the vet gave me are double (250mg). How concerned should I be? I've read the wiki etc. and I've taken a human form of this myself, and I consider it pretty safe.
The combination of 3 drugs is a big sudden load on his system and I'm worried about liver damage and other side effects. He's basically been a very healthy dog all his life, and if he gets through this I would expect probably at least another 6 months of daily walks and long naps. I'm very worried. Any advice would be appreciated.
