What is Senitram (ampicillin + sulbactam)?

This drug combination is used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It is known as the penicillin antibiotic. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria.

How should you take ampicillin + sulbactam?

The drug is given intravenously, usually every 6 hours or as directed by a physician. The dosage is based on your health condition and your treatment. For children, dosage is also based on weight. If you take this medicine yourself at home, find out all the preparation and instructions from your doctor. Before use, check the product for grain or discoloration. If one of the above phenomena occurs, do not use liquid. Learn how to safely store and dispose of medical supplies.

Use aminoglycosides (such as gentamicin) separately with this drug. Do not mix when injected intravenously.

Antibiotics work best when the amount of medicine in your body is kept stable. So take them at regular intervals. Continue to use the medication until adequate dosage is prescribed, even if the symptoms disappear after a few days. Stopping too soon can cause the bacteria to continue to develop, which can lead to re-infection. Let your doctor know if your condition persists or worsens.

How to preserve ampicillin + sulbactam?

Your doctor will probably give you ampicillin and sulbactam for several days at the same time. If you inject ampicillin and sulbactam through the vein, you need to store it in a refrigerator or freezer.

Take the next dose from the refrigerator 1 hour before using it; Place the medication in a clean, dry place to help keep it warm at room temperature.

If you are told to keep ampicillin and sulbactam in the freezer, keep the 24-hour medicine in the cooler for future use.

Different drug labels may have different storage requirements. Check the package for instructions on how to store the medication, or ask your pharmacist. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children and pets.

Do not throw the medicine in the toilet or plumbing unless required. Dispose of properly when the drug is expired or unusable. Consult your local pharmacist or local waste disposal company for safe disposal.
