Product Description

Ceftriaxone:

  • Class: Ceftriaxone is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic.
  • Mechanism of Action: It inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins, disrupting the final step in the formation of the bacterial cell wall.
  • Spectrum of Activity: Ceftriaxone has a broad spectrum of activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Sulbactam:

  • Class: Sulbactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor.
  • Mechanism of Action: Sulbactam inhibits beta-lactamases, enzymes produced by bacteria that can break down beta-lactam antibiotics. By inhibiting beta-lactamases, sulbactam enhances the activity of beta-lactam antibiotics.

Combination Formulation:

  • Dosage Form: The combination is formulated as a sterile powder for reconstitution for intravenous use.
  • Administration: It is typically administered intravenously by healthcare professionals.

Indications:

  • The combination is used for the treatment of infections caused by bacteria susceptible to both ceftriaxone and sulbactam.
  • It is often used in the management of complicated intra-abdominal infections, urinary tract infections, respiratory tract infections, and other serious bacterial infections.

Key Features:

  • Enhanced Spectrum: Sulbactam broadens the spectrum of antibacterial activity by inhibiting beta-lactamases, allowing ceftriaxone to be effective against certain bacteria that may produce these enzymes.
  • Synergistic Effect: The combination provides a synergistic effect against beta-lactamase-producing bacteria.

Adverse Effects:

  • Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and injection site reactions.
  • As with any antibiotic, there is a risk of hypersensitivity reactions.

Precautions:

  • Patients with known allergies to cephalosporins or penicillins should use the combination with caution.
  • Standard precautions for the use of cephalosporins and beta-lactamase inhibitors apply.

Special Considerations:

  • Dosage and administration guidelines are determined by healthcare professionals based on the specific formulation of the combination.
  • Regular monitoring for adverse effects and appropriate adjustments in dosage, if needed, are important.

As with any medication, it’s crucial to refer to the latest prescribing information, product labeling, or consult with a healthcare professional for the most up-to-date and accurate information on a specific medication combination like ceftriaxone and sulbactam.
