One tablet contains 250 mg of ampicillin.
pharmachologic effect
Ampicillin trihydrate is an antibiotic of the group of semisynthetic penicillins. Has an antibacterial (bactericidal) effect. Active against a wide range of gram-positive (alpha- and beta-hemolytic streptococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Starhylococcus spp., with the exception of penicillinase-producing strains, Bacillus anthracis, Clostridium spp., Enterococcus spp.) and gram-negative (Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria meningitidis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Salmonella spp., Proteus mirabilis, Listeria monocytogenes, Shigella spp., Escherichia coli, Bordetella pertussis) microorganisms. It is destroyed by penicillinase and therefore has no effect on penicillinase-producing strains of pathogens.Pharmacokinetics:
40-60% of the dose taken is absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum concentration in the blood is achieved 1.5-2 hours after administration. Penetrates into tissues and biological fluids of the body. Does not break down in the acidic environment of the stomach. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys unchanged. High concentrations of unchanged antibiotic are created in the urine. Partially excreted with bile, in nursing mothers - with milk. With repeated administrations it does not accumulate, which makes it possible to use ampicillin trihydrate for a long time.
Indications for use
Inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract: pneumonia (pneumonia), bronchitis (inflammation of the bronchi), pharyngitis (inflammation of the pharynx), etc.; urological diseases: pyelonephritis (inflammation of the kidney tissue and renal pelvis), cystitis (inflammation of the bladder), prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate gland), intestinal infections: dysentery, salmonellosis, enterocolitis (inflammation of the small and large intestines), septic endocarditis (inflammation of the internal cavities of the heart due to the presence of microbes in the blood), meningitis (inflammation of the membranes of the brain), erysipelas and others.Mode of application
Ampicillin trihydrate is administered orally, regardless of food intake. A single dose for adults is 0.5 g, a daily dose is 2-3 g. Children over 1 month of age are prescribed a daily dose of 100 mg/kg. The daily dose is divided into 4-6 doses. The duration of treatment is set individually depending on the severity and form of the disease (from 5-10 days to 2-3 weeks or more).Side effects
Allergic reactions: possible - itching and peeling of the skin, urticaria, rhinitis, conjunctivitis, angioedema, rarely - fever, arthralgia, eosinophilia, erythematous and maculopapular rash, exfoliative dermatitis, exudative erythema multiforme (including Stevens-Johnson syndrome), reactions, similar to serum sickness, in isolated cases - anaphylactic shock, non-allergic ampicillin rash, which may disappear without stopping the drug.From the digestive system: dysbacteriosis, stomatitis, gastritis, dry mouth, change in taste, abdominal pain, vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, stomatitis, glossitis, moderate increase in the activity of “liver” transaminases, pseudomembranous enterocolitis.
From the central nervous system: headache, tremor, convulsions (with high-dose therapy).
Laboratory indicators: leukopenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, agranulocytosis, anemia.
Local reactions: pain at the injection site, infiltrates with intramuscular injection, phlebitis with intravenous administration in large doses.
Other: interstitial nephritis, nephropathy, superinfection (especially in patients with chronic diseases or reduced body resistance), vaginal candidiasis.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity (including to other penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems), infectious mononucleosis, lymphocytic leukemia, liver failure, history of gastrointestinal diseases (especially colitis associated with the use of antibiotics), lactation period, children's age (up to 1 month). With caution. Bronchial asthma, hay fever and other allergic diseases, renal failure, history of bleeding, pregnancy.Overdose:
Symptoms - manifestations of toxic effects on the central nervous system (especially in patients with renal failure); nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, water and electrolyte imbalance (as a result of vomiting and diarrhea).
Treatment is gastric lavage, activated charcoal, saline laxatives, drugs to maintain water-electrolyte balance and symptomatic. Eliminated by hemodialysis.
Drug interactions:
Ampicillin trihydrate reduces the effect of oral contraceptives and increases the effect of anticoagulants and aminoglycoside antibiotics. Allopurinol increases the likelihood of skin rashes. Probenecid, when used simultaneously with ampicillin, reduces the tubular secretion of the latter, resulting in an increase in the concentration of ampicillin in the blood plasma and an increased risk of developing toxic effects.

Drug interactions
Pharmaceutically incompatible with aminoglycosides.
Antacids, glucosamine, laxatives, foods and aminoglycosides slow down and reduce absorption.
Ascorbic acid increases absorption.
Bactericidal antibiotics (including aminoglycosides, cephalosporins, cycloserine, vancomycin, rifampicin) have a synergistic effect; bacteriostatic drugs (macrolides, chloramphenicol, lincosamides, tetracyclines, sulfonamides) - antagonistic.
Increases the effectiveness of indirect anticoagulants (suppressing intestinal microflora, reduces the synthesis of vitamin K and the prothrombin index).
Reduces the effectiveness of estrogen-containing oral contraceptives (it is necessary to use additional methods of contraception), drugs during the metabolism of which para-aminobenzoic acid is formed, ethinyl estradiol (in the latter case, the risk of breakthrough bleeding increases).
Diuretics, allopurinol, oxyphenbutazone, phenylbutazone, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and other drugs that block tubular secretion increase the concentration of ampicillin in plasma (by reducing tubular secretion).
Allopurinol increases the risk of developing skin rashes.
Reduces clearance and increases toxicity of methotrexate.
special instructions
During treatment, systematic monitoring of renal, liver and peripheral blood function is necessary. Patients with impaired renal function require a doctor-recommended adjustment of the dosage regimen in accordance with creatinine clearance values. It is possible that superinfection may develop due to the growth of microflora that is insensitive to it, which requires a corresponding change in antibacterial therapy.
When used in high doses in patients with renal failure, toxic effects on the central nervous system are possible.
When ampicillin is used in patients with bacteremia (sepsis), a bacteriolysis reaction (Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction) is possible.
When treating mild diarrhea that occurs during a course of treatment, antidiarrheal drugs that reduce intestinal motility should be avoided; You can use kaolin- or attapulgite-containing antidiarrheal drugs; discontinuation of the drug is indicated. If diarrhea is severe, consult a doctor. Treatment must be continued
huddle for another 48 - 72 hours after the disappearance of clinical signs of the disease.
At the first signs of allergy, the drug is discontinued and desensitizing therapy is carried out.
Carefully:
Bronchial asthma
Hay fever and other allergic diseases
Kidney failure
History of bleeding
Pregnancy
Use during pregnancy is possible when the benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.
Features of the effect of the drug on the ability to drive a vehicle or potentially dangerous mechanisms
During the treatment period, care must be taken when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions.
Overdose
Symptoms: manifestations of toxic effects on the central nervous system (especially in patients with renal failure); nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, water and electrolyte imbalance (as a result of vomiting and diarrhea).
