Sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium IM/IV is indicated for infections caused by susceptible microorganisms. Typical indications are upper and lower respiratory tract infections including sinusitis, otitis media and epiglottitis; bacterial pneumonias; urinary tract infections and pyelonephritis; intra-abdominal infections including peritonitis, cholecystitis, endometritis and pelvic cellulitis; bacterial septicemia; skin, soft tissue, bone and joint infections and gonococcal infections.
Sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium IM/IV may also be administered peri-operatively to reduce the incidence of post-operative wound infections in patients undergoing abdominal or pelvic surgery, in which peritoneal contamination may be present. In termination of pregnancy or cesarean section, sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium IM/IV may be used prophylactically to reduce post-operative sepsis.
