Chống chỉ định
Hypersensitivity to piperacillin or other penicillins.
Thận trọng
Patient w/ history of β-lactam hypersensitivity. Moderate to severe renal impairment. Pregnancy and lactation.
Observe for signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis during 1st dose. Monitor electrolytes and cardiac status, serum creatinine, BUN, hepatic function and CBC.
Quá liều
Symptoms: Neuromuscular hyperirritability or convulsive seizures. Management: Symptomatic and supportive treatment. May be removed by haemodialysis.
Tương tác
May prolong the neuromuscular blocking effect of vecuronium when used perioperatively. May enhance the anticoagulant effect of vit K antagonists (e.g. warfarin). May increase the risk of methotrexate toxicity. Probenecid may increase the peak serum level of piperacillin.

May result in false-positive reaction for glucose in the urine using a copper-reduction method.
Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Piperacillin inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to 1 or more of the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) which in turn inhibit the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis in bacterial cell walls. Bacteria eventually lyse due to ongoing activity of cell wall autolytic enzymes (autolysins and murein hydrolases) while cell wall assembly is arrested. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Well absorbed after IM inj. Time to peak plasma concentration: 30-50 min. Distribution: Widely distributed in body tissues and fluids. Crosses the placenta into the foetal circulation and enters breast milk (small amounts). Plasma protein binding: Approx 20%. Excretion: Via urine (approx 60-80%) as unchanged drug and bile (up to 20%). Plasma half-life: Approx 1 hr.
