----------
UNASYN
(AMPICILLIN SODIUM/SULBACTAM SODIUM)
TO REDUCE THE DEVELOPMENT OF DRUG-RESISTANT BACTERIA AND MAINTAIN THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF UNASYN AND OTHER ANTIBACTERIAL DRUGS, UNASYN SHOULD
BE
USED ONLY TO TREAT INFECTIONS THAT ARE PROVEN OR STRONGLY SUSPECTED TO
BE
CAUSED BY BACTERIA.
DESCRIPTION
UNASYN is an injectable antibacterial combination consisting of the
semisynthetic
antibacterial ampicillin sodium and the beta-lactamase inhibitor
sulbactam sodium for
intravenous and intramuscular administration.
Ampicillin sodium is derived from the penicillin nucleus,
6-aminopenicillanic acid.
Chemically, it is monosodium (2S, 5R,
6R)-6-[(R)-2-amino-2-phenylacetamido]-3, 3-
dimethyl-7-oxo-4-thia-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0] heptane-2-carboxylate and
has a molecular
weight of 371.39. Its chemical formula is C
H
N NaO S. The structural formula is:
Sulbactam sodium is a derivative of the basic penicillin nucleus.
Chemically, sulbactam
sodium is sodium penicillinate sulfone; sodium (2S,
5R)-3,3-dimethyl-7-oxo-4-thia- 1-
azabicyclo [3.2.0] heptane-2-carboxylate 4,4-dioxide. Its chemical
formula is

UNASYN, ampicillin sodium/sulbactam sodium parenteral combination, is
available as a
white to off-white dry powder for reconstitution. UNASYN dry powder is
freely soluble in
aqueous diluents to yield pale yellow to yellow solutions containing
ampicillin sodium and
sulbactam sodium equivalent to 250 mg ampicillin per mL and 125 mg
sulbactam per
mL. The pH of the solutions is between 8.0 and 10.0.
Dilute solutions (up to 30 mg ampicillin and 15 mg sulbactam per mL)
are essentially
colorless to pale yellow. The pH of dilute solutions remains the same.
1.5 g of UNASYN (1 g ampicillin as the sodium salt plus 0.5 g
sulbactam as the sodium
salt) parenteral contains approximately 115 mg (5 mEq) of sodium.
3 g of UNASYN (2 g ampicillin as the sodium salt plus 1 g
