ACTIONS AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Ampicillin has a broad spectrum of bactericidal activity against many
gram-positive and gram-
negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. It acts through the
inhibition of cell wall mucopeptide
biosynthesis during the stage of active multiplication.
INDICATIONS AND CLINICAL USE
The treatment of infections due to susceptible gram negative organisms
(including strains of
shigellae, _S. typhosa_ and other salmonellae, _E. coli, H.
influenzae_, and _P. mirabilis_) and
susceptible gram positive organisms (including streptococci,
pneumococci, and non-beta-
lactamase (penicillinase) producing staphylococci).
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the
effectiveness of
Ampicillin Sodium for Injection BP and other antibacterial drugs,
Ampicillin Sodium for
Injection BP should be used only to treat infections that are proven
or strongly suspected to be
caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility
information are available, they
should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy.
In the absence of such data,
local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the
empiric selection of therapy.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
A history of allergic reactions to penicillin or cephalosporins.
WARNINGS
Before therapy, inquiry as to past penicillin or other allergies is
essential as reactions occur more
frequently in hypersensitive persons. During therapy, if allergic or
anaphylactic reactions occur,
discontinue
tre
