WHAT PIPERACILLIN/TAZOBACTAM IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Piperacillin belongs to the group of medicines known as
“broad-spectrum penicillin antibiotics”. It can
kill many kinds of bacteria. Tazobactam can prevent some resistant
bacteria from surviving the effects
of piperacillin. This means that when piperacillin and tazobactam are
given together, more types of
bacteria are killed.
Piperacillin/Tazobactam is used in adults and adolescents to treat
bacterial infections, such as those
affecting the lower respiratory tract (lungs), urinary tract (kidneys
and bladder), abdomen, skin or
blood. Piperacillin/Tazobactam may be used to treat bacterial
infections in patients with low white
blood cell counts (reduced
