Per cosa si usa
Come agisce
Antipseudomonal penicillin plus beta-lactamase inhibitor; inhibits biosynthesis of cell wall mucopeptide synthesis by binding to 1 or more of the penicillin-binding proteins and is effective during active-multiplication stage
Dose abituale nell'adulto (sintesi del foglio illustrativo)
Intra-abdominal Infections: 3.375 g IV q6hr (totaling 13.5 g [12 g piperacillin/1.5 g tazobactam]) for 7-10 days
Come si assume di solito
Penicillin antibiotics are taken by mouth or given by injection at regular intervals for a set number of days; the course should be completed even when symptoms improve early.
Gravidanza e allattamento
- Gravidanza
- Safe Both drugs cross the placenta; there are insufficient data to show a risk, and penicillins have long use in pregnancy without evidence of fetal harm. No malformations in rats or mice. Safe to use when indicated.
- Allattamento
- Safe Piperacillin passes into milk in low amounts, not expected to harm the infant; tazobactam is unstudied. LactMed: occasionally diarrhoea or thrush. Acceptable; breastfeeding can continue.
Effetti indesiderati segnalati
- Headache
- Diarrhea
- Nausea
- Insomnia
- Constipation
- Fever
Controindicazioni
- Allergy to penicillins, cephalosporins, imipenem, beta-lactamase inhibitors
Chi deve prestare attenzione
- Prolonged use may result in fungal or bacterial superinfection
- Leukopenia/neutropenia associated with prolonged therapy; periodic assessment of hematopoietic function should be performed,
- Increased frequency of fever and rash reported in patients with cystic fibrosis receiving piperacillin
Anyone who has had an allergic reaction to a penicillin or another beta-lactam antibiotic must tell the prescriber before taking one. Severe or persistent diarrhoea during or after a course needs medical advice.
Informare il farmacista o il medico di gravidanza o allattamento, malattie renali o epatiche, allergie e di ogni altro farmaco o integratore assunto.
