Sulbactam 1mg injection is an irreversible inhibitor of β-lactamase. It binds with the penicillin-binding proteins (PBP) of specific bacterial species exhibiting direct antimicrobial activity.

Inform your physician about all the prescribed medicine, over-the-counter medications, nutritional or vitamin supplements, and herbal supplements you have taken before. Certain medications may interact with Sulbamed 1mg injection and cause undesirable side effects. Tell your doctor if you are receiving probenecid because probenecid decreases the excretion of Sulbamed 1mg injection.

• Store between 20°C to 25°C.
• Avoid exposure to heat, light, and moisture.
• It should be kept away from children and pets.

Sulbamed 1mg injection is available as an injection and administered intravenously (into a vein) or intramuscularly (into a muscle) by the healthcare provider. The dosage and frequency of the injection injection administration are determined depending on the severity of your disease and other considerations by the healthcare provider. It is crucial to adhere to their scheduled appointments for safe and effective treatment.

Side effects are unwanted symptoms caused by medicines. Even though all medicines cause side effects, not everyone gets them. 

Serious:

• Severe allergic reactions (rashes, itching, difficulty in breathing, fever)

Common:

• Injection site pain (which is usually minimized by diluting with local anesthesia by the physician)
• Thrombophlebitis (inflammation of the vein)
• Diarrhoea

Serious and fatal hypersensitivity (allergic reaction) will occur if you are allergic to beta-lactam antibiotics. Hence, inform your doctor if you get any symptoms of allergic reactions, like rashes, itching, or difficulty breathing. Sulbamed 1mg injection is prescribed when you have proven or strongly suspected bacterial infection; otherwise, you may have the risk of developing drug-resistant bacteria. Take the injection exactly as directed. If you miss any doses, the efficiency of the treatment could be compromised, and there is a greater chance that the bacteria will become resistant to Sulbamed 1mg injection and other antibacterial medications.

Overdosage of this medication may cause neurological adverse reactions, including convulsions (fits). The dosage and frequency of the injection differ from those of adults in elderly patients due to their poor renal function and, hence, require close monitoring. You could ensure a secure and effective treatment experience with this medication by following these safety measures and discussing any concerns with your healthcare professional.
