Unasyn 250mg/5ml Suspension 30ml

Unasyn 250mg/5mL Suspension is a combination penicillin antibiotic containing sultamicillin as its active ingredient. Sultamicillin is an oral compound that is converted in the body into ampicillin (a penicillin antibiotic) and sulbactam (a beta-lactamase inhibitor that helps protect the antibiotic from bacterial resistance). It is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections and is commonly prescribed for children because it is available as an oral suspension. If you are giving this medication to your child or using it yourself for the first time, it is helpful to know that it is reconstituted with water before use and can be taken with or between meals. Some people experience diarrhoea, nausea, or abdominal discomfort during treatment. It is important to complete the full prescribed course, usually 5–14 days, even if symptoms improve earlier, because stopping treatment too soon may allow the infection to return and contribute to antibiotic resistance.

The dose is determined by your doctor based on the type and severity of the infection. Treatment is generally continued for 5–14 days, and in some cases for up to 48 hours after fever has resolved. Children, premature infants, neonates, and patients with reduced kidney function usually require dose adjustment, so always follow your doctor’s prescribed regimen.

Before reconstitution, Unasyn Suspension should be stored below 25°C in a dry place and has a shelf life as indicated on the packaging. Once mixed with water, the suspension should be stored in a refrigerator and used within 14 days.

• Sultamicillin (equivalent to Ampicillin and Sulbactam) – an oral prodrug combining a penicillin antibiotic with a beta-lactamase inhibitor

• Known hypersensitivity to sultamicillin, ampicillin, sulbactam, or other penicillin-class antibiotics
• History of penicillin-associated jaundice or liver dysfunction
• Caution is advised in patients with significant kidney impairment because dose adjustment is usually required
• Use during pregnancy is generally considered acceptable, but should still be confirmed with your doctor
• Caution is advised while breastfeeding because small amounts may pass into breast milk

Probenecid may increase and prolong blood levels of both ampicillin and sulbactam, so this combination should be reviewed by your doctor. Inform your doctor or pharmacist about all medications and supplements being taken. There is no known major interaction with alcohol, but alcohol may worsen gastrointestinal side effects such as diarrhoea, so limiting alcohol during treatment is advisable.
