Medicine information
Uses & overview
Sultamicillin 375 mg is a prescription antibiotic used to treat selected bacterial infections caused by microorganisms that are susceptible to its ingredients. It belongs to the penicillin class of antibiotics and works through the combined action of ampicillin and sulbactam. Ampicillin helps kill susceptible bacteria by interfering with bacterial cell-wall formation, while sulbactam inhibits certain beta-lactamase enzymes that can make bacteria resistant to some antibiotics. Doctors may prescribe Sultamicillin 375 mg tablets for specific infections involving the ears, nose, throat, respiratory tract, urinary tract, skin, and soft tissues. Its suitability depends on the type of infection, the bacteria involved, the patient's medical history, and the prescriber's assessment. It is not effective against viral illnesses such as influenza or the common cold.
