InjectionClinical Overview
Ampicillin is a broad-spectrum aminopenicillin antibiotic that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), causing cell lysis in susceptible Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. Indicated for respiratory tract infections, listeriosis, bacterial meningitis, enterococcal infections, urinary tract infections, and Salmonella infections.

Ampicillin 250mg + Cloxacillin 250mg Capsules
Ampicillin and Cloxacillin combination (often termed Ampiclox) provides dual bactericidal action against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens, including penicillinase-producing Staphylococci. Ampicillin targets sensitive streptococci, enterococci, and Gram-negative bacilli, while cloxacillin resists destruction by staphylococcal beta-lactamases. Indicated for respiratory tract infections, puerperal sepsis, wound infections, and post-surgical prophylaxis.
Ampicillin 250mg + Di-Cloxacillin 250mg Capsules
Ampicillin and Cloxacillin combination (often termed Ampiclox) provides dual bactericidal action against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens, including penicillinase-producing Staphylococci.
