Tazocin
How does it work?
Tazocin injection contains two active ingredients, piperacillin, which is a penicillin-type antibiotic, and tazobactam, which is a medicine that prevents bacteria from inactivating piperacillin. The injection is used to treat infections with bacteria.

Piperacillin is an antibiotic that has the ability to kill a wide variety of bacteria. It works by interfering with the formation of bacterial cell walls. It does this by preventing the bacteria forming vital cross-links within their cell walls. These cross-links strengthen the cell walls and allow them to protect the bacteria from their environment. By interfering with the cross-linking meshwork in the cell walls, piperacillin weakens them.

The cell walls of bacteria are essential for their survival. They protect the bacteria from the environment and keep unwanted substances from entering the cells. As piperacillin weakens the cell walls, it allows unwanted substances to enter the bacterial cells. This causes the cells to swell and eventually rupture, and kills the bacteria.

Certain bacteria are resistant to penicillin-type antibiotics, because they have developed the ability to produce defensive chemicals. These chemicals are called beta-lactamases. They interfere with the structure of penicillin-type antibiotics and stop them from working.

Tazobactam is a type of medicine known as a beta-lactamase inhibitor. It is included in this medicine because it inhibits the action of the beta-lactamases produced by in defence by certain bacteria. This prevents the bacteria from inactivating the piperacillin, and leaves them susceptible to attack. Tazobactam therefore increases the range of bacteria that piperacillin can kill.

Tazocin is given by injection or infusion (drip) into a vein. It is used to treat severe infections, including those caused by multiple organisms.

To make sure the bacteria causing an infection are susceptible to Tazocin, your doctor may take a tissue sample, for example a swab from the throat or skin, or a urine or blood sample, so that the infecting bacteria can be identified. However, due to its broad spectum of activity, this antibiotic can also be useful for starting treatment for severe infections before the results of microscopy and culture are known.

-------------------------------------------------------------

What is it used for?
In adults and children over 12 years of age:
Bacterial infections of the lungs and airways (chest or lower respiratory tract infections)
Bacterial infections within the abdomen
Bacterial infections of the urinary tract
Bacterial infections of the skin
Bacterial infections of the blood (septicaemia or blood poisoning)
Bacterial infections in people with low white blood cell counts (neutropenia) and hence decreased ability to fight infection (used in combination with an aminoglycoside antibiotic for this purpose)

In children under 12 years of age:
Appendicitis complicated by a burst appendix, peritonitis and/or abcess formation in children aged 2 to 12 years
Bacterial infections in children with low white blood cell counts (neutropenia) and hence decreased ability to fight infection (used in combination with an aminoglycoside antibiotic for this purpose)

-------------------------------------------------------------

Warning!
During long-term treatment, your doctor may want to take routine blood tests to monitor your kidney function, liver function, levels of blood cells and levels of salts such as sodium and potassium in your blood.
Broad-spectrum antibiotics can sometimes cause inflammation of the bowel (colitis). For this reason, if you get diarrhoea either during or after taking this medicine, particularly if it becomes severe or persistent, or contains blood or mucus, you should tell your doctor immediately.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Use with caution in
Decreased kidney function
Kidney failure
History of allergies
Low sodium diet
Low blood potassium levels (hypokalaemia)

-------------------------------------------------------------

Not to be used in
Allergy to penicillin or cephalosporin type antibiotics
Allergy to beta-lactamase inhibitors
This medicine should not be used if you are allergic to one or any of its ingredients. Please inform your doctor or pharmacist if you have previously experienced such an allergy.

If you feel you have experienced an allergic reaction, stop using this medicine and inform your doctor or pharmacist immediately.

It is important to tell your doctor or pharmacist what medicines you are already taking, including those bought without a prescription and herbal medicines, before you start treatment with this medicine, so they can check that the combination is safe.

Penicillins such as piperacillin may decrease the removal of methotrexate from the body, increasing the risk of its side effects. Your doctor may want to monitor the amount of methotrexate in your blood if you are receiving methotrexate treatment in combination with this medicine.

This medicine may alter the anti-blood-clotting effects of anticoagulant medicines such as warfarin. Your doctor may want to monitor your blood clotting time more frequently if you are receiving anticoagulant treatment in combination with this medicine.
