About Produg Tablet

Produg Tablet belongs to the group of medications called ‘antibiotics’ used to treat bacterial infections. Bacterial infections are caused by the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Symptoms of bacterial infection vary depending on the organ affected by bacteria.

Produg Tablet contains Ampicillin and Sulbactam. Ampicillin is a penicillin antibiotic. It has bactericidal action (kills bacteria). It works by preventing the formation of the cell wall (the outer protective layer of bacteria, which is essential for its survival) by preventing protein synthesis. Sulbactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. It broadens the spectrum of antibacterial activity by inhibiting the action of beta-lactamase, an enzyme produced by bacteria that can destroy antibiotics. Produg Tablet is recommended for only bacterial infections and doesn’t treat viral infections.

Take this medicine exactly as prescribed by the doctor. The common side effects of Produg Tablet are nausea, vomiting, headache, stomach pain and diarrhoea. These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, if any of these side effects persist or get worse, inform your doctor immediately.

It is not recommended to take Produg Tablet if you are allergic to penicillin, any other antibiotics, or the contents of Produg Tablet . Produg Tablet should not be given to people with infectious mononucleosis (viral infection with a sore throat and fever) and colitis (inflammation of the intestine). It should be used with caution in patients with kidney impairment. Do not discontinue or abruptly stop the medication, as it may lead to antibiotic resistance, a condition in which bacteria become resistant to antibiotics. Produg Tablet should be used with caution in children, pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers and elderly people. It is not known whether Produg Tablet can interact with alcohol or may affect your ability to drive. So, please discuss with your doctor the possible risks and benefits before taking this medicine.

Medicinal Benefits

Produg Tablet contains Ampicillin and Sulbactam. Ampicillin is a penicillin antibiotic that treats the infection by killing the bacteria. Sulbactam is a beta-lactamase (an enzyme produced by bacteria that can destroy antibiotics) inhibitor and prevents the destruction of ampicillin from the bacteria. Produg Tablet has broad-spectrum activity and is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It is used to treat bacterial infections such as skin infections, gynaecological infections and intra-abdominal infections.

Drug Warnings

If you notice watery and bloody stools with or without stomach cramps and fever, inform your doctor immediately as Produg Tablet may cause diarrhoea, like many antibiotics. This condition usually resolves after the discontinuation of treatment. However, some patients may experience this condition even after two or more months after the antibiotic treatment. In addition, the severity of diarrhoea may range from mild conditions to severe colitis (inflammation of the intestine). Do not discontinue or abruptly stop the medication, as it may lead to antibiotic resistance, a condition in which bacteria become resistant to antibiotics. Produg Tablet should not be used in patients with mononucleosis (viral infection with a sore throat and fever), as this medicine causes a skin rash. Produg Tablet may cause superinfection (an additional infection that occurs with other microbes) on prolonged use. So, please do not use it for longer periods than your doctor intended.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Probiotics should be taken after taking the full course of Produg Tablet to restore some healthy bacteria in the intestines that may have been killed. Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, kombucha and kimchi can help restore the intestine's good bacteria.
  • Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet, as it can be easily digested by gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth. Thus, fibre-rich foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics. Whole grains like whole-grain bread and brown rice should be included in your diet.
  • Avoid alcoholic beverages as they can make you dehydrated and may affect your sleep.  This can make it harder for your body to aid the antibiotic in fighting off infections.

FAQs

Produg Tablet is used to treat bacterial infections.

Produg Tablet contains Ampicillin and Sulbactam. Ampicillin reduces the infection by inhibiting bacterial growth. It disrupts the formation of the cell wall (outer layer), which is essential for bacteria's survival. Sulbactam inhibits the action of beta-lactamase, an enzyme produced by bacteria to destroy antibiotics (ampicillin).

People allergic to penicillin should not take Produg Tablet as they may develop cross-sensitivity (sensitivity to drugs with similar structures). Produg Tablet contains ampicillin, which has a similar structure to that of penicillin.

You are recommended to avoid taking Produg Tablet if you have infectious mononucleosis (viral infection with a sore throat and fever) and colitis (inflammation of the intestine), as Produg Tablet worsens these conditions.
