Product Description
Many gram-negative bacteria that are resistant to natural or penicillinase-resistant penicillins can be treated with Ampicillin. These bacteria are mainly E. coli, Klebsiella, Haemophilus, and B-lactamase-producing bacteria, and are time-dependent antibiotics. When this drug is introduced into the body, it inhibits the formation of cell walls, causing bacteria to die.
