Pharmacological properties

Ампіциліну Тригідрат has a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity. It is active against Gram-positive microorganisms (Streptococcus spp., including S. pneumoniae, Enterococcus spp., etc.) and a number of Gram-negative microorganisms (Neisseria meningitidis, N. gonorrhoeae, Escherichia coli, Shigella spp., Salmonella spp., Proteus spp., Bordetella pertussis, some strains of Haemophilus influenzae, etc.). The drug is destroyed by penicillinase and therefore is not effective against penicillinase-producing strains of microbes (e.g., Staphylococcus spp.).
