Trusyn P Tablet

Introduction

Trusyn P is a prescription medication that combines the active ingredients Amoxicillin, Cloxacillin, and Probenecid. It is available under the brand name Trusyn P. This medication is primarily used to treat bacterial infections.

Uses

Trusyn P is prescribed for a variety of bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections, and bone and joint infections. It is effective against a wide range of bacteria, including those that are resistant to other types of antibiotics.

Dosage and Administration

The dosage of Trusyn P will depend on the specific infection being treated, as well as the patient’s age, weight, and overall health. Follow the instructions provided by your healthcare professional. The tablets should be taken with food to enhance absorption.

Mechanism of Action

Trusyn P contains Amoxicillin and Cloxacillin, which are both penicillin-type antibiotics. These antibiotics work by inhibiting the growth of bacteria and preventing them from forming cell walls, ultimately leading to their destruction. Probenecid, the third active ingredient, helps increase the concentration of the other antibiotics in the body by reducing their elimination through the kidneys.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and skin rash. Consult your healthcare professional if these side effects persist or worsen. In rare cases, serious side effects such as allergic reactions, liver problems, and blood disorders may occur. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any unusual symptoms.

Drug Interactions

Trusyn P may interact with other medications, including certain antibiotics, anticoagulants, and oral contraceptives. Inform your healthcare professional about all the medications you are currently taking to avoid potential drug interactions. They will be able to advise you on the appropriate management of these interactions.

Precautions

Before using Trusyn P, inform your healthcare professional if you have any known allergies to penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotics. Disclose your medical history, especially if you have liver or kidney problems. This medication may not be suitable for everyone, and your healthcare professional will determine if it is safe for you to use.
