Frequently asked Questions about Sitrocin 100 Injection

Question over 4 years ago

Does Sitrocin cover pseudomonas?

Dr. Sameer Awadhiya MBBS , Pediatrics

Yes, Sitrocin is effective against bacteria (Pseudomonas). But it is also found that Pseudomonas can get resistant to this drug and in that case Sitrocin will not produce desired results. If you are experiencing no symptomatic relief after taking this medicine then inform your doctor and follow his/her instructions.

Question almost 5 years ago

Can I take Sitrocin with penicillin?

Dr. Braj Bhushan Ojha BAMS , Gastroenterology, Dermatology, Psychiatry, Ayurveda, Sexology, Diabetology

No, Sitrocin cannot be taken with penicillin. Because penicillin inactivates the Sitrocin by combining the beta-lactam ring of penicillin with an amino group of this drug to form amide which is biologically inactive. For this reason Sitrocin should not be taken with penicillin. The chances of inactivation of this drug are higher in case of renal failure because in this case concentration of penicillin is higher in the kidney for a longer time as compared to the normal renal function.
