Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Tazobactam is a β-lactamase inhibitor. Tazobactam inhibits the action of bacterial β-lactamases, especially those belonging to the SHV-1 and TEM groups. It is commonly used as its sodium salt, tazobactam sodium. Tazobactam is combined with the extended spectrum β-lactam antibiotic piperacillin in the drug piperacillin/tazobactam, one of the preferred antibiotic treatments for nosocomial pneumonia caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.[medical citation needed] Tazobactam broadens the spectrum of piperacillin by making it effective against organisms that express β-lactamase and would normally degrade piperacillin. Tazobactam is derived from the penicillin nucleus and is a penicillinic acid sulfone.
