Medical Description

BD Ampho Dry powder for injection is an antifungal medicine used for serious fungal infections and visceral leishmaniasis, also called kala-azar. It contains liposomal amphotericin B, a formulation that carries amphotericin B in tiny fat-like particles. Amphotericin B attaches to the fungal cell membrane and makes it leaky, so essential contents escape and the fungus dies. BD Ampho injection is prepared and given as an infusion into a vein by a doctor or nurse in a hospital or specialist clinic, with close monitoring during treatment.

Uses

  • Serious fungal infections: Severe fungal disease can spread or affect vital organs; this hospital-administered treatment helps clear the infection when specialist care is needed.
  • Visceral leishmaniasis: This parasitic illness can affect internal organs and cause prolonged fever or weakness; treatment helps eliminate the parasite under specialist supervision.

Contraindications

If you are allergic to any ingredient of this medicine or amphotericin B, do not receive it. Tell your doctor before treatment if you have kidney disease, low potassium or magnesium, heart disease, or a previous serious reaction to amphotericin B. Your treatment may require close blood and kidney monitoring.

Your illness or an infusion reaction may make driving unsafe. Drive only when you are fully alert and your doctor permits it.

Dosage

Overdose

This medicine is administered under supervision, so an overdose is unlikely. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it is time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

The active medicine, amphotericin B, attaches to the fungal cell membrane and creates leaks. Important contents then escape, which kills the fungus. The liposomal formulation carries amphotericin B in small fat-like particles for infusion into the bloodstream.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way BD Ampho injection works. Tell your doctor about all the medicines, vitamins and supplements you take. In particular, mention medicines used to treat cancer, high blood pressure, heart conditions, infections, pain, muscle relaxation, inflammation or immune conditions. These combinations may increase kidney or electrolyte problems, alter blood pressure or heart rhythm, or change the effect of the other medicine.

Interactions with food items

No specific food interaction is known. Follow the healthcare team's advice about food and fluids during treatment.
