Sulbactam sodium-ampicillin sodium (hereinafter referred to as SBT/ABPC) injections are widely used for the treatment of infection and in view of this,we conducted a study to examine the therapeutic equivalence of original and generic preparations of SBT/ABPC.In it,we compared efficacy and safety in patients diagnosed with pneumonia,acute bronchitis,or acute bronchiolitis who received the original or a generic SBT/ABPC injection at the National Organization Kanazawa Medical Center from May 2007 to March 2008.We analyzed the efficacy endpoints of body temperature,white blood cell count,and CRP level and the safety endpoints of AST (GOT),ALT (GPT),and BUN in 121 subjects receiving the original preparation and 112 receiving the generic one.Our results suggest therapeutic equivalence for both efficacy and safety,and we conclude that the generic version can definitely be used as an alternative to the original preparation.
