Disclaimer Notice:

Dear Readers! I started this blog when my daughter was in the NICU. She had ventriculitis. Her CSF report grew E.coli. But, she was injected Teicoplanin directly into her brain. The doctors made two errors here:

Teicoplanin is for gram-positive bacteria only. It does not treat E.coli.
Teicoplanin is not for intraventricular use. The manufacturer strongly discourage injecting Teicoplanin into the brain.

My daughter bled into the brain. She lived for another two years and ultimately died.

PyloriPac (Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, and Clarithromycin) - Use, Dose

PyloriPac is a pill containing Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, and Clarithromycin. It is used as a single tablet twice daily for 10 to 14 days to treat patients with gastro-duodenal ulcers caused by H. Pylori infection.

Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, and Clarithromycin (PyloriPac) Use:

Helicobacter pylori eradication:
- Used for eradication of H. pylori infection for reduction of the risk of recurrent duodenal ulcer in patients with an active or 1-year history of duodenal ulcer

Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, and Clarithromycin (PyloriPac) Dose in Adults:

Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, and Clarithromycin (PyloriPac) Dose in the treatment of H. pylori eradication: Oral:

Lansoprazole 30 mg, amoxicillin 1 g, and clarithromycin 500 mg administered together in BD dose for a period of 10 or 14 days.

Note: Use of clarithromycin triple therapy should be avoided in patients with risk of macrolide resistance (eg, prior macrolide use, local clarithromycin resistance rates ≥15%, eradication rates with clarithromycin-based regimens ≤85%).

Use in Children:

Not indicated.

Pregnancy Risk Factor C

You can contact individual agents.

Use of clarithromycin, amoxicillin, lansoprazole during breastfeeding

The manufacturer’s labeling has recommended reducing the dose for amoxicillin and clarithromycin in patients with renal impairment (see individual agents).
ESRD on dialysis: As per the manufacturer’s labeling it is not recommended for use although according to one study it was successfully used as 14-day triple therapy regimen by reducing the dose of amoxicillin and clarithromycin to 50% in patients with CrCl <30 mL/minutes, including patients on hemodialysis.

Dose in Liver disease:

No dosage adjustments are provided in the manufacturer’s labeling.

Canadian labeling: Additional contraindications not in US labeling

Low levels of potassium
Infectious mononucleosis suspected or confirmed
Concurrent use of midazolam (oral), ticagrelor, ranolazine (not available in Canada), rilpivirine, saquinavir/ritonavir, or colchicine
Renal impairment and severe liver failure are both possible

Warnings and precautions

Modified cardiac conduction
- Macrolides have been linked to prolongation of QTc interval, and cases of ventricular arrhythmias that are very rare (including torsades-de-pointes).
- Patients at high risk for prolonged cardiac repolarization should be used with caution
- Patients with hypokalemia/hypomagnesemia should not use it.
Anaphylactoid reactions and hypersensitivity reactions
- Patients receiving penicillin therapy have experienced severe, sometimes fatal hypersensitivity reactions (anaphylactoid).
- Patients with a history or hypersensitivity to beta-lactam or multiple allergen sensitivity or IgE-mediated reactions (eg anaphylaxis and angioedema) are more likely to experience this reaction.
- Asthmatic patients should exercise caution. Clearithromycin has been associated with severe acute reactions.
- These include anaphylaxis and Stevens-Johnson syndromes (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis, TEN, drug rash and eosinophilia with systemic symptoms (DRESS), Henoch-Schonlein purpura, and IgA vasculitis.
Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD), formerly Clostridium, is now Clostridioides
- Patients with persistent diarrhea should be evaluated for CDAD if they are not improving.
- Use the lowest possible dose and the shortest duration of PPI therapy for the condition you are trying to treat.
- Long-term use of clarithromycin or amoxicillin can lead to bacterial or fungal superinfection.
- These can include pseudomembranous and CDAD. It has been shown that CDAD can develop >2 months after antibiotic treatment.
Cutaneous and systemic Lupus Erythematosus
- There have been cases of exacerbation or new-onset of an existing autoimmune disease.
- Most often, cases of cutaneous lupus erythematosus were subacute CLE, which can occur within weeks to years of continuous therapy.
- Systemic lupus is less common and usually occurs in the early to middle ages.
- If you notice any symptoms of CLE/SLE, discontinue use and consult a specialist.
- Most patients experience improvement within 4 to 12 weeks after stopping esomeprazole.
Fractures
- Proton pump inhibitor therapy could increase the incidence of osteoporosis-related fractures of bones in the hip, spine or wrist.
- Patients receiving long-term or high-dose therapy (>1 year) should be monitored.
- Along with vitamin D, calcium and vitamin supplementation, the lowest effective dose should be used for the shortest time.
Hepatic effects
- It has been reported that clarithromycin can cause hepatic dysfunction, which is often reversible.
- This can include elevated liver enzymes, hepatitis (hepatocellular cholestatic), and jaundice.
- Hepatic failure can sometimes be fatal, especially if there is a preexisting severe hepatic condition or if hepatotoxic medication are being taken concurrently.
- You should immediately stop using the product if you experience any signs or symptoms of hepatitis.
Hypomagnesemia:
- Hypomagnesemia is most commonly seen in patients who have used PPI for more than three months. In the majority of cases, hypomagnesemia has been documented (rarely).
- You may experience symptoms or it may not. Seizures, tetany and arrhythmias may occur in more severe cases.
- Serum magnesium concentrations should be obtained before beginning long-term therapy and periodically thereafter, especially if a patient is concomitantly taking other drugs known to cause hypomagnesemia like digoxin & diuretics.
- Supplementation with magnesium may be necessary to correct hypomagnesemia.
- However, discontinuation of lansoprazole may not be possible. It takes approximately 1 week for magnesium levels in the body to return to normal.
Interstitial nephritis:
- Patients on PPIs can develop acute interstitial Nephritis at any stage of therapy. It is usually secondary to an idiopathic hypersensitivity reaction.
- The drug should be stopped immediately if acute interstitial Nephritis occurs.
Vitamin B deficiency:
- Vitamin B malabsorption or subsequent vitamin B deficiencies may develop after prolonged treatment (>=2 years).
- The dosage of the drug is what determines the severity of the condition.
- This association is stronger for women than it is for those younger than 30 years. Treatment discontinuation can lead to a decrease in prevalence.
Coronary artery disease (CAD).
- Clarithromycin should not be given to patients suffering from CAD.
- A post-marketing safety study has shown that patients with stable CAD are at greater risk of death due to clarithromycin short-term use.
- However, clarithromycin was randomized to more smokers.
Gastric cancer:
- Gastric malignancy can still be present despite symptoms.
Gastrointestinal infection (eg, Salmonella, Campylobacter):
- These infections could be more likely if you use PPI.
Hepatic impairment
- Patients with severe hepatic impairment should not take Lansoprazole. A reduction in dosage should be considered.
Infectious mononucleosis
- Patients with infectious mononucleosis have reported a rash after receiving amoxicillin therapy. Amoxicillin-class antibiotics should not be used in this situation.
Myasthenia gravis:
- Clarithromycin should be used with caution in these patients. It can lead to new onset and exacerbation.
Renal impairment
- Avoid use in patients with renal impairment.
