Sumycin
Sumycin is a broad-spectrum polyketide antibiotic used against many bacterial infections.
Drug Uses

Sumycin is commonly used to treat acne today but may also be used to cure other conditions as indicated by your doctor.

Usage

Sumycin should be taken as directed by your doctor. It is recommended that you take it with a glass of water. However, certain antacids are known to interrupt the absorption of the drugs and hence must be avoided for a period of 3 to 4 hours before and after Sumycin.

Missed Dose

If you skip doses or do not complete the full course of therapy, you may risk a decrease in the effectiveness of the immediate treatment. If you miss a dose take it as soon as you remember. However if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the Missed Dose and continue your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

Storage

Store Sumycin at room temperature between 68 – 77 °F (20 – 25 °C) away from direct exposure to heat and light.

Overdose

If you suspect a Sumycin overdose then seek medical attention immediately.

More Information

Sumycin is known to cause drowsiness or dizziness and these effects get enhanced when combined with alcohol. So avoid alcohol while taking the drug.
