There is one exact (name or code) match for sulbactam

 
Sulbactam is a β-lactamase inhibitor given in combination with β-lactam antibiotics to inhibit β-lactamase, an enzyme produced by bacteria that destroys the antibiotics. Sulbactam in combination with semisynthetic antibiotic ampicillin sodium is indicated for the treatment of infections due to susceptible strains of the designated microorganisms: Skin and Skin Structure Infections caused by beta-lactamase producing strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli etc; Intra-Abdominal Infections caused by beta-lactamase producing strains of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp. (including K. Pneumoniae) tec; Gynecological Infections caused by beta-lactamase producing strains of Escherichia coli, and Bacteroides spp. (including B. fragilis).

Ampicillin is a penicillin beta-lactam antibiotic. The following gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria have been shown in in vitro studies to be susceptible to ampicillin: Hemolytic and nonhemolytic streptococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Nonpenicillinase-producing staphylococci, Clostridium spp., B. anthracis, Listeria monocytogenes, most strains of enterococci, H. influenzae, N. gonorrhoeae, N. meningitidis, Proteus mirabilis, many strains of Salmonella, Shigella, and E. coli. Ampicillin is indicated in the treatment of bacterial meningitis, septicemia, endocarditis, urinary tract, gastrointestinal, respiratory tract infections caused by susceptible strains of the designated organisms.

Brobactam is a synthetic inhibitor of beta-lactamases produced by both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Brobactam potentiates the antibacterial activity of ampicillin against a wide range of clinically important bacterial strains which produce beta-lactamase. No resistant sub-population was observed amongst the strain s of staphylococci studied, and the development of resistance in vitro was not recorded in individual strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli exposed to subinhibitory concentrations of ampicillin/brobactam. Reduced sensitivity was observed in the case of one strain of M. morganii, which was known to produce an inducible chromosomal cephalosporinase.

6-amino-penicillanic acid is a common parent amine of various penicillins. 6-amino-penicillinic acid possesses definite antibacterial properties but these are much lower order than these of benzylpenicillin. It is destroyed by penicillinase (Beta-lactamase). The first penicillins to appear as derivatives of 6-APA were in fact phenethicillin and propicillin.
Sultamicillin is the mutual prodrug of sulbactam and ampicillin. It is the tosylate salt of the double ester of sulbactam plus ampicillin. Sulbactam is a semisynthetic ß-lactamase inhibitor which, in combination with ampicillin, extends the antibacterial activity of the latter to include some ß-lactamase-producing strains of bacteria that would otherwise be resistant. The combination of sulbactam plus ampicillin for parenteral use has previously been shown to be clinically and bacteriologically effective in a variety of infections. Sultamicillin is marketed under a trade name Unasyn among others.
