Gentomycin Sulfate and Bismuth Carbonate Capsules

Function and Efficacy

It has good effects on spores, Shigella, Enterobacter, Serratia and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Neisseria and Haemophilus influenzae are moderately sensitive to this product. It also has certain effects on Brucella, Yersinia pestis, Acinetobacter and Campylobacter fetus. It has good antibacterial effects on about 80% of methicillin-sensitive strains of Staphylococcus (including Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative Staphylococci), but most methicillin-resistant strains are resistant to this product. It has poor effects on Streptococcus and Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Enterococcus is mostly resistant to this product. When this product is used in combination with β-lactams, most of them can obtain synergistic antibacterial effects. Its mechanism of action is to bind to the 30S subunit of the bacterial ribosome and inhibit the synthesis of bacterial proteins. In recent years, the number of Gram-negative bacteria resistant to gentamicin has increased significantly. Bismuth subcarbonate can play a protective antacid and astringent role in the gastrointestinal mucosa, and can achieve an antidiarrheal effect by reducing intestinal irritation, preventing excessive dehydration and water-salt metabolism disorders in the body.

Ingredients
