Drug Function and Efficacy

This product is a macrolide antibiotic produced by Streptomyces (Streptomycesnarbonensisvar.Josamyceticus). Its antibacterial spectrum is similar to that of erythromycin. Its antibacterial effect on Staphylococcus and Streptococcus is slightly worse than that of erythromycin, but it still has antibacterial activity against induced resistant strains. Meningococci and Bordetella pertussis are sensitive to this product. It has good antibacterial effect on anaerobic bacteria such as Peptococcus, Peptostreptococcus, Propionibacterium and Eubacterium. Intracellular pathogens such as Mycoplasma, Chlamydia and Legionella are also sensitive to this product. This product does not induce Staphylococcus to macrolide resistance and is a non-inducible antibiotic.
