Description

Fusidic acid sodium salt is a bacteriostatic antibiotic.


Fusidate Sodium is a sodium salt form of fusidic acid, a bacteriostatic antibiotic derived from the fungus Fusidium coccineum and used as a topical medication to treat skin infections.|An antibiotic isolated from the fermentation broth of Fusidium coccineum. (From Merck Index, 11th ed). It acts by inhibiting translocation during protein synthesis.

Drug Information

Substances that inhibit the growth or reproduction of BACTERIA. (See all compounds classified as Anti-Bacterial Agents.)|Compounds which inhibit the synthesis of proteins. They are usually ANTI-BACTERIAL AGENTS or toxins. Mechanism of the action of inhibition includes the interruption of peptide-chain elongation, the blocking the A site of ribosomes, the misreading of the genetic code or the prevention of the attachment of oligosaccharide side chains to glycoproteins. (See all compounds classified as Protein Synthesis Inhibitors.)

Acid, Fusidic

Sodium fusidate Use and Manufacturing

Sodium fusidate is the more water soluble sodium salt of fusidic acid, a steroidal metabolite of Fusidum coccineum which is a potent Gram positive antibiotic. Fusidic acid inhibits protein synthesis in prokaryotes by inhibiting the ribosome-dependent activity of G factor and translocation of peptidyl-tRNA. Fusidic acid also suppresses NO lysis of pancreatic islet cells.

Drug Function and Efficacy

It produces bactericidal effects by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis and has a strong antibacterial effect on a series of Gram-positive bacteria. Staphylococci (including strains resistant to penicillin, methicillin and other antibiotics) are highly sensitive to this product. There is no cross-resistance and cross-allergy with other antibacterial drugs used in clinical practice, and it can be used to treat patients who are contraindicated to other antibiotics. It can be used in combination with a variety of anti-staphylococcal drugs to reduce drug resistance and obtain additive or synergistic effects.

This ingredient has been used in drugs with the following functions (note: it does not mean that the ingredient itself has the following health functions)
