Description

Fosfomycin tromethamine (MK-0955 tromethamine) is a blood-brain barrier penetrating, broad-spectrum antibiotic by irreversibly inhibiting an early stage in cell wall synthesis. Fosfomycin tromethamine shows both in vivo and in vitro activity against a wide range of bacteria, including multidrug-resistant (MDR), extensively drug-resistant (XDR), and pan-drug-resistant (PDR) bacteria[1].


An antibiotic produced by Streptomyces fradiae.

Drug Function and Efficacy

It has antibacterial effects on gram-positive cocci such as Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis. It also has strong antibacterial activity against gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Serratia, Shigella, Yersinia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter aerogenes, Vibrio and Aeromonas. Fosfomycin can inhibit the early synthesis of bacterial cell walls. Its molecular structure is similar to phosphoenolpyruvate, so it can compete with bacteria for the same transferase, inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis and leading to bacterial death.

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)
