COMPOSITION
Tylosin (sf. artrate) : 100 %
PHARMACEUTICAL PROPERTIES
Tylosin is an antibiotic of the macrolide family with a high activity especially on gram-positive germs and mycoplasma. Tylosin is obtained by culturing a strain of Streptomyces fradiae. It is a bacteriostatic antibiotic. Its mode of action is the inhibition of bacterial protein synthesis.
Tylosin is stable in an acidic medium and is well absorbed through the digestive tract and diffuses widely into the various target tissues: lung, kidney, liver and skin. Tylosin is eliminated mainly via the kidney and biliary tract. In addition, tylosin tartrate is highly soluble in water.
