Pharmacological action
Bacteriostatic antibiotic from the macrolide group. When applied externally, it has an antibacterial and anti-acne effect. Reversibly binds to the 50S subunit of ribosomes, which disrupts the formation of peptide bonds between amino acid molecules and blocks the synthesis of microbial proteins (does not affect the synthesis of nucleic acids). When used in high doses, depending on the type of pathogen, it can show a bactericidal effect.
The spectrum of action includes gram-positive (Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp., Bacillus anthracis, Corynebacterium diphtheriae) and gram-negative (Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Haemophilus influenzae, Bordetella pertussis, Brucella spp., Legionella spp. )microorganisms, as well as Mycoplasma spp., Chlamidia spp., Treponema spp., Rickettsia spp.
Gram-negative bacilli Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, as well as Shigella spp., Bacteroides fragilis, Enterobacter spp. are resistant to the drug. Etc.

Possible development of allergic reactions and irritating effect (redness, itching).

Interaction
