Composition
>of 1 g of liniment contains: Active ingredient: Sodium sulfonamide (soluble streptocide) — 0.05 g (in terms of 100% substance); Excipients: Glycerol (distilled glycerin) – 0.30 g, Emulsifier No. 1 (Lanette® SX) – 0.080 g, Water (purified water) – up to 1 g
Pharmacological action
Streptocide is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent. Sulfonamide (streptocide) is one of the first representatives of the sulfonamide group of chemotherapeutic agents.
It has a bacteriostatic effect. The mechanism of action is determined by competitive antagonism with PABA and competitive inhibition of the enzyme dihydropteroate synthetase.
This leads to a violation of the synthesis of dihydrofolic acid, and then tetrahydrofolic acid, and as a result – to a violation of the synthesis of nucleic acids.
Sulfonamide is active against gram-positive and Gram-negative cocci, Escherichia coli, Shigella spp., Vibrio cholerae, Haemophilus influenzae, Clostridium spp., Bacillus anthracis, Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Yersinia pestis, as well as against Chlamydia spp., Actinomyces spp., Toxoplasma gondii.
