Description
(extracted from source data)
DESCRIPTION
Bacitracin A is a polypeptide antibacterial with activity against Gram-positive bacteria. It is the major component of bacitracin , a mixture of at least nine closely-related cyclic polypeptides produced by Bacillus licheniformis and Bacillus subtilis.
(GtoPdb)
INDICATION
For the treatment of infants with pneumonia and empyema caused by staphylococci shown to be susceptible to the drug. Also used in ointment form for topical treatment of a variety of localized skin and eye infections, as well as for the prevention of wound infections. Used against gram positive bacteria. Bacitracin is also used as an inhibitor of proteases and other enzymes. ; However, specific activity of bactracin's inhibition of protein disulfide isomerase has been called into question.
