Synopsis:Fusidic acid is a kind of fusulinic acid antibiotic with steroidal skeleton. Its chemical structure is similar to that of cephalosporin P, but not a hormone. It is produced by fusidium coccineum or some Cephalosporium spp in fungi. Its antibacterial spectrum is narrow, similar to that of neomycin. It has obvious effect on Bacteroides fragilis, Streptococcus, streptococcus, Streptococcus, Streptococcus, Streptococcus, Streptococcus, Streptococcus The effect of Streptococcus pneumoniae is weak. Its mechanism of action is to inhibit the protein synthesis of bacteria and play an antibacterial or bactericidal role. In vitro, staphylococcus is easy to develop drug resistance to this product, and there is no cross resistance between bacteria and other anti infective drugs. Clinically, fusidic acid is used for osteomyelitis or skin and soft tissue infection caused by sensitive bacteria. It can also be used for other deep infection, such as sepsis, pneumonia, endocarditis, etc.
