Mechanism of action: blocking of action of peptidyl transferase by binding with 50-S ribosomal subunit, which leads to the inhibition of protein synthesis in bacterial cell. Methyluracil is a pirimidine derivative. Normalizing nucleic acid metabolism, it stimulates cellular regeneration processes in the wound, accelerating the growth and maturation of the granulation tissue and epithelialization. FLOMECOL® is not absorbed from the application surface, does not possess local irritant action.
