Coliquinol®
Oral solution
Specification
Coliquinol® is an antibacterial and antiprotozoal drug. The components of Coliquinol® have a synergistic effect on grampositive and gram-negative bacteria, including Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp. (including penicillinase-producing strains), Corynebacterium spp., Clostridium spp., Haemophilus spp., Klebsiella spp., Proteus spp., Salmonella spp., Pasteurella spp., Brucella spp., Shigella spp., Esherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Aerobacter aerogenes, Neiseria gonorrhoeae, and Bacteroides spp., Mycoplasma, large viruses, Coccidia, Toxoplasma, Actinomycetales. The synergistic effect of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim combination inhibits folic acid synthesis in the bacterial cell, which leads to the inhibition of nucleotide synthesis. After oral administration, lincomycin, sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim are absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and distributed to organs and tissues. Colistin is hardly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and has its antimicrobial effect directly in the intestine. Lincomycin and colistin are excreted intact, mainly in the urine and feces, sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim – mainly in the urine.
