Flomecol
Topical ointment
Specification
Flomecol has antibacterial, regeneration and anti-inflammatory
effects.
Florfenicol is a synthetic antibiotic, thiamphenicol derivative, where
hydroxyl groups are substituted by fluorine atoms.
Florfenicol has a bacteriostatic effect on gram-positive and gramnegative bacteria, Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp., Escherichia
coli, Salmonella spp., Pasteurella multocida, Haemophilus spp., Proteus spp.,
Enterobacter spp., Klebsiella spp., Bordetella spp. and Mycoplasma spp.
The antibiotic is effective against bacteria producing acetyltransferase.
Florfenicol binds to the 50S ribosomal subunit in the bacterial
protoplasm, where the antibiotic blocks the enzyme peptidyl
transferase, which leads to the inhibition of protein synthesis.
Methyluracil is a pyrimidine derivative. It normalizes nucleic
acid metabolism and stimulates cellular regeneration in wounds, accelerates the growth and granulation maturation of tissues and
epithelization.
The drug has no local irritant effect.
