Introduction:
Capreomycin sulfate an antibiotic medication that is primarily used for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) infections. It belongs to the class of drugs known as aminoglycosides and is derived from the bacterium Streptomyces capreolus. Capreomycin sulfate is administered parenterally, typically through intramuscular or intravenous injection.
Function:
Capreomycin sulfate works by inhibiting protein synthesis in bacterial cells, specifically targeting the ribosomal subunits responsible for protein production. This action disrupts the growth and replication of TB-causing bacteria, helping to control and eliminate the infection. Capreomycin sulfate is particularly effective against multidrug-resistant strains of TB that are resistant to other antibiotic therapies.
Application:
The primary application of capreomycin sulfate is in the treatment of tuberculosis, especially when other first-line drugs have failed or when the infection is caused by drug-resistant strains. It is often used as part of a combination therapy regimen, along with other antituberculosis drugs, to enhance treatment efficacy and prevent the development of further drug resistance.
