MODE OF ACTION
Erotrim® Plus Powder (Erythromycin INN 180 mg+ Sulphadiazine USP 150 mg+ Trimethoprim USP 30 mg) is a water-soluble antibiotic powder containing a combination of three potent anti-bacterial agents. Erythromycin is a macrolide antibiotic, highly effective against gram positive bacteria and Mycoplasma. It is also effective against some gram-negative bacteria such as Nessaria spp. Erythromycin works by binding with 50s ribosomal subunit, consequently inhibiting protein synthesis of bacteria. Sulphadiazine inhibits biosynthesis of PABA to dihydrosulphonic acid & Trimethoprim inhibits the biosynthesis of tetrahydrofolic acid from dihydrofolic acid.
