Teicoplanin

Description:
Teicoplanin is a glycopeptide antibiotic primarily used to treat serious infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, particularly those resistant to other antibiotics, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). It is derived from the fermentation of the actinobacterium Actinoplanes teichomyceticus. Teicoplanin works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, specifically targeting the D-alanyl-D-alanine portion of the peptidoglycan precursor, which is crucial for bacterial cell wall integrity. This mechanism leads to cell lysis and death of the bacteria. Teicoplanin is typically administered intravenously or intramuscularly and has a long half-life, allowing for less frequent dosing. It is known for its favorable pharmacokinetic profile, including good tissue penetration and a low incidence of nephrotoxicity compared to other antibiotics. Common side effects may include hypersensitivity reactions, gastrointestinal disturbances, and, in rare cases, hematological abnormalities. Due to its effectiveness against resistant strains, teicoplanin is an important option in the antibiotic arsenal, particularly in hospital settings.
