Tivalosin

 Properties: 

Tivalosin is a macrolide antibiotic. Macrolide are metabolites or derivatives of

metabolites of soil organisms obtained by fermentation.

They interfere with protein synthesis by reversibly binding to the 50 S ribosome

subunit.

They are generally considered bacteriostatic.

Tivalosin has activity against pathogenic organisms isolated from a range of animal

species mainly Gram-positive organisms and mycoplasma but also some Gram-negative

organisms.

Tivalosin has activity against Mycoplasma gallisepticumin chickens.

Macrolide (including Tivalosin) have been shown to have effects on the innate immune

system, which may augment the direct effects of the antibiotic on the pathogen and aid

the clinical situation.
