Quinopristin/dalfopristin
It is a macrolide antibiotic.
Action:
Dalfopristin binds to 23S portion of 50S ribosomal subunit and Quinopristin binds to a nearby site of 50S ribosomal subunit and in this way they causes the inhibition of protein synthesis.
Uses:It is used for the treatment of Staphylococcal infections and infections caused by Enterococcus faecium.
