Dactinomycin. Cosmegen . Cosmegen Lyovac . Lyovac-Cosmegen . Lyovac Cosmegen . Lyovac, Cosmegen . LyovacCosmegen . Actinomycin D . Meractinomycin . Actinomycin . A compound composed of a two CYCLIC PEPTIDES attached to a phenoxazine that is derived from STREPTOMYCES parvullus. It binds to DNA and inhibits RNA synthesis (transcription), with chain elongation more sensitive than initiation, termination, or release. As a result of impaired mRNA production, protein synthesis also declines after dactinomycin therapy. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1993, p2015) . 1.00
Spectinomycin. Adspec . Ferkel Spectam . Kempi . Prospec . Salmosan-T . Spectam . Spectinomycin Dihydrochloride, Anhydrous . Spectinomycin Dihydrochloride, Pentahydrate . Spectinomycin Hydrochloride . Stanilo . Trobicin . Anhydrous Spectinomycin Dihydrochloride . Salmosan T . Spectam, Ferkel . Actinospectacin . An antibiotic produced by Streptomyces spectabilis. It is active against gram-negative bacteria and used for the treatment of GONORRHEA. . 0.56
Viomycin. Celiomycin . Vinactane . Viocin . Viomicin . Viomycins . Florimycin . Tuberactinomycin B . A strongly basic peptide, antibiotic complex from several strains of Streptomyces. It is allergenic and toxic to kidneys and the labyrinth. Viomycin is used in tuberculosis as several different salts and in combination with other agents. . 0.54
Enviomycin. Tuberactinomycin-N . Tuberactinomycin N . Cyclic basic peptide related to VIOMYCIN. It is isolated from an induced mutant of Streptomyces griseoverticillatus var. tuberacticus and acts as an antitubercular agent with less ototoxicity than tuberactinomycin. . 0.54
Actinomyces. A genus of gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria whose organisms are nonmotile. Filaments that may be present in certain species are either straight or wavy and may have swollen or clubbed heads. . 0.48
