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) . 0.59
Erythromycin Ethylsuccinate. E-Mycin E . EryPed . Erythroped . Eyrthromycin Ethyl Succinate . Pediamycin . Wyamycin E . EMycin E . Ethyl Succinate, Eyrthromycin . Ethylsuccinate, Erythromycin . Succinate, Eyrthromycin Ethyl . Monomycin . A macrolide antibiotic, produced by Streptomyces erythreus. This compound is an ester of erythromycin base and succinic acid. It acts primarily as a bacteriostatic agent. In sensitive organisms, it inhibits protein synthesis by binding to 50S ribosomal subunits. This binding process inhibits peptidyl transferase activity and interferes with translocation of amino acids during translation and assembly of proteins. . 0.56
Bambermycins. Bambermycin . Flavomycin . Flavomycins . Flavophospholipol . Menomycin . Flavophospholipols . Moenomycins . Antibiotic complex obtained from Streptomyces bambergiensis containing mainly Moenomycins A and C. They are used as feed additives and growth promoters for poultry, swine, and cattle. . 0.56
