Pharmacological action
A broad-spectrum antibiotic, a derivative of phosphonic acid, has a bactericidal effect, the mechanism of which is associated with the suppression of the first stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis. It is a structural analogue of phosphoenol pyruvate and enters into competitive interaction with the enzyme N-acetyl-glucosamine-3-o-enolpyruvyl transferase.
The result is a specific, selective and irreversible inhibition of this enzyme, which ensures the absence of cross-resistance with other classes of antibiotics and the possibility of synergism with other antibiotics (synergies with amoxicillin, cephalexin, pipemidic acid are noted in vitro).
Active in vitro against most gram-positive microorganisms: Enterococcus spp., Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Staphylococcus spp. Gram-negative microorganisms: Esherichia coli, Citrobacter spp., Enterobacter spp., Klebsiella spp., Klebsiella pneumoniae, Morganella morganii, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas spp., Serratia spp. In vitro fosfomycin reduces the adhesion of a number of bacteria to the epithelium of the urinary tract.
