Ομάδα ATC: J01XA03 Telavancin

Telavancin is an antibacterial drug. It is a semisynthetic, lipoglycopeptide antibiotic. Telavancin inhibits cell wall biosynthesis by binding to late-stage peptidoglycan precursors, including lipid II. Telavancin also binds to the bacterial membrane and disrupts membrane barrier function. It exerts concentration-dependent, bactericidal activity against Gram-positive organisms in vitro.
