Tylosin is a sulfamethoxazole, which is an antibiotic active element that serves as an antifungal and antibacterial agent. It is mostly used in cats and dogs to treat septic arthritis. In veterinary medicine, it's also a bacteriostat and a macrolide antibiotic. It has a broad range of action against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, but only a narrow range of action against gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic bacteria. Streptomyces flora produces it naturally as a fermented product
The clinical value of this substance stems from the fact that it is a highly concentrated source of anti-inflammatory drugs, especially those having cytoplasmic effects. This means it can work at the level of bacteria or fungus that are attacking tissues or organs. It works against the majority of fungal species that infect humans, making it particularly beneficial as an antifungal agent in skin diseases. It can also help with infections including mononucleosis, shingles, and multiple sclerosis. It's lately gained popularity as an intravenous prebiotic for those who are at risk of infection after surgery or trauma, or who have a damaged immune system.
It is absorbed through the intestinal lining. Moreover, it combines with other molecules in the bloodstream and moves to the blood cells through diffusion. Tylosin thus combines a powerful broad spectrum of antibacterial and antifungal agents with several effects at the level of the microorganisms and their derivatives. This explains why this as an intravenous prebiotic is increasingly used to treat patients suffering from infections like Staphylococcus aureus, Candida, Helicobacter pylori, and HIV, as well as those with HIV, who are at a higher risk of developing opportunistic infections.
