A pharmacodynamics
Maksitrol – a dexamethasone combination with antimicrobial drugs.
Neomycinum – an antibiotic from group of aminoglycosides. Neomycinum has bactericidal effect, breaking synthesis of protein in a microbic cell. Possesses a wide range of antibacterial action, it is active concerning gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms, including St. Aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Proteus, Shigella. It is a little effective concerning streptococci and P. Aeruginosa. Does not affect a pathogenic fungi, viruses, anaerobic flora. Resistance of microorganisms to Neomycinum develops slowly and in small degree.
Polymyxin B – an antibiotic of polypeptide structure. The mechanism of action is caused by ability to contact phospholipids of membranes of microbic cells that leads to their destruction. Shigella, Enterobacter, Klebsiella spp., Haemophilus influenzae, Salmonella, Bordetella pertussis is active concerning the majority of gram-negative microorganisms, including Escherichia coli, is especially active concerning P. Aeruginosa, is not active concerning Proteus, Nesseria spp., strict anaerobes and gram-positive bacteria. Vibrio cholerae (except for the eltor subtype) and also Coccidioides immitis is sensitive to polymyxin, but generally mushrooms show resistance to this antibiotic. It is one of the most active antibiotics against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Dexamethasone – glyukortikosteroid, actively suppresses inflammatory processes, oppressing emission by eosinophils of mediators of inflammation, migration of mast cells and reducing permeability of capillaries, and also has the antiallergic and desensibilizing effect.
