Pharmacological action
The active components (enrofloxacin, colistin sulfate) included in the composition of "Colifloxi" are characterized by a strong antibacterial effect against gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms.
Enrofloxacin belongs to the group of fluoroquinolones and is characterized by a broad spectrum of antibacterial and antimycoplasmal activity. Inhibits the growth and development of gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms. Enrofloxacin is quickly and well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and penetrates into all organs and tissues of the body. The maximum concentration in the blood is reached 1-2 hours after taking the drug and is maintained for 6 hours, and the therapeutic concentration lasts for 24 hours. Fluoroquinolones are mainly excreted unchanged in the urine and bile.
Colistin sulfate belongs to the polymyxin group of antibiotics. It has a bactericidal effect on gram-negative bacteria. Colistin sulfate binds to the phospholipids of the cytoplasmic membrane, increases the permeability of the cell membrane to both intracellular and extracellular components, disrupts metabolism and, as a result, lysis of the cells of microorganisms occurs.
When taken orally, colistin sulfate is practically not absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, which creates a high antibacterial concentration of colistin in the intestine. It is almost completely excreted from the body with feces.
