The drug PENILENTE FORTE contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):
|
1
Benzathine benzylpenicillin
UNII RIT82F58GK - PENICILLIN G BENZATHINE
|
|
Semisynthetic antibiotic prepared by combining the sodium salt of penicillin G with N,N'-dibenzylethylenediamine. Benzathine benzylpenicillin binds to penicillin binding proteins (PBP), the enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of peptidoglycan, a critical component of the bacterial cell wall. This leads to the interruption of cell wall synthesis, consequently leading to bacterial cell growth inhibition and cell lysis. |
|
2
Benzylpenicillin
UNII YS5LY7JF4N - PENICILLIN G SODIUM
|
|
Benzylpenicillin is a beta-lactam antibiotic. It is bacteriocidal by inhibiting bacterial cell wall biosynthesis. Penicillin resistance can be mediated by alteration of penicillin binding proteins or development of beta-lactamases. |
