Presentation:

Tylosin is a macrolide antibiotic produced by a strain of Streptomyces fradiae. It exerts its antimicrobial effect by inhibiting protein synthesis of susceptible micro-organisms. The Tylosin spectrum of activity includes amongst others Gram-positive bacteria, some Gram – negative strains such as Pasteurella, and Mycoplasma spp. In most species peak plasma concentrations have been attained 1 to 2 hours after administration of tylosin. Compared to plasma levels clearly higher tissue concentrations have been observed. Tylosin was extensively metabolised.
