Usage |
Fosfomycin Trometamol is the tromethamine (trometamol) salt of Fosfomycin. It is a broad-spectrum, bactericidal antibiotic API. Its unique mechanism of action inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis at an early stage, making it effective against many multidrug-resistant strains with a low cross-resistance profile.
Primary Application:
Fosfomycin Trometamolis primarily used in the formulation of single-dose oral sachets or granules for the treatment of uncomplicated lower Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), such as acute cystitis.
