Description

Terramycin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic for the external application. Its main active ingredient is Oxytetracycline.

 

Terramycin has bacteriostatic action and is active as to many originators of infection: gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria causing skin infections including Fusobacterium necroforum.

 

During the external application, Terramycin is poorly absorbed into the systemic blood flow, so that it does not provide a side effect to the body and is well tolerated. Accumulating in the human tissues, it prevents the development of bacteria and quickly reduces the inflammatory process.

 

Terramycin accelerates healing of wounds and can be also used in postsurgical period to prevent infectious diseases. This medicine is actively used in veterinary medicine to treat skin infections in pets and cattle.

 

Pharmaceutical form

Terramycin is released in two medical forms: in the form of ointment and spray. Terramycin ointment is released in tubes of 3,5 g, and spray is released in special bottles with a dosing device.

 

How to take Terramycin?

Terramycin ointment is used 1 to 3 times per day depending on the type and severity of the disease. Before using the ointment, it is necessary to carefully rinse the affected area of the skin, wipe dry and apply the ointment with a thin layer. It is not obligatory to rub Terramycin ointment. If necessary, a band may be used for better absorption into the skin.

 

Terramycin spray is applied to the skin 1 to 3 times per day. It is necessary to spray some amount of the medicine to the affected area of the skin and wait for its complete absorption.

 

The treatment is continued till all infection symptoms are gone. Do not use this antibiotic often even though Terramycin is not absorbed into the systemic blood flow. The overdose may cause an allergic reaction.
