Capreomycin（Cat No.:M058916）is an injectable antibiotic primarily used to treat multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Derived from the bacterium Streptomyces capreolus, it belongs to the cyclic polypeptide antibiotic class and works by inhibiting protein synthesis in mycobacteria, effectively stopping bacterial growth. Often administered in combination with other anti-TB drugs to prevent resistance and enhance efficacy, capreomycin is vital for patients who don’t respond to standard TB treatments. Due to its potential side effects, including kidney and ear toxicity, it is used carefully and monitored closely in clinical settings.
