Quinupristin(Cat No.:M018674)is a semisynthetic antibiotic belonging to the streptogramin class, primarily used in combination with dalfopristin (as Synercid) to treat serious bacterial infections. It works by binding to the 50S subunit of bacterial ribosomes, inhibiting protein synthesis and leading to bacterial cell death. This combination is effective against multidrug-resistant gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecium, especially in hospital-acquired infections. Quinupristin is reserved for severe cases due to its powerful action, offering an essential treatment option for infections unresponsive to other antibiotics.
