Macromycin Tablet 10 contains spiramycin (400 mg).

• Binds to 50S Ribosomal Subunit: Spiramycin attaches itself to a component of bacteria known as the 50S ribosomal subunit. This component is crucial for bacteria as it helps them create proteins.
• Inhibits Protein Synthesis: By sticking to the 50S ribosomal subunit, spiramycin blocks protein synthesis in bacteria. This action impedes their growth and multiplication, thereby controlling the infection.
• Exhibits Bactericidal Activity: At higher concentrations, spiramycin may not just inhibit bacteria but kill them outright - a property known as bactericidal activity. This action helps clear the infection more thoroughly and swiftly.
