Macrolides - what does this mean

Macrolides are a group of antibiotics that work by inhibiting protein synthesis in bacteria. they are commonly used to treat bacterial infections such as pneumonia, bronchitis, and some sexually transmitted diseases. macrolides work by binding to the ribosomes of the bacteria, which are responsible for producing proteins, and preventing the bacteria from producing proteins necessary for growth and survival. as a result, the bacteria are unable to multiply and spread, eventually leading to their death.

What happens during the disease - macrolides

Macrolides are antibiotics that work by blocking the production of proteins necessary for bacterial growth and replication. this leads to an inhibition of bacterial growth and death, as bacteria are unable to replicate and survive. in some cases, macrolides can also interfere with the ability of bacteria to attach to host cells, further preventing the spread of disease.
