Ticarcin
Ticarcin Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
An antibiotic derived from penicillin similar to carbenicillin in action.
Ticarcillin is a semisynthetic antibiotic with a broad spectrum of bactericidal activity against many gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Ticarcillin is, however, susceptible to degradation by ß-lactamases, and therefore, the spectrum of activity does not normally include organisms which produce these enzymes.

How Ticarcin works
Ticarcillin's principal mechanism of action revolves around its capacity to prevent the cross-linking of peptidoglycan during bacterial cell wall synthesis. Consequently, when the offending bacteria attempt to undergo cell division, cell death occurs.
Toxicity
As with other penicillins, neurotoxic reactions may arise when very high doses of ticarcillin are administered, especially in patients with impaired renal function.
