Drugs in Telavancin
Telavancin is not a distinct therapeutic drug class, but rather a specific active pharmaceutical ingredient belonging to the lipoglycopeptide class of antibacterial agents.
As a semisynthetic derivative of vancomycin, it exerts bactericidal activity through a dual mechanism: inhibiting late-stage bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan synthesis and disrupting the bacterial cell membrane potential and permeability.
Clinically, it is utilized as an intravenous therapy primarily directed against serious Gram-positive infections, including methicillin-resistant *Staphylococcus aureus* (MRSA).
Its established therapeutic indications encompass complicated skin and skin structure infections as well as hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia when alternative treatment options are unsuitable.
