pharmachologic effect
According to the instructions, Streptocide has a bacteriostatic effect. In terms of its effectiveness, the drug is largely inferior to modern antibiotics. Currently, many strains of microorganisms, in particular hospital ones, are resistant to streptocide treatment.
The drug acts on gram-negative and gram-positive cocci, chlamydia, gram-negative sticks, nocardia, protozoa. In an alkaline environment, the activity of streptocide increases.
Anaerobes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, enterococci are immune to streptocide treatment.
When Streptocide is used internally, it is rapidly absorbed, after 1-2 hours its maximum concentration in the blood plasma is observed.
With the advent of more active and much easier tolerated sulfa drugs and antibiotics, the value of the drug as a drug for the treatment of bacterial infections has significantly decreased.

Method of using Streptocide
According to the instructions, Streptocid is prescribed orally for bacillary and coccal diseases. As a rule, the dosage for adults is 0.5-1 g per dose, four to six times a day, but no more than seven times.
