Description:
Demeclocycline (INN, BAN) (brand names Declomycin, Declostatin, Ledermycin, Bioterciclin, Deganol, Deteclo), also known as demeclocycline hydrochloride (USAN) (brand names Detravis, Meciclin, Mexocine, Clortetrin), is a semisynthetic tetracycline antibiotic which was derived from a strain of Streptomyces aureofaciens. Demeclocycline binds to bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit and prevents binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to the mRNA-ribosome complex, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis. Demeclocycline also inhibits the effect of vasopressin on the renal tubules, thereby causing diuresis. (Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demeclocycline).
