Norvancomycin is an analog of glycopeptide antibiotic vancomycin. It was first found to be produced by a soil microorganisms such Nocardia orientalis and Amycolatopsis orientalis and recently was found in actinomycete Amycolatopsis orientalis CPCC200066. Norvancomycin can be derived by demethylation at N-terminus of vancomycin. It has significant inhibitory activity against Gram-positive cocci and bacilli. The mode of action of norvancomycin is based on its ability to bind to the cell-wall peptidoglycan of Gram-positive bacteria terminating tripeptide -L-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala. Similar to vancomycin in terms of antibacterial activity, spectrum and clinical efficacy norvancomycin has more potent antibiotic activity against Staphylococcus aureus and higher affinity for bacteria cell wall analogue DALAA than vancomycin. Norvancomycin has been widely used in China to treat endocarditis, osteomyelitis and other severe infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus (including methicillin-resistant strains). The adverse drug reactions of norvancomycin are like vancomycin, such as nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, rash and itching. Norvancomycin is not available therapeutically outside of China.

Ibafloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic drug used in veterinary medicine. Ibafloxacin, a fluorinated 4-quinolone, is a broad spectrum antibiotic with bactericidal action against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Ibafloxacin is presented in the form of a tablet/oral gel containing a racemic mixture of S- and R-ibafloxacin. The antimicrobial activity of the racemate originates mainly from the S-enantiomer. Ibafloxacin was marketed under the brand name Ibaflin. Ibaflin tablets were intended for use in dogs for treatment of respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections and dermal infections caused by ibafloxacin susceptible pathogens. Ibafloxacin, is an antibiotic belonging to the class ‘fluoroquinolones’. It works by blocking an enzyme called ‘DNA gyrase’, which is important in allowing bacteria to make copies of their DNA. This enzyme is only found in bacterial cells, and does not have a similar function in animal cells. By blocking DNA gyrase, ibafloxacin prevents the bacteria from making DNA and stops them making proteins and growing, resulting in their death.

Kanamycin (a mixture of kanamycin A, B and C) is an aminoglycoside bacteriocidal antibiotic, available in oral, intravenous, and intramuscular forms, and used to treat a wide variety of infections. It is effective against Gram-negative bacteria and certain Gram-positive bacteria. Aminoglycosides work by binding to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit, causing misreading of t-RNA, leaving the bacterium unable to synthesize proteins vital to its growth. Serious side effects include tinnitus or loss of hearing, toxicity to kidneys, and allergic reactions to the drug. Mixing of an aminoglycoside with beta-lactam-type antibiotics (penicillins or cephalosporins) may result in a significant mutual inactivation. Even when an aminoglycoside and a penicillin-type drug are administered separately by different routes, a reduction in aminoglycoside serum half-life or serum levels has been reported in patients with impaired renal function and in some patients with normal renal function.
Imipenem is a beta-lactam antibiotic belongings to the subgroup of carbapenems. Imipenem has a broad spectrum of activity against aerobic and anaerobic Gram positive as well as Gram negative bacteria. It is particularly important for its activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the Enterococcus species. Imipenem is rapidly degraded by the renal enzyme dehydropeptidase when administered alone, and is always co-administered with cilastatin to prevent this inactivation. The bactericidal activity of imipenem results from the inhibition of cell wall synthesis. Its greatest affinity is for penicillin binding proteins (PBPs) 1A, 1B, 2, 4, 5 and 6 of Escherichia coli, and 1A, 1B, 2, 4 and 5 of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The lethal effect is related to binding to PBP 2 and PBP 1B. Imipenem is marketed under the brand name Primaxin. PRIMAXIN I.M. (Imipenem and Cilastatin for Injectable Suspension) is a formulation of imipenem (a thienamycin antibiotic) and cilastatin sodium (the inhibitor of the renal dipeptidase, dehydropeptidase I). PRIMAXIN I.M. is a potent broad spectrum antibacterial agent for intramuscular administration.
Lincomycin (LINCOCIN®) is an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces lincolnensis (Streptomycetaceae family). It has been used in the treatment of staphylococcal, streptococcal, and Bacteroides fragilis infections. Lincomycin (LINCOCIN®) inhibits protein synthesis in susceptible bacteria by binding to the 50S subunits of bacterial ribosomes and preventing peptide bond formation upon transcription. It is usually considered bacteriostatic, but may be bactericidal in high concentrations or when used against highly susceptible microorganisms.

Penicillin V is a penicillin beta-lactam antibiotic used in the treatment of bacterial infections caused by susceptible, usually gram-positive, organisms. The name "penicillin" can either refer to several variants of penicillin available, or to the group of antibiotics derived from the penicillins. Penicillin V has in vitro activity against gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. The bactericidal activity of Penicillin V results from the inhibition of cell wall synthesis and is mediated through Penicillin V binding to penicillin binding proteins (PBPs). Penicillin V is stable against hydrolysis by a variety of beta-lactamases, including penicillinases, and cephalosporinases and extended spectrum beta-lactamases. By binding to specific penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located inside the bacterial cell wall, Penicillin V inhibits the third and last stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis. Cell lysis is then mediated by bacterial cell wall autolytic enzymes such as autolysins; it is possible that Penicillin V interferes with an autolysin inhibitor. Used for the treatment of mild to moderately severe infections (e.g. dental infection, infections in the heart, middle ear infections, rheumatic fever, scarlet fever, skin infections, upper and lower respiratory tract infections) due to microorganisms.
