Ticarcillin (also known as Ticar) is a semisynthetic antibiotic with a broad spectrum of bactericidal activity against many gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Ticarcillin is not absorbed orally; therefore, it must be given intravenously or intramuscularly. Ticarcillin's antibiotic properties arise from its ability to prevent cross-linking of peptidoglycan during cell wall synthesis when the bacteria tries to divide, causing death. Usage of ticar was discontinued.
