Tigracilin, also known as tigecycline, is a broad-spectrum antibiotic belonging to the glycylcycline class. It is primarily used to treat various bacterial infections, particularly those caused by multidrug-resistant organisms. Tigecycline works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, making it effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including anaerobes. It is often prescribed for complicated skin and soft tissue infections, intra-abdominal infections, and community-acquired pneumonia.
