FORMULATED MEDICINES FOR ENHANCING THE EFFICACY OF BETA-LACTAM ANTIBIOTICS IN PROPHYLAXIS AND TREATMENT AGAINST INFECTIOUS DISEASE DUE TO PATHOGENIC BACTERIA

摘要

Lactoferrin can be used to increase the efficacy of beta-lactam antibiotics. There is a synergistic effect when lactoferrin is administered either simultaneous with or shortly before or after the administration of beta-lactam antibiotics. The dosage of lactoferrin administered is usually 0.5-100 mg/kg and preferably 1-10 mg/kg.
