It blocks the synthesis of cell walls of the bacteria, slows the enzyme activity of transpeptidase and carboxypeptidase, causes osmotic balance disturbance, which resulting to the death of microorganisms during the stage of development.

The preparation is active against gram-positive (Actinomycos spp., Bacillus antracis, Cloctridium spp., Corynebacterium spp., Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae, Streptococcus spp., Listeria monocytogenes) and gram-negative (Actinobacillus app., Bordetella bronchiseptica, Fusobacterium spp., Haemophilus app., Moraxella spp ., Pasteurella app., Proteus mirabilis, Salmonella spp.) microorganisms.
