The drug ELICORID contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):
1
Rabeprazole
UNII 32828355LL - RABEPRAZOLE
|
Rabeprazole belongs to the class of anti-secretory compounds, the substituted benzimidazoles, that do not exhibit anticholinergic or H2 histamine antagonist properties, but suppress gastric acid secretion by the specific inhibition of the H+/K+ -ATPase enzyme (the acid or proton pump). |
2
Clarithromycin
UNII H1250JIK0A - CLARITHROMYCIN
|
Clarithromycin is a semi-synthetic derivative of erythromycin A. It exerts its antibacterial action by selectively binding to the 50s ribosomal sub-unit of susceptible bacteria preventing translocation of activated amino acids. It inhibits the intracellular protein synthesis of susceptible bacteria. |
3
Amoxicillin
UNII 804826J2HU - AMOXICILLIN
|
Amoxicillin is a semisynthetic penicillin (beta-lactam antibiotic) that inhibits one or more enzymes (often referred to as penicillin-binding proteins, PBPs) in the biosynthetic pathway of bactericidal peptidoglycan, which is an integral structural component of the bacterial cell wall. Inhibition of peptidoglycan synthesis leads to weakening of the cell wall, which is usually followed by cell lysis and death. |
