All the MP antibiotics except Bactrim are bacteriostatic. Bacteriostatic antibiotics are a class of antibiotics that work by disabling bacterial ribosomes – small, dense, structures that allow the pathogens to replicate and survive. When an antibiotic binds to a bacterial ribosome, it limits the growth of bacteria by interfering with bacterial protein production, DNA replication, | All the MP antibiotics except Bactrim are bacteriostatic.
