Bacitracin is a cyclic polypeptide antibiotic used to prevent wound infections, treat pneumonia and empyema in infants, and to treat skin and eye infections.
Bacitracin binds to a divalent metal ion such as Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), or Zn(II). These complexes bind C-isoprenyl pyrophosphate, preventing the hydrolysis of a lipid dolichol pyrophosphate, which finally inhibits cell wall synthesis. Bacitracin metal complexes also bind and oxidatively cleave DNA.
Bacitracin is indicated in topical formulations for acute and chronic localized skin infections. Occasionally, it is also used intramuscularly for infantile streptococcal pneumonia and empyema. Bacitracin is also formulated as an ointment with neomycin and polymyxin B for over the counter use. A bacitracin ointment formulated with neomycin and polymyxin B along with hydrocortisone is indicated for the treatment of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses with secondary infection.
