Order Sumycin to treat infections
Sumycin is in the class of drugs calles Tetracyclines. Tetracyclines alter
the chemical activity inside the bacteria, preventing the production of
proteins needed by the bacteria to survive. Drugs in the class: Demeclocycline
(Declomycin); Doxycycline (Adoxa, Doryx, Doxy, Periostat, Vibra-Tabs,
Vibramycin); Minocycline Oral (Dynacin, Minocin Oral); Tetracycline (Sumycin).
Bacteria cause disease in two ways: they release toxins that harm and
kill body cells, and they provoke the immune system, leading to inflammation.
Bacteria release toxins that enter cells and kill them. The body's first
reaction to a bacterial invasion, is a general inflammatory reaction.
Blood vessels in the area of the infection widen to increase the supply
of white blood cells that fight infection. Blood proteins (complement)
are released into the system. Complement either kills the bacteria directly
or attracts immune cells called phagocytes, which ingest and kill the
bacteria. Antibodies are molecules that the body's immune system uses
to identify a particular invader. In response to a bacterial invasion,
the antibodies bind to bacteria and then attract complement and phagocytes,
which kill the bacteria.
