Nifuroxazide is a nitrofuran derivative with antimicrobial effect against Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and some Gram-negative microorganisms: Yersinia spp., Escherichia spp., Citrobacter spp., Enterobacter spp., Salmonella spp.

Nifuroxazide has no antimicrobial activity against Proteus vulgaris, Klebsiellaspp., Proteus mirabilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Supposedly blocks the activity of dehydrogenases and inhibits respiratory chains, tricarboxylic acid cycle and a number of other biochemical processes in the microbial cell. It does not disturb the balance of intestinal microflora.

In acute bacterial diarrhea it restores intestinal eubiosis. In case of infection with enterotropic viruses it prevents the development of bacterial superinfection.
