The invention discloses a novel medical application of
sodium new houttuyfonate in prevention and treatment of
pathogenic bacteria, including application of
sodium new houttuyfonate in preparation of drugs for prevention and treatment of
pathogenic fungus infection or drugs for inhibition of pathogenic fungi. The pathogenic fungi are selected from one or more of
cryptococcus neoformans,
cryptococcus gattii,
trichophyton rubrum,
trichophyton purple, microsporum canis, candida niticola complex
bacteria,
candida albicans,
trichophyton mentagrophytes and trichophyton broken. Researches show that
sodium new houttuyfonate has important significance in preventing and treating infection of different
pathogenic bacteria, especially has a remarkable
curative effect on
cryptococcus neoformans
lung infectious diseases and
skin traumatic infectious diseases, and compared with traditional antibacterial drugs, the sodium new houttuyfonate is not prone to causing
drug resistance of
pathogenic bacteria and has a good application prospect. The compound is expected to be developed into a candidate
drug for clinically treating different pathogenic
bacteria, is efficient, non-toxic and broad-spectrum, is expected to solve the problem of
drug resistance of the pathogenic
bacteria, and has a good application prospect.
