DESCRIPTION
Oxytetracycline is a product of the metabolism of Streptomyces rimosus and
is one of the family of tetracycline antibiotics.
Oxytetracycline diffuses readily through the placenta into the fetal circulation,
into the pleural fluid and, under some circumstances, into the cerebrospinal
fluid. It appears to be concentrated in the hepatic system and excreted in the
bile, so that it appears in the feces, as well as in the urine, in a biologically
active form.
