Dear Mauricio,
The active ingredient lymecycline is a tetracycline antibiotic which is more readily absorbed from the gastro-intestinal tract than tetracycline, with a peak serum concentration of approximately 2mg/L after 3 hours following a 300 mg dose. It is a half synthetic combination of water soluble tetracyclin, the amino acid lysin and formaldehyd. After oral application this combination is hydrolised within the GI tract to tetracyclin, lysin and formaldehyd and therefore not available as lymecycline in the systemic circulation. In other words lymecycline is a pro-drug of tetracycline.
Kind regards
Dan

Kind regards and have a nice day

Every man gets a narrower and narrower field of knowledge
in which he must be an expert in order to compete with other people.
The specialist knows more and more about less and less
and finally knows everything about nothing.    Konrad Lorenz
