Mechanism of action
Imagine your body's cells are like factories that make proteins. Bacteria are like tiny factories that also make proteins, but they can cause harm. Spiramycin I stops these bacterial factories from making proteins by binding to a specific part of the factory, called the 50S ribosomal subunit.
