Acetohydroxamic acid and Tetracon

• Generic Name: acetohydroxamic acid

Acetohydroxamic acid helps prevent a build-up of ammonia in urine that can be caused by a bladder infection. Increased ammonia in urine can cause the growth of kidney stones.

Acetohydroxamic acid is used to keep urine ammonia levels low in people who have a certain type of chronic bladder infection.

Acetohydroxamic acid is not an antibiotic and will not treat the infection itself. acetohydroxamic acid is only part of a treatment program that may also include antibiotics to treat the infection, and surgery to remove kidney stones. Follow your doctor's instructions very closely.

Tetracon is an antibiotic that fights infection caused by bacteria.

Tetracon is used to treat many different bacterial infections of the skin, intestines, respiratory tract, urinary tract, genitals, lymph nodes, and other body systems. This medicine is often used in treating severe acne, or sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis, gonorrhea, or chlamydia. This medicine is also used to treat infections you can get from direct contact with infected animals or contaminated food.

In some cases, Tetracon is used when penicillin or another antibiotic cannot be used to treat serious infections such as Anthrax, Listeria, Clostridium, Actinomyces, and others.
