Tetracycline Tetracycline is a broad-spectrum bacteriostatic antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit, blocking tRNA attachment. It is used for rickettsial infections, acne, cholera, and respiratory infections. It chelates divalent cations, reducing absorption with dairy and antacids, and can cause photosensitivity and tooth discoloration.
