Fosfomycin
Introduction
 is a novel class of Overview of Antibacterial Drugs with a chemical structure unrelated to other known antibiotics. It is a bactericidal drug that disrupts cell wall synthesis by inhibiting phosphoenolpyruvate synthetase and thus interferes with the production of peptidoglycan. In the US, it is available only as a powder formulation offosfomycintromethamine, which can be dissolved in liquid and taken orally. Outside the US, IV formulations are available.
