Tilmicosin phosphate (20-Deoxy-20-(3,5-dimethylpiperidin-1-yl)-desmycosin phosphate) is a salt of the semi-synthetic antibiotic derivative of desmycosin (tylosin B), a minor co-metabolite of tylosin, prepared by mixing the active tilmicosin with phosphoric acid to provide improved solubility and enhanced pharmacokinetics. Tilmicosin is a broad spectrum antibiotic, providing good protection against Pasteurella in livestock.
Tilmicosin phosphate is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF and DMSO.
