Iboxamycin is a synthetic lincosamide or oxepanoprolinamide antibiotic. It binds to the bacterial ribosome in both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and it has been found to effective against bacteria which are resistant to other antibiotics that target the large ribosomal subunit. It was developed by combining an oxepanoproline unit with the aminooctose residue of clindamycin.
