The combination of lincomycin and spectinomycin acts is additive and in some cases synergistic. Spectinomycin acts mainly against Mycoplasma spp. and Gram-negative bacteria like E. coli and Pasteurella and Salmonella spp. Lincomycin acts mainly against Mycoplasma spp., Treponema spp., Campylobacter spp. and Gram-positive bacteria like Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Corynebacterium spp. and Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae. Cross-resistance of lincomycin with macrolides may occur.
