Abstract

A pharmaceutical preparation is disclosed which is made up of a micelle or a vesicle each consisting of a cationic tenside with a monovalent ion and a hydrophobic cyclic or linear peptide, dispersed in a solvent whose pH value lies between pH 7-pH 8, the critical micellization concentration (cmc) lying in the range of 1.0.10.sup.-7 to 7.0.10.sup.-5 mol/liter. The preparations disclosed have in particular the advantage that by the increasing of the hydrophobicity of the alkyl or aryl chain or the radical at the N.sup.+ tenside both the membrane permeability is increased and furthermore the pharmaceutical active substance, in particular linear and cyclic tyrocidines (A-J), can be transferred actively into the cytosol. They thus act on the transciption level. In addition, linear and cyclic tyrocidines in particular have antiviral effects.
