Therapeutic Class:

Active Ingredients: Sulfamethoxazole, Trimethoprim

Sulfamethoxazole + Trimethoprim (Co-Trimoxazole) for Oral Suspension is a fixed-dose combination drug used to treat bacterial infections. It is indicated for the treatment and prophylaxis of toxoplasmosis and Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonitis.
