What is Sulfadiazine + Trimethoprim Oral Solution?
Active Ingredients: Sulfadiazine, Trimethoprim
Sulfadiazine + Trimethoprim Oral Solution is an antibiotic/antimicrobial combination drug used to treat or prevent infections in poultry and livestock animals such as cows, goats, sheep and pigs. This medicine is indicated for the treatment of gastrointestinal, respiratory, and urinary tract infections that are caused by susceptible microorganisms.
This combination acts synergistically with a broad range of activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria like E. coli, Haemophilus, Pasteurella, Salmonella, Staphylococcus, and Streptococcus.
Sulfadiazine is classified as a sulfonamide antibiotic. It displays action against most gram-positive and many gram-negative bacteria. It works by inhibiting folic acid synthesis within the bacteria. Trimethoprim is classified as an antibiotic and folate synthesis inhibitor. As both these drugs affect purine synthesis, it is a highly efficacious treatment option for many infections.
