Specification

Sulteprim® oral solution is an antibacterial drug, has a broad-
spectrum activity against most gram-positive and gram-negative
bacteria, including E. coli, Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus spp.,
Streptococcus spp., Shigella spp., Haemophilus spp., Pasteurella spp., etc.,
some protozoa (Coccidia and Toxoplasma gondii). Sulfadimezine is a
sulfanilamide agent. In structure, it is similar to para-aminobenzoic
acid. Sulfadimezine inhibits dihydrofolic acid synthesis in the
bacterial cell, prevents inclusion of para-aminobenzoic acid in its
molecule. Trimethoprim is a synthetic antibiotic. It enhances the
effect of sulfadimezine through reduction of dihydrofolic acid to
tetrahydrofolic acid – active form of folic acid – responsible for
protein metabolism and bacterial division. The synergistic bactericidal
effect of the combination inhibits folic acid synthesis, which leads to
the inhibition of nucleotide synthesis.
Sulfadimezine and trimethoprim are well and quickly absorbed in
the gastrointestinal tract and distributed to all organs and tissues.
The antibacterial concentration persists for 24 hours. Sulfadimezine
and trimethoprim are excreted primarily in the urine and to a lesser
extent in the bile.
