Description and Uses

Like sulfisoxazole, this drug is effective in treating infections caused by streptococci, gonococci, pneumococci, staphylococci as well as colon bacillus. Unlike sulfisoxazole, only about 70% of it binds with proteins in the plasma after oral administration, and it diffuses mostly to tissues and tissue fluids. However, since it is removed much slower than sulfisoxazole, it does not require frequent administration and is also the drug of choice for many systemic infections. Moreover, it is an ingredient of a combined drug named bactrim, biseptol, and so on (which will be examined later on), which has a fixed correlation with trimethoprim. Synonyms of this drug are gantanol, sinomin, sulfisomezole, and others.

An antibacterial drug. Sulfonamide antibiotic that blocks the synthesis of dihydrofolic acid by inhibiting the enzyme dihydropteroate synthase.This compound is a contaminant of emerging concern (CECs).
