Description
COTRIM 50 combines Trimethoprim and Sulfadiazine Sodium, two antimicrobial agents that work synergistically to provide broad-spectrum antibacterial coverage.
Sulfadiazine Sodium inhibits the formation of dihydrofolic acid, while Trimethoprim blocks the conversion of dihydrofolic acid to tetrahydrofolic acid. By targeting two sequential steps in bacterial folic acid metabolism, the combination produces a highly effective bactericidal action.
This dual-action formulation is effective against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and is commonly used in veterinary medicine for managing severe bacterial infections affecting multiple body systems.
Indications
- Respiratory tract infections
- Gastrointestinal bacterial infections
