Composition :
Each 1 gm contains :
Sulphadiazine sodium ………………625 mg-
(eq.to sulphadiazine base 574.5 mg).
-Trimethoprim ……………..125 mg
Properties:
Potentiated sulphonamides sequentially inhibit enzymes in the folic acid pathway , thereby inhibiting bacterial thymidine synthesis . The sulfonamide blocks the conversion of para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) to dihydrofolic acid (DFA) , and trimethoprim blocks the conversion of DFA to tetrahydrofolic acid by inhibiting dihydrofolate reductase . The potentiated sulphonamides have a fairly broad spectrum of activity . Gram positive bacteria that are generally susceptible include most Streptococci , many strains of Staphylococcus and Nocardia . Many gram negative organisms of the family Enterobacteriaceae are susceptible to the potentiated sulphonamides, but not Pseudomonas aeruginosa .Some protozoa (pneumocystis carinii , Coccidia and Toxoplasma ) are also inhibited by the combonation . Potentiated sulphonamides reportedly have little activity against most anaerobes.
Indications:
For the treatment of diseases sensitive to trimethoprim / sulfadiazine in chickens , in particular enteric and respiratory bacterial infections.
