Royalmethox (18.6+4)%

Properties:

Royalmethox is an oral solution containing Sulphadimethoxine and Trimethoprim. Sulphadimethoxine has a low dose, rapidly absorbed long acting Sulfonamide, which produce its bacteriostatic effect by inhibiting the biosynthesis of folic acid by being mistakenly substituted for BAPA (Para-amino benzoic acid). Sulphadimethoxine has a broad spectrum of activity affecting on gram positive bacteria such as Staphylococci and gram negative bacteria such as E.coli, Haemophilus spp. Pasteurella spp. and Salmonella and protozoa such as coccidia. Trimethoprim: is a diaminopyrimidines antimicrobial agent, which act by preventing the reduction of dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate which required by the bacteria for biosynthesis of purines, pyrimidine and some amino acid. Because of their sequential action, Trimethoprim and sulfonamides potentiate each other, greatly increasing their individual antibacterial effects. The action of this combination is bactericidal, whereas the components used separately are generally bacteriostatic. Potentiating is shown even against bacteria that are generally resistant to one or other of the components.
