Berberine Trimethoprim Capsules
Function and Efficacy

Berberine hydrochloride has inhibitory effects on a variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in vitro, among which hemolytic streptococci, Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio cholerae, Neisseria meningitidis, Shigella, Salmonella typhi, Corynebacterium diphtheriae, etc. have stronger inhibitory effects. It also has a certain inhibitory effect on amoeba. Trimethoprim mainly interferes with bacterial folate metabolism, selectively inhibits dihydrofolate reductase, and prevents nucleic acid synthesis. Therefore, the antibacterial effect of the two combined is stronger than that of a single drug, and the drug-resistant strains are reduced.
