Sulfamethoxazole tablets

It is a medium-acting sulfonamide drug with a broad-spectrum antibacterial effect. It has antibacterial effects on non-enzyme-producing Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Salmonella, Shigella and some strains of Enterobacteriaceae, gonococci, meningococci, and Haemophilus influenzae. In addition, it also has antimicrobial activity against Chlamydia trachomatis, Nocardia asteroides, Plasmodium falciparum and Toxoplasma gondii in vitro. However, in recent years, bacterial resistance to this drug has increased significantly, especially Streptococcus, Neisseria and Enterobacteriaceae. Sulfonamides are broad-spectrum antibacterial agents, similar in structure to para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA). They can compete with PABA on dihydrofolate synthase in bacteria, thereby preventing PABA from being used as a raw material to synthesize folic acid required by bacteria, and reducing the amount of metabolically active tetrahydrofolate, which is an essential substance for bacteria to synthesize purine, thymidine and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), thereby inhibiting the growth and reproduction of bacteria.

This product is a compound preparation, each tablet contains the active ingredients 0.4g of sulfamethoxazole and 0.08g of trimethoprim.

Sulfonamides are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but because many common clinical pathogens are currently resistant to this class of drugs, they are only used for infections caused by sensitive bacteria and other sensitive pathogenic microorganisms. The indications for sulfamethoxazole (excluding compound preparations of this class of drugs with trimethoprim) are: 1. Acute simple urinary tract infections caused by sensitive bacteria. 2. Combined with trimethoprim to treat otitis media caused by Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae and other streptococci that are sensitive to it. 3. Astrocyte Nocardiosis. 4. An auxiliary drug for the treatment of chloroquine-resistant malignant malaria. 5. Combined with pyrimethamine to treat toxoplasmosis caused by Toxoplasma gondii. 6. It is the second-choice drug for the treatment of cervicitis and urethritis caused by Chlamydia trachomatis. 7. The second-choice drug for the treatment of chancroid caused by Haemophilus ducreyi. 8. Treatment of Chlamydia trachomatis

1. Common dosage for adults: For the treatment of general infections, the first dose is 2g, and then 2g per day, divided into 2 doses. 2. Common dosage for children: For the treatment of general infections in infants and children over 2 months old. The first dose is 50-60mg/kg per day (the total dose does not exceed 2g/day), and then 50-60mg/kg per day, divided into 2 doses.

1. Allergic reactions are common and may manifest as drug eruptions. In severe cases, exudative erythema multiforme, exfoliative dermatitis, and bullous epidermolysis atrophic dermatitis may occur. There are also serum sickness-like reactions such as photosensitivity, drug fever, joint and muscle pain, and fever. 2. Neutropenia or deficiency, thrombocytopenia, and aplastic anemia. Patients may present with sore throat, fever, pallor, and bleeding tendency. 3. Hemolytic anemia and hemoglobinuria. Patients who lack glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase are prone to this after taking sulfonamides. This is more common in newborns and children than in adults. 4. Hyperbilirubinemia and neonatal kernicterus. Sulfonamides compete with bilirubin for protein binding sites. This can cause an increase in free bilirubin. Neonates have imperfect liver function, so they are more likely to develop hyperbilirubinemia and neonatal jaundice, and kernicterus may occasionally occur. 5. Liver damage. Jaundice and decreased liver function may occur, and in severe cases, acute liver necrosis may occur. 6. Kidney damage. Crystalluria, hematuria and tubular urine may occur. Occasionally, patients may develop serious adverse reactions such as interstitial nephritis or tubular necrosis. 7. Nausea, vomiting, decreased appetite, diarrhea, headache, fatigue, etc., generally mild symptoms, do not affect continued medication. Occasionally, patients develop Clostridium difficile enteritis, and the drug should be discontinued at this time. 8. Occasionally, thyroid enlargement and hypofunction occur. 9. Central nervous system toxicity may occasionally occur, manifested as mental confusion, disorientation, hallucinations, euphoria or depression. Once it occurs, the drug should be discontinued immediately. Although serious adverse reactions caused by sulfonamides are rare, they can be fatal, such as exudative erythema multiforme, exfoliative dermatitis, epidermolysis bullosa atrophic dermatitis, fulminant liver necrosis, agranulocytosis, aplastic anemia and other blood system abnormalities. Close observation should be made during treatment, and the drug should be discontinued immediately when rash or other early signs of reaction appear.

1. It is contraindicated for those who are allergic to sulfonamide drugs. 2. It is contraindicated for pregnant women and lactating women. 3. It is contraindicated for infants under 2 months old. 4. It is contraindicated for patients with megaloblastic anemia.

1. The combined use of urine alkalinizing drugs can increase the solubility of this product in alkaline urine and increase excretion. 2. It cannot be used with para-aminobenzoic acid, which can replace this product for bacterial uptake, and the two are antagonistic to each other. It is also not suitable to be used with local anesthetics containing para-aminobenzoyl such as procaine, benzocaine, tetracaine, etc. 3. When used with oral anticoagulants, oral hypoglycemic drugs, methotrexate, phenytoin sodium and thiopental sodium, the above drugs need to adjust the dosage, because this product can replace the protein binding sites of these drugs, or inhibit their metabolism, resulting in prolonged drug action time or toxicity. 4. When used with bone marrow suppressive drugs, it may enhance the adverse reactions of such drugs to the hematopoietic system. If there is an indication to use two types of drugs together, possible toxic reactions should be closely observed. 5. Long-term use with contraceptives (estrogens) can reduce the reliability of contraception and increase the chance of extramenstrual bleeding. 6. When used with thrombolytic drugs, its potential toxic effects may be increased. 7. When used in combination with hepatotoxic drugs, the incidence of hepatotoxicity may increase. Liver function should be monitored for such patients, especially those who have been taking the drug for a long time and have a history of liver disease. 8. When used in combination with photosensitizing drugs, additive photosensitivity may occur. 9. Patients receiving this product have an increased need for vitamin K. 10. It should not be used in combination with methenamine, because methenamine can decompose in acidic urine to produce formaldehyde, which can form insoluble precipitates with this product, increasing the risk of crystalluria. 11. This product can replace the plasma protein binding site of phenylbutazone, and the combination of the two can increase the effect of phenylbutazone. 12. Because this product may interfere with the bactericidal effect of penicillins, it is best to avoid using it at the same time with such drugs. 13. When sulfinpyrazone is used in combination with this product, it can reduce the secretion of this product from the renal tubules, resulting in an increase in blood drug concentration and persistent or toxicity. Therefore, the dose of this product may need to be adjusted during or after the use of sulfinpyrazone.

Keep away from light and store in sealed container.
