Application(s)
|
Antibacterial agent
|
Application(s)
|
Antiseptic
|
Application(s)
|
Inhibits dihydrofolate reductase from bacterial sources and from malaria parasites
|
Application(s)
|
Active against common urinary-tract pathogens except for Pseudomonas aeruginosa
|
Application(s)
|
Active against Haemophilus-influenzae.
|
Mechanism of Action
|
Folate antagonist
|
Mechanism of Action
|
Bacterial biosynthesis of nucleic acids and proteins is blocked by interference with normal bacterial metabolism of folinate
|
Mechanism of Action
|
Binding to bacterial enzyme is stronger than to the corresponding mammalian enzyme
|
Mechanism of Action
|
Reversible dihydrofolate-reductase-inhibitor
|
Mechanism of Action
|
Blocks production of tetrahydrofolate from dihydrofolate
