WHAT DOES CO-TRIMOXAZOLE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole

Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole or co-trimoxazole is an antibiotic used in the treatment of a variety of bacterial, fungal and protozoal infections. It consists of 1 part trimethoprim to 5 parts sulfamethoxazole. The drug has been marketed worldwide as generic preparations and under multiple brand names, including Septra and Bactrim. Co-trimoxazole is generally considered bactericidal, although its components are individually bacteriostatic. Its actions are antifolate in nature, inhibiting both de novo folate biosynthesis and metabolism. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, a list of the most important medication needed in a basic health system. Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole is often abbreviated as SXT, TMP-SMX, TMP-SMZ, or TMP-sulfa, although the abbreviating of drug names is not best practice in medicine.
