Sulfamethoxypyrazine(Cat No.:R058626)is a long-acting sulfonamide antibiotic primarily used in combination with other agents to treat and prevent malaria and various bacterial infections. It works by inhibiting dihydropteroate synthase, an enzyme essential for folic acid synthesis in parasites and bacteria, effectively halting their growth. Known for its slow elimination rate, sulfamethoxypyrazine allows for prolonged therapeutic action, making it valuable in combination therapies for malaria, often alongside pyrimethamine. Its extended activity and targeted mechanism contribute to effective infection control in malaria-endemic regions, supporting both prophylactic and therapeutic applications.
