CAS 1037-50-9: Sulfadimethoxine sodium
Description:Sulfadimethoxine sodium is a sulfonamide antibiotic commonly used in veterinary medicine, particularly for the treatment of bacterial infections in livestock and poultry. It is a sodium salt of sulfadimethoxine, which is characterized by its broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against various Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The compound works by inhibiting bacterial folic acid synthesis, thereby disrupting essential metabolic processes. Sulfadimethoxine sodium is typically administered orally or via injection, and it is known for its relatively low toxicity in animals when used at recommended dosages. The substance is soluble in water, which facilitates its use in formulations for animal health. Additionally, it has a long half-life, allowing for sustained therapeutic effects. However, its use is regulated, and it is important to adhere to withdrawal times before the slaughter of treated animals to ensure that drug residues do not enter the food supply. As with all antibiotics, there is a concern regarding the development of resistance, making responsible use critical in veterinary practices.
