Septran Ds Suspension 80/400mg 50ml
Description
Septran DS Suspension 80/400mg 50ml
Septran DS Suspension 80/400mg 50ml is a combination oral suspension formulated with Trimethoprim 80mg and Sulfamethoxazole 400mg (Co-trimoxazole DS) per 5ml dose. It is presented as a liquid suspension suitable for paediatric administration.
Sulfamethoxazole inhibits the incorporation of para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) into dihydropteroate during bacterial folic acid synthesis, resulting in bacteriostasis. Trimethoprim complements this action by reversibly inhibiting bacterial dihydrofolate reductase, blocking the conversion of dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate — a step essential for nucleic acid production in bacteria.
This dual mechanism provides broad-spectrum antibacterial coverage. Septran DS Suspension is a prescription medicine; it should be dispensed and used only under the direction of a qualified healthcare professional.
