Mechanism of Action of Bactrim DS Tablet
Mechaniones of the blood and respiratory tracts following exposure to Bactrim DS Tablet were well-documented as being involved in the prevention of a wide range of bacterial infections. Bactrim DS Tablet prevents bacterial protein synthesis by interfering with the actions of a chemical that is produced by bacteria. This leads to the release of bacteria from the cell wall and subsequent bacterial growth. It also helps prevent the spread of germs into the respiratory tracts. The action of Bactrim DS Tablet is believed to be the result of the combination of its effects on trimethoprim's primary component sulfamethoxazole. When this chemical is present in concentrations higher than that which inhibits bacterial protein synthesis, it forms a complex with trimethoprim's active ingredient sulfamethoxazole. A patient with a sulfamethoxazole concentration greater than 12.5 µM is unlikely to be taking Bactrim DS Tablet. The mechanism of action of Bactrim DS Tablet has been speculated for one Bactrim tablet that was shown to decrease the concentrations of two antibiotics, erythromycin and clarithromycin. However, two Bactrim DS Tablet's have been shown to increase the concentrations of erythromycin and clarithromycin.
