A mixture of the antibiotics sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprom
Cotrimoxazole is a mixture of the antibiotics sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim .1,2 It is bactericidal against 12 patient-derived community-acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains when used at a concentration of 0.05 mg/L.2 Cotrimoxazole (240 mg/kg) prevents lung and spleen bacterial colonization in a mouse model of inhaled B. mallei infection, but does not eradicate infection when administered post B. mallei exposure in the same model.3 It also resolves cutaneous tail lesions in a mouse model of S. xylosus infection.4 Formulations containing cotrimoxazole have been used in the treatment of MRSA infections and the prevention of glanders disease in human and veterinary medicine, respectively.
