Active Ingredient & Action
POLYMYXIN B SULFATE and TRIMETHOPRIM (TRIMETHOPRIM SULFATE) are the active ingredients in SANDOZ POLYTRIMETHOPRIM. POLYMYXIN B SULFATE works by disrupting the bacterial cell membrane, ultimately leading to the death of the bacterial cell. TRIMETHOPRIM (TRIMETHOPRIM SULFATE) inhibits the synthesis of tetrahydrofolic acid, a compound necessary for bacterial DNA synthesis. This dual mechanism of action provides a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity.
