E4837New Trimethoprim (lactate) Trimethoprim (lactate) is an antifolate antibacterial agent that inhibits bacterial dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), an essential enzyme responsible for the production of tetrahydrofolic acid (THF). By blocking this enzyme, trimethoprim prevents the synthesis of bacterial DNA, hindering bacterial survival. It is a standard antibiotic for treating urinary tract infections (UTIs).
S3082New Proguanil HCl(Atovaquone) Proguanil hydrochloride(Chloroguanil, Chlorguanide hydrochloride), an antimalarial proagent acts as an inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). Proguanil acts as a biguanide to enhance the Atovaquone effect.
