Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects Click here for help
Sulfonamides are structural analogues of 4-aminobenzoic acid (pABA) an intermediate in the de novo synthesis of folate by some prokaryotes, lower eukaryotes and plants [2]. The antibacterial MMOA is competitive inhibition of bacterial dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS) resulting in a block of folate biosynthesis [1].
