Sulfamethoxazole
Combined with trimethoprim (as co-trimoxazole), this sulfonamide antibiotic blocks two sequential steps in bacterial folate synthesis, making the combination highly effective against a wide range of bacterial and protozoal infections. It is a first-line treatment for urinary tract infections, Pneumocystis pneumonia in immunocompromised patients, and several other conditions.
