Trimpex-Trimethoprim is considered as the man-made synthetic
antibiotic drug which interferes with the generation of the
chemical which is required for bacteria and human cells to
produce proteins known as Tetrahydrofolic acid. This drug
reduces the production of Tetrahydrofolic acid by minimizing
enzyme which is responsible of making Tetrahydrofolic acid from
Di-hydrofolic acid. The drug slows down the bacterial enzyme
more than the corresponding human enzyme so the drug has less
effect on the production of Tetrahydrofolic acid by humans.
Some of the other drugs are
cefradine,
marbofloxacin,
delorazepam
