Composition:
Each 1 ml contains:
-Sulphadiazine sodium     218.45 mg
-Trimethoprim                    40 mg

Properties:
Theracanzan Oral Solution is a combination of trimethoprim and sulphadiazine. The action of this combination proved to be bactericidal, whereas the components separately were only bacteriostatic in action.
-Sulfadiazine (SDZ) acts as anti-metabolite by inhibiting the incorporation of para- aminobenzoic acid (PABA) into folic acid.
-Trimethoprim (TMP) inhibits the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) which converts dihydrofolic acid into   tetrahydrofolic acid (THFA).
-SDZ/TMP combination is bactericidal, inhibiting sequential steps in the synthesis of purines, which are required for DNA synthesis. This double blockade mode of action leads to broad bactericidal action.
Theracanzan Oral Solution has a strong bactericidal action against a wide range of Gram positive and Gram-negative aerobic bacteria, a large proportion of anaerobic bacteria, Chlamydia and protozoa.
