Product Information
General Information:
Sulfadiazine and Pyrimethamine tablets are antimalarial agents. The combination of Sulfadiazine and Pyrimethamine tablets are manufactured to treat malaria, as they inhibit the production of enzymes involved in the synthesis of folic acid within the parasites. Either drug by itself is only moderately effective in treating malaria, because the parasite Plasmodium falciparum may be able to use exogenous folic acid, however, in combination, the two substances have a synergistic effect which disrupts that ability.
Side Effects:
As with all pharmaceuticals, some unwanted effects can occur from the use of Sulfadiazine and Pyrimethamine tablets. Always consult a doctor or health care professional for medical advice before use. Common side effects include, but may not be limited to nausea, headache, anorexia, vomiting. Seek medical attention if the following develop: central nervous system stimulation, convulsion, megaloblastic anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, glossitis, and crystalluria.
For a comprehensive list of all possible effects, consult your doctor.
If any symptom persists or gets worse, or you notice any other symptom, then please call your doctor immediately.
