| Albon (Sulfadimethoxine) has been demonstrated clinically or in the laboratory to be effective against a variety of organisms, such as streptococci, klebsiella, proteus, shigella, staphylococci, escherichia, and salmonella.1,2 These organisms have been demonstrated in respiratory, genitourinary, enteric, and soft tissue infections of dogs and cats.
The systemic sulfonamides which include sulfadimethoxine are bacteriostatic agents. Sulfonamides competitively inhibit bacterial synthesis of folic acid (pterolyglutamic acid) from para-aminobenzoic acid. Mammalian cells are capable of utilizing folic acid in the presence of sulfonamides.
INDICATIONS: Albon is indicated for the treatment of a wide range of respiratory, genitourinary tract, enteric, and soft tissue infections. For example: tonsillitis, pustular dermatitis, pharyngitis, anal gland infections, bronchitis, abscesses, pneumonia, wound infections, cystitis, bacterial enteritis, nephritis, canine salmonellosis, metritis, bacterial enteritis associated with coccidiosis in dogs, pyometra when caused by streptococci, staphylococci, escherichia, salmonella, klebsiella, proteus or shigella organisms, sensitive to sulfadimethoxine.
