PHARMACODYNAMICS
Sulfacetamide is a sulfonamide antibiotic with bacteriostatic actions and broad-spectrum activity against most gram-positive and many gram-negative organisms. However, many strains of an individual species may be resistant. Sulfonamides inhibit multiplication of bacteria by acting as competitive inhibitors of p-aminobenzoic acid in the folic acid metabolism cycle. Bacterial sensitivity is the same for the various sulfonamides, and resistance to one sulfonamide indicates resistance to all. Most sulfonamides are readily absorbed orally. However, parenteral administration is difficult, since the soluble sulfonamide salts are highly alkaline and irritating to the tissues. The sulfonamides are widely distributed throughout all tissues. High levels are achieved in pleural, peritoneal, synovial, and ocular fluids. Although these drugs are no longer used to treat meningitis, CSF levels are high in meningeal infections. Their antibacterial action is inhibited by pus.
DESCRIPTION
Sulfacetamide is a sulfonamide antibacterial compound that has been in clinical use since the 1940s . It inhibits the bacterial dihydropteroate synthase pathway which generates the folic acid that is essential for bacterial growth.

DESCRIPTION
Sulfacetamide is a sulfonamide antibiotic as a dihydropteroate Synthase inhibitor. It is a competitive inhibitor of bacterial para-aminobenzoic acid, which is required for bacterial synthesis of folic acid. Sulfacetamide is used for the treatment of skin infections and urinary tract infections. It is also used to treat acne and seborrheic dermatitis.

DESCRIPTION
Sulfacetamide is a corticosteroid used to treat inflammatory ocular conditions and acne vulgaris. It is used for the treatment of bacterial vaginitis, keratitis, acute conjunctivitis, and blepharitis.
(Enamine Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION
Sulfacetamide (NSC-63871) is used to treat blepharitis or conjunctivitis (in eye-drop solution) by limiting the presence of folic acid which bacteria need to survive. sulfacetamide may serve as a treatment for mild forms of hidradenitis suppurativa. It is also used to control acne.
