Common Name |
Slifoxone
Description |
Slifoxone is only found in individuals that have used or taken this drug. It is a water-soluble slifone used as an antileprosy drug. It has been used with limited success in the treatment of dermatitis herpetiformis. Slifoxone is a competitive inhibitor of bacterial enzyme dihydropteroate synthetase. The normal substrate for the enzyme, para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) cannot bind as usual. The inhibited reaction is necessary in these organisms for the synthesis of folic acid.
