Using sulfamethoxazole and potassium aminobenzoate is not recommended. Call your doctor if you notice that sulfamethoxazole is not working or if your infection worsens.

Professional:

CONTRAINDICATED: Potassium aminobenzoate may inactivate antibacterial sulfonamides. Sulfonamides are structural analogues and competitive inhibitors of para-aminobenzoic acid, which is required by bacterial folic acid synthesis. Therefore, sufficient concentrations of potassium para-aminobenzoate may antagonize the antibacterial effects of sulfonamides.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer considers concomitant use contraindicated.
