Description
Sodium sulfacetamide is a sulfonamide with antibacterial activity while sulfur acts as a keratolytic agent. Chemically sodium sulfacetamide is N-[(4-aminophenyl) sulfonyl]-acetamide, monosodium salt, monohydrate. The structural formula is:
Each gram of SE 10-5 SS (sodium sulfacetamide USP 10% and sulfur USP 5%) Cream contains: Active: Sodium Sulfacetamide 10% (100 mg) and Sulfur 5% (50 mg). Inactive: Benzyl Alcohol, Emulsifying Wax, Fragrance, Hamaelis virginiana (Witch Hazel) Distillate, Kaolin, Propanediol, Purified Water, Quillaja (Quillaia) saponaria Extract, Silicon Dioxide, Sodium Hydroxide, and Sodium Thiosulfate.
Clinical pharmacology
The most widely accepted mechanism of action of sulfonamides is the Woods-Fildes theory, which is based on the fact that sulfonamides act as competitive antagonists to para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), an essential component for bacterial growth. While absorption through intact skin has not been determined, sodium sulfacetamide is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract when taken orally and excreted in the urine, largely unchanged. The biological half-life has variously been reported as 7 to 12.8 hours. The exact mode of action of sulfur in the treatment of acne is unknown, but it has been reported that it inhibits the growth of Propionibacterium acnes and the formation of free fatty acids.
Contraindications
SE 10-5 SS (sodium sulfacetamide 10% and sulfur 5%) Cream is contraindicated for use by patients having known hypersensitivity to sulfonamides, sulfur or any other component of this preparation. SE 10-5 SS (sodium sulfacetamide 10% and sulfur 5%) Cream is not to be used by patients with kidney disease.
