Sulfafurazole (also known as sulfisoxazole) is a sulfonamide antibacterial drug that inhibits bacterial folic acid synthesis. It has been used primarily to treat urinary tract infections and other susceptible bacterial infections. Its clinical use has declined in many countries due to the availability of safer or more effective agents, and it is not widely used today.
