trimethoprim and Anemia, Macrocytic

trimethoprim has been researched along with Anemia, Macrocytic in 29 studies

Trimethoprim: A pyrimidine inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase, it is an antibacterial related to PYRIMETHAMINE. It is potentiated by SULFONAMIDES and the TRIMETHOPRIM, SULFAMETHOXAZOLE DRUG COMBINATION is the form most often used. It is sometimes used alone as an antimalarial. TRIMETHOPRIM RESISTANCE has been reported.
trimethoprim : An aminopyrimidine antibiotic whose structure consists of pyrimidine 2,4-diamine and 1,2,3-trimethoxybenzene moieties linked by a methylene bridge.

Anemia, Macrocytic: Anemia characterized by larger than normal erythrocytes, increased mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and increased mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Trimethoprim seems not to be a safe form of therapy in patients with a megaloblastic process; many of the toxic reactions reported with this drug may be on the basis of an unrecognized megaloblastic form of haemopoiesis."1.25Toxicity of trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole in patients with megaloblastic haemopoiesis. ( Chanarin, I; England, JM, 1972)
