trimethoprim has been researched along with Otitis Media with Effusion in 17 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.

"78 pediatric patients affected by acute otitis media were selected and randomized into two balanced groups of treatment: brodimoprim, at the dosage of 200 mg once-a-day on the first day and of 100 mg once-a-day on the following days, and cefaclor at a dosage of 40 mg/Kg/day in three doses."9.07Efficacy and tolerability of brodimoprim in bacterial otitis media in children.

"Penetration into the middle ear of four antibiotics commonly used in treatment of otitis media was studied by administering a single oral dose of amoxicillin, cefaclor, erythromycin-sulfisoxazole, or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole to 83 children with chronic serous otitis media."7.66Penetration of amoxicillin, cefaclor, erythromycin-sulfisoxazole, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole into the middle ear fluid of patients with chronic serous otitis media.
