It also partially inhibited the effect of the drugs in combination. 2. Folic acid incompletely antagonized the effect of sulfadiazine, but did not antagonize the effect of pyrimethamine. It also had no effect upon the drugs when given in combination. 3. Folinic acid did not materially antagonize the action of the combination of pyrimethamine and sulfadiazine or of the drugs individually.Read More
