A patient taking SMZ/TMP asks the nurse what the name means. The nurse replies sulfamethoxazole is combined with trimethoprim in SMZ/TMP to help the drug effectiveness. How does this work?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: SMZ/TMP (sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim) is a combination antibiotic where the two drugs work synergistically to inhibit sequential steps in bacterial folate synthesis, enhancing antibacterial efficacy against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. Choice D correctly identifies this synergistic effect. Choice A is incorrect as neither drug is an anesthetic. Choice B is pharmacologically inaccurate, and Choice C misrepresents their mechanism, as they target bacterial metabolism, not excretion.
