Sulfapyridine is a competitive inhibitor of the bacterial enzyme dihydropteroate synthetase. It was used to treat of infections in humans in particular, dermatitis herpetiformis (Duhring's disease), a skin problem, but that usage was discontinued by manufacturer. It is also known, that sulfapyridine is one of the two primary metabolite of the anti-inflammatory drug salicylazosulfapyridine.

Sample Use Guides
For dermatitis herpetiformis: adults and adolescents: 250 milligrams to 1 gram four times a day until improvement occurs. After improvement has occurred, the dose should then be reduced by 250 to 500 milligrams every three days until there are no symptoms; that dose should be taken once daily. Children: use is not recommended, because children usually do not get this condition.
