Ormetoprim is an antibiotic used in veterinary medicine. Typically it is used in combination with sulfadimethoxine, and it is used in the poultry and aquaculture industries.
Ormetoprim, like other diaminopyrimidines such as trimethoprim, inhibits the reduction of dihydrofolic acid to tetrahydrofolic acid by bacterial cells.
