Cas no 599-79-1 (Sulfasalazine)

Sulfasalazine is a sulfonamide-derived compound combining 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) and sulfapyridine, linked via an azo bond. It is primarily used as an anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive agent, particularly in the management of inflammatory bowel diseases (e.g., ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease) and rheumatoid arthritis. Its mechanism involves bacterial cleavage of the azo bond in the colon, releasing active 5-ASA locally to reduce inflammation, while sulfapyridine contributes systemic effects. Key advantages include targeted colonic delivery, proven efficacy in chronic inflammatory conditions, and a well-established safety profile with decades of clinical use. Sulfasalazine also exhibits cost-effectiveness compared to newer biologics, making it a first-line option in certain therapeutic regimens.
