Sulfamethoxazole is primarily renally excreted via glomerular filtration and tubular secretion. [8] About 20% of the sulfamethoxazole in urine is the unchanged drug, about 15–20% is the N-glucuronide conjugate, and about 50–70 % is the acetylated metabolite. [11] Sulfamethoxazole is also excreted in human milk. [8]
