Bactrim is sulfamethoxazole+trimethoprim for humans. The
equivalent horse product would be Tribissen (Sulfadiazine+Trimethoprin) (Schering
Plough).

I'd be very careful in using Bactrim on horses.
It hasn't been cleared by the regulating agencies and one of the horses in my
barn almost died from an allergic reaction to it. I think there are a lot
of other antibiotics out there that work better. The allergic reaction
theme with horses seems to be too often and pretty severe.
