Abstract
Numerous studies have reported significant results regarding the efficacy of sulfonamides against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and various HIV strains. This scientific paper provides an overview of the progress made over a decade of sulfonamides against HIV-1 and mycobacteria and its development against extremely drug-resistant (XDR) and multidrug-resistant strains. The reviewed study offers novel insights into the structural design and structure-activity relationship (SAR) of sulfonamides that are effective and less toxic in combating HIV, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and multidrug resistance.
