Dimethyldisulfanilamide (also known by the brand name Uliron) is a historical sulfonamide antibiotic introduced in 1938 by IG Farben, commonly used during the late 1930s and early 1940s to treat gonorrhea, particularly when earlier sulfonamides like Prontosil were ineffective.^[1] It was highly regarded during that period for its rapid action in treating gonorrhea and soft chancre (ulcus molle).^[2]
