Pyrimethamine is a medication used with leucovorin to treat toxoplasmosis and cystoisosporiasis. It is also used with dapsone as a second line option to prevent Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PCP) in people with HIV/AIDS. It was previously used for malaria but is no longer recommended due to resistance. Pyrimethamine is taken by mouth.
