CAS 500-92-5
:Proguanil
Description:
Proguanil, with the CAS number 500-92-5, is an antimalarial medication primarily used in the prevention and treatment of malaria. It is a synthetic compound belonging to the biguanide class of drugs. Proguanil acts as a prodrug, which means it is metabolized in the body to its active form, cycloguanil, that inhibits the dihydrofolate reductase enzyme in the malaria parasite, disrupting folate synthesis and ultimately hindering its growth and reproduction. The substance is typically administered orally and is known for its relatively low toxicity and good tolerability in humans. Proguanil is often used in combination with other antimalarial agents, such as atovaquone, to enhance efficacy and reduce the risk of resistance. In terms of physical properties, proguanil is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and has a moderate molecular weight. Its pharmacokinetics include rapid absorption and a half-life that supports once-daily dosing, making it a convenient option for malaria prophylaxis.

CAS:<p>Proguanil is a drug that belongs to the class of p450 inhibitors. It is used to prevent and treat malaria, especially in areas where resistance to chloroquine has emerged. Proguanil inhibits microbial growth by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme p450, which is involved in the synthesis of cholesterol and other sterols. This inhibition prevents the production of these compounds, which are necessary for bacterial cell walls. Proguanil also blocks lymphocyte transformation and polymerase chain reactions (PCR) by binding to DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Proguanil has been shown to be effective against infectious diseases such as malaria, infectious diarrhoea, and typhoid fever. The drug has been shown to have pharmacokinetic properties that differ depending on the dose and duration of treatment, with a high clearance rate at low doses but a lower clearance rate at higher doses. Proguanil does not bind well to albumin or human erythrocytes,</p>Formula:C11H16ClN5Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:SolidMolecular weight:253.73 g/mol
