CAS 5714-73-8
:Methenamine hippurate
Description:
Methenamine hippurate, with the CAS number 5714-73-8, is a chemical compound that serves primarily as a urinary antiseptic. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water, making it suitable for use in various pharmaceutical formulations. The compound is formed from the reaction of methenamine and hippuric acid, which contributes to its therapeutic properties. Methenamine hippurate is known for its ability to release formaldehyde in acidic urine, which exerts antimicrobial effects against a range of pathogens, particularly in the urinary tract. This characteristic makes it useful in the treatment and prevention of urinary tract infections. Additionally, it is generally well-tolerated, although some individuals may experience side effects such as gastrointestinal disturbances. Its use is often accompanied by adequate hydration to ensure effective excretion and minimize potential toxicity. Overall, methenamine hippurate is an important agent in urology, providing a non-antibiotic option for managing urinary infections.

CAS:Controlled Product<p>Methenamine hippurate is a drug that has been used in the treatment of urinary tract infections. It is also used to prevent recurrence of these infections. Methenamine hippurate works by releasing formaldehyde, which inhibits the growth of bacteria by affecting their cell membrane. The release of formaldehyde is dependent on the concentration of methenamine and the pH, with a pH range from 7.0 to 8.5 being most effective for inhibiting bacterial growth. The release of formaldehyde can be inhibited by adding an acid to the urine sample or by adding hippurate to methenamine hippurate. Methenamine hippurate may cause drug interactions with other drugs that are eliminated through the kidneys, such as acetaminophen, sulfonamides, and indomethacin. This drug also has been shown to have therapeutic effects on choroidal neovascularization and geriatric patients with urinary tract infections.!--<br>END--></p>Formula:C6H12N4·C9H9NO3Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:White PowderMolecular weight:319.36 g/mol
