Nicotinamide is a form of vitamin B3 that has been shown to inhibit the growth of Giardia lamblia trophozoites. Nicotinamide also inhibits the sirtuins and has been shown to inhibit cell cycle control in microorganisms. It inhibits transcriptional activity by competing with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide for binding sites on DNA and prevents the formation of nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide complexes, which are needed for DNA synthesis. Nicotinamide also binds to metronidazole, causing it to be inactive as an antimicrobial agent. The mechanism of action of nicotinamide may be due to its ability to bind and inactivate metronidazole, thereby preventing it from functioning as an anti-microbial agent.
