CAS 74536-44-0: Metadoxine
Description:Metadoxine, with the CAS number 74536-44-0, is a chemical compound primarily recognized for its use in the treatment of alcohol intoxication and related disorders. It is a combination of pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and a derivative of the amino acid glycine, which enhances its pharmacological properties. Metadoxine is known for its ability to accelerate the elimination of ethanol from the body and to mitigate the effects of alcohol on the central nervous system. The compound exhibits a favorable safety profile and is generally well-tolerated in clinical settings. Its mechanism of action involves the modulation of neurotransmitter systems and the enhancement of liver function, promoting detoxification processes. Additionally, Metadoxine has been studied for its potential neuroprotective effects and its role in improving cognitive function in individuals with alcohol-related impairments. Overall, Metadoxine represents a unique therapeutic agent with specific applications in managing alcohol-related conditions, although further research is ongoing to fully elucidate its broader pharmacological effects.
