The hydroxyl group on α-hydroxy trimethoprim can be converted to an amide, which can be transformed into enalaprilat. This impurity also inhibits the production of glucose by cells in the pancreas and helps to control blood sugar levels in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2. The structure of α-hydroxy trimethoprim may also have reactivity with glutathione or cytochrome P450 enzymes.
