Description:Cilastatin is a renal dehydropeptidase inhibitor, which is a compound sourced from synthetic processes designed to augment the pharmacokinetic profile of certain beta-lactam antibiotics. Its primary mode of action is to inhibit the enzyme dehydropeptidase I (DHP-I), located in the renal brush border. This enzyme typically degrades antibiotics, like imipenem, within the renal tubules. By inhibiting DHP-I, cilastatin prevents the inactivation of these antibiotics, thereby prolonging their active presence in the body and enhancing their antimicrobial efficacy.
