Description

2-Methylnicotinamide is an amide that is used to treat inflammatory bowel disease. It inhibits the production of glutamate and aspartate, which are neurotransmitters that are involved in the inflammation process. 2-Methylnicotinamide has been shown to have a protective effect on renal function by reducing blood flow to the kidneys, thereby decreasing renal damage caused by glutamate and aspartate. This drug also has anticancer properties, which may be due to its ability to inhibit viral replication and reduce the incidence of cancer in animals. 2-Methylnicotinamide has not yet been tested on humans, but it is thought to be safe for use in pharmaceutical dosages.
