Product Information

• Name: 2-Methylbenzamide
• Synonyms: 2-Toluamide
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Methylbenzamide is an amide with a carbonyl group and an intramolecular hydrogen. It has been shown to have synergic effects when combined with piperonyl butoxide in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. This synergistic effect is due to the inhibition of inflammatory mediator release, which can be achieved by blocking the enzyme cyclooxygenase-2. 2-Methylbenzamide has also been shown to inhibit deuterium isotope effect in cd-1 mice, which could make it beneficial for patients who are unable to tolerate other drugs.
