Product Information

• Name: 2-[(2-Bromophenyl)formamido]acetic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-[(2-Bromophenyl)formamido]acetic acid is a bile salt that is used to treat liver disease. It is a prodrug of taurocholic acid, which is a naturally occurring bile salt that is essential for the digestion of dietary fats. 2-[(2-Bromophenyl)formamido]acetic acid has been shown to have a constant rate of hydrolysis and can be used as an alternative to taurocholic acid in cases where the latter cannot be metabolized due to genetic defects or enzyme deficiencies. This drug also has the ability to neutralize staphylococcus by converting it into hippuric acid, which can then be excreted from the body via urine. 2-[(2-Bromophenyl)formamido]acetic acid does not undergo any reactions with other drugs, making it ideal for patients who are taking other medications for unrelated conditions.
