MedKoo Cat#: 561242 | Name: Alrestatin Sodium

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Alrestatin is a specific inhibitor of the aldose reductase enzyme. Alrestatin also inhibited gastric acid secretion and decreased the volume of gastric juice produced in pylorus-ligated rats. It is structurally related to tolrestat, another ARI that was briefly marketed before being withdrawn in 1997.
