Synonyms: FUT-175; Mesilato de nafamostat; Nafamostat, Mésilate de; Nafamostat Mesylate naphthyl p-guanidinobenzoate dimethanesulfonate.
Cyrillic synonym: Нафамостата Мезилат.
Chemical information
Chemical formula: C21H25N5O8S2 = 539.6.
CAS — 81525-10-2 (nafamostat); 82956-11-4 (nafamostat mesilate).
Profile
Like aprotinin nafamostat is a proteolytic enzyme inhibitor. The mesilate is used in the treatment of acute pancreatitis and disseminated intravascular coagulation, and as an anticoagulant in haemodialysis. Hyperkalaemia has been reported.
