Tiazole

Active Ingredient(s): Tiazofurin
Category: Antifungal

Tiazofurin is a drug which acts as an inhibitor of the enzyme IMP dehydrogenase. Tiazofurin and its analogues were under investigation for potential use in the treatment of cancer,[1] though side effects such as pleuropericarditis and a flu-like syndrome precluded further development. They also show antiviral effects and may be reevaluated as potential options in the treatment of newly emerging viral diseases.[2] References .mw-parser-output .reflist{font-si... [wikipedia]
