Metabolite Identification
Common NameMetenamine
DescriptionMetenamine, also known as hexamine or HMT, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 1,3,5-triazinanes. These are triazinanes having three nitrogen ring atoms at the 1-, 3-, and 5- positions. Metenamine is a drug which is used for prophylactic or suppressive treatment of frequently recurring urinary tract infections when long-term therapy is considered necessary. this drug is not used to treat infection and should only be used after appropriate eradication of infection with antimicrobial agents. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on Metenamine.
