Fomepizole (Standard)
Fomepizole (Standard) is the analytical standard of Fomepizole. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Fomepizole (4-Methylpyrazole) is a potent cytochrome P450 (CYP2E1) inhibitor. Fomepizole is a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase. Fomepizole blocks further conversion of methanol and ethylene glycol to toxic metabolites. Fomepizole has the potential for an antidote for ethylene glycol or methanol poisoning.
