Uses:

Tetramisole hydrochloride is an inhibitor of alkaline phosphatases, is a high purity antiparasitic. It is suitable for inhibition of various alkaline phosphatase (i.e., liver, kidney, placenta, bone and tumor)(Intestinal alkaline phosphatases are only slightly inhibited.). Tetramisole has biological response modifier with anthelmintic activity. Anthelmintic (nematodes); immunomodulator.

Tetramisole is an alkaline phosphatase inhibitor. It is a racemic mixture of (+) and (-) isomers. The (-) isomer (leva misole) accounts for most of the biological activity of tetramisole.
Tetramisole has been used to inhibit alkaline phosphatase in the effective range of 0.4 - 2 mM. Inhibition of intestinal alkaline phosphate requires higher concentrations. In addition to its use in enzyme and protein phosphorylation studies, tetramisole has been used to study membrane, tissue and animal systems.
Tetramisole is an anthelminthic agent used in veterinary applications to treat helminth or worm infections
