Formamidine acetate is an anti-tuberculosis drug that belongs to the class of aminoglycosides. It has been shown to have a potent cytotoxic effect on malignant brain cells in vitro. It inhibits bacterial growth by binding to DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, thereby preventing transcription and replication. The high frequency of human activity has been shown using a patch-clamp technique on human erythrocytes. This active form is metabolized through a number of metabolic transformations, including hydrolysis by esterases or glucuronidases, oxidation by cytochrome P450 enzymes, reduction by glutathione reductase, or conjugation with glucuronic acid
