Description Chemical Properties Product Documents

Metacetamol is a derivative of acetaminophen .1,2,3 Unlike acetaminophen, metacetamol is not cytotoxic to isolated mouse hepatocytes (LC50 = >10 mM).1 However, it does induce necrosis and depletion of glutathione (GSH) in isolated human hepatocytes when used at a concentration of 10 mM.2 Metacetamol (900 mg/kg) does not induce hepatic necrosis in mice.3
