Description and Uses

Furazolidone belongs to the group of nitro furans. This antimicrobal (antibacterial and antiprotozoal) agent is used in veterinary medicine both topically and orally, particularly in animal feed. Reactions have been reported in workers exposed to it by contact with animal feed. Cross reactions with other nitrofuran derivatives are rare.
