Description and Uses

Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride is a salt and amine form of pyridoxamine, which belongs to the family of vitamin B6 compounds. Pyridoxamine occurs naturally in animal-based food products. Its deficiency in humans potentially causes sideroblastic anemia, weakness, insomnia, and neurological disorders. It has been reported to be effective against diabetic nephropathy. Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride acts as a catalyst in the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins in the body, thereby assisting in maintaining energy balance in kidney disease patients.

Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride (Pyridorin, NephroGenex, 524-36-7) inhibits formation of advanced glycation end products and scavenges reactive oxygen species and toxic carbonyls. Whether these effects translate into kidney protection is unknown, although a year-long study of the effects of pyridoxamine dihydrochlo-ride in patients with type 2 diabetes and proteinuria failed to show a difference in kidney function decline with pyri-doxamine dihydrochloride in daily doses of 300 or 600 mg versus placebo treatment.
