商品名：New Methylene Blue and generic brands
Methylene blue acts as a reducing agent to reduce methemoglobin to hemoglobin. The action of methylene blue is particularly important when it is used to convert methemoglobin to hemoglobin in erythrocytes. It is reduced to leucomethylene blue in the body by combining with reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) in the presence of NADPH reductase. Leucomethylene blue then transfers an electron to reduce methemoglobin to hemoblobin. Methemoglobin occurs as the result of oxidative damage to hemoglobin, and methylene blue has been used as an antidote for intoxication. Sources of intoxication in animals that cause methemoglobinemia include exposure to nitrate, nitrite, or chlorate in ruminants; acetaminophen and naphthalene (mothballs) in cats (and occasionally dogs); and lo
Methylene blue is used to treat methemoglobinemia caused by chlorate and nitrate toxicosis. It also has been used to treat cyanide toxicosis.
