Nifurmazole, a 5-nitrofuran derivative, is an antibacterial agent. It was used for controlling Salmonella choleraesuis in swine. The mode of action of 5-nitrofuran analogues is based on red-ox biotransformation. Nifurmazole is active against Trypanosoma equiperdum, Schizotrypanum cruzi and Trypanosoma gambiense. Nifurmazole was shown to be somewhat effective againstT. cruzi infection in mice.
