Pyritidium (also known as Prothidium) is a Phenanthridinium derivative with powerful prophylactic activity against cattle trypanosomiasis. Prothidium dibromide was used for the treatment of sleeping sickness in man and nagana in cattle. Pyritidium is thought to have antiviral properties and to interfere with the synthesis of nucleic acids in a variety of organisms.
