Cyanamide is an organic compound with the formula CN2H2. It is used in agriculture as a plant growth regulator to break bud dormancy and stimulate more uniform and earlier bud break. Cyanamide is an inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenase. Administration of citrated calcium cyanamide sensitizes individuals to the action of alcohol and is used for the treatment of chronic alcoholism.
