methenamine and Maxillary Sinusitis

methenamine has been researched along with Maxillary Sinusitis in 2 studies

Methenamine: An anti-infective agent most commonly used in the treatment of urinary tract infections. Its anti-infective action derives from the slow release of formaldehyde by hydrolysis at acidic pH. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p173)
hexamethylenetetramine : A polycyclic cage that is adamantane in which the carbon atoms at positions 1, 3, 5 and 7 are replaced by nitrogen atoms.

Maxillary Sinusitis: Inflammation of the NASAL MUCOSA in the MAXILLARY SINUS. In many cases, it is caused by an infection of the bacteria HAEMOPHILUS INFLUENZAE; STREPTOCOCCUS PNEUMONIAE; or STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Noninvasive aspergillosis of the maxillary sinus is frequently associated with extrusion of root canal cements into the sinus, and it has been suggested that zinc oxide-based materials might promote infection because zinc is a growth factor for Aspergillus sp."3.69Zinc as a growth factor for Aspergillus sp. and the antifungal effects of root canal sealants. ( Odell, E; Pertl, C, 1995)
