Methdilazine hydrochloride 

Methdilazine hydrochloride is an orally active antibiotic (histamine antagonist). Methdilazine hydrochloride can inhibit various mycobacterium with MIC values at 5-15 μg/mL in vitro and in vivo, which can be used for the research of infectious diseases^[1][2].

Methdilazine hydrochloride (0-20 μg/mL approximately, 18 h) inhibits kinds of mycobacterium with MIC values ranging from 5 μg/mL to 15 μg/mL^[1].
