Menbutone (Cat No.: I003304), also known as anabolic acid, is a derivative of hydroxybutyric acid. It functions as a choleretic agent, stimulating the secretion of bile. Additionally, it exhibits activity as trypsinogen and pepsinogen, potentially affecting digestive processes. Menbutone’s choleretic properties make it useful in promoting the flow of bile and aiding in the digestion of fats. Its mechanism of action and potential therapeutic applications have been studied in the context of hepatic and gastrointestinal disorders.
