The antihelminthic effect of the drug is manifested through the absorption of an enzyme necessary for the vital activity of parasites, in particular, it prevents the polymerization of the tubulin protein in helminths. In relation to protozoa, its action manifests itself in a different way: biochemical studies and studies using electron radiation have shown that the 5-nitro group of metronidazole and, to a lesser extent, hydrogenase reduces the amount of ferredoxin. In relation to protozoa, Nanazoxide acts as a toxic radical in the metabolism of carbohydrates. Its effectiveness against influenza A virus was also noted, in this case it prevents the introduction of a foreign protein into the host cell membrane.
