Methenamine Hippurate (branded as Altaromin©) have gained marketing approval in France

EQL's key product methenamine hippurate has now gained marketing approval by the Health Authorities in France, where it is to be provided to patients by EQL's license partner Laboratoires Majorelle under the EQL owned brand Altaromin©.

An alternative which doesn’t increase the risk to develop antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
