Chemical compound
Benzamil or benzyl amiloride is a potent blocker of the ENaC channel[1] and also a sodium-calcium exchange blocker.[2][3] It is a potent analog of amiloride, and is marketed as the hydrochloride salt (benzamil hydrochloride). As amiloride, benzamil has been studied as a possible treatment for cystic fibrosis,[4] although with disappointing results.[5]
