Antibiotic resistance has been growing at an alarming rate and consequently the activity of antibiotics against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria has dropped dramatically day by day. In this sense there is a strong need to synthesis new substances that not only have good spectrum of activity, but having new mechanisms of action. Inorganic compounds particularly metal complexes have played an important role in the development of new metal based drugs. A significantly rising interest in the design of metal complexes as drugs and diagnostic agents is currently observed in the area of scientific inquiry, specifically termed medicinal inorganic chemistry. In this review we have focused on research undertaken over the past few decades which has sought to possess preclinical pharmacological screenings like anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-tuberculosis, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, DNA- interaction and anti-tumor action of isoniazid containing synthetic metal complexes. |
