Introduction:
Agricultural chemicals are impacting health nowadays. Recently, promising synergistic antifungal interaction between tacrolimus and some azole compounds was studied.
Objective:
To determine ADME parameters, potential side effects of test substances to reduce time and resources in the future.
Methods:
All descriptors and molecular parameters were obtained by the protocols of SwissADME and ProTox II.
Results:
In the result, the following physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters were calculated.
Conclusion:
Studied triazoles 1 and 2 showed good ADME characteristics and promising toxicity levels suitable to be checked for in vitro toxicology in case of future advanced results in the agricultural field.
