Meralluride is a mercurial diuretic.
In a 1963 study done with rats, it was thought to act on the proximal tubules of the kidneys. Studies in the late 1970s showed the compound had antimicrobial effect against Proteus bacteria responsible for urinary tract infections, with varying degrees of effectiveness based on the substances mixed with the drug.
