Uridine is not an established therapeutic drug class; rather, it is an endogenous pyrimidine nucleoside, with prodrug formulations such as uridine triacetate officially categorized by the FDA as pyrimidine analogs.
Within therapeutic medicine, it serves primarily as an essential substrate in pyrimidine replacement therapy or as a cytoprotective antidote.
In clinical oncology, it competes with toxic fluorouracil metabolites to attenuate life-threatening fluorouracil or capecitabine toxicity, and in medical genetics, it restores normal cellular pyrimidine pools to treat hereditary orotic aciduria.
