Chemical structure
Existing / approved use
Documented · FDA, WHO, ChEMBLNo approved indication recorded
ChEMBL records no approved indication for Tannic Acid. Its therapeutic class is shown instead.
- Anti-infective classification
- Neither a WHO ATC code nor an FDA pharmacologic class was found for it, so whether it is already an antimicrobial is not established. It needs review and is not counted as a repurposing candidate.
Repurposing investigation
Tannic Acid reaches ≥40% AI-predicted activity against MRSA, but no WHO ATC code or FDA pharmacologic class says whether it is already an antimicrobial. It needs review, so it is not counted among the repurposing candidates.

AutoDock Vina, one experimentally solved protein per pathogen. This project’s screening target is -7.0 kcal/mol, its own mark rather than a universal cutoff. A docking score is a structural hypothesis, not proof of binding, and requires experimental validation.
Other medicines to investigate
AI prediction · nothing measuredOther repurposing candidates: approved medicines besides Tannic Acid with AI-predicted activity ≥40% against the chosen pathogen, leaving out existing antimicrobials. They are computational candidates for further investigation, not alternatives and not recommendations.
Sorted by AI-predicted activity, high to low. The order is not a ranking of which medicine is better.
