Acetarsol (N-acetyl-4-hydroxy-m-arsanilic acid) is an organoarsenic compound previously used as an anti-infective agent, particularly in the treatment of protozoal infections such as trichomoniasis and amoebiasis. It is rarely used today and is not approved in many countries due to safety concerns regarding arsenic compounds.
