Targets:
Trihexyphenidyl (Artane, Apo-Trihex, Parkin, Pacitane), also known as benzhexol and trihex has been in clinical usage for decades.It is an anticholinergic used in the symptomatic treatment of all etiologic groups of parkinsonism and drug induced extrapyramidal reactions (except tardive dyskinesia). Trihexyphenidyl possesses both anticholinergic and antihistaminic effects, although only the former has been established as therapeutically significant in the management of parkinsonism. Trihexyphenidyl is a selective M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist. It is able to discriminate between the M1 (cortical or neuronal) and the peripheral muscarinic subtypes (cardiac and glandular). Trihexyphenidyl partially blocks cholinergic activity in the CNS, which is responsible for the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. It is also thought to increase the availability of dopamine, a brain chemical that is critical in the initiation and smooth control of voluntary muscle movement. Trihexyphenidyl is indicated for the treatment of parkinson's disease and extrapyramidal reactions caused by drugs.

Crotamiton is a scabicidal and antipruritic agent available as a cream or lotion for topical use. The drug was approved by FDA for the treatment of scabies and pruritic skin. Crotamiton is a mixture of the cis and trans isomers of N-ethyl-N-(o-methylphenyl)-2butenamide. Although the activity of crotamiton was shown both in vitro and in vivo, the mechanism of its action is still unknown.

Conditions:
Mechlorethamine also known as mustine, brand name MUSTARGEN administered intravenously is the prototype anticancer chemotherapeutic drug, is indicated for the palliative treatment of Hodgkin's disease (Stages III and IV), lymphosarcoma, chronic myelocytic or chronic lymphocytic leukemia, polycythemia vera, mycosis fungoides, and bronchogenic carcinoma. In 2013 was approved orphan drug Valchlor (mechlorethamine) gel for the topical treatment of stage IA and IB mycosis fungoides-type cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) in patients who have received prior skin-directed therapy. Mechlorethamine belongs to the group of nitrogen mustard alkylating agents. Alkylating agents work by three different mechanisms: attachment of alkyl groups to DNA bases, resulting in the DNA being fragmented by repair enzymes in their attempts to replace the alkylated bases, 2) DNA damage via the formation of cross-links (bonds between atoms in the DNA) which prevents DNA from being separated for synthesis or transcription, and 3) the induction of mispairing of the nucleotides leading to mutations all of which achieve the same end result - disruption of DNA function and cell death.

Class (Stereo):

Targets:
Conditions:
Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine. Chlorpheniramine binds to the histamine H1 receptor. This blocks the action of endogenous histamine, which subsequently leads to temporary relief of the negative symptoms brought on by histamine. Chlorpheniramine is used for relieving symptoms of sinus congestion, sinus pressure, runny nose, watery eyes, itching of the nose and throat, and sneezing due to upper respiratory infections (eg, colds), allergies, and hay fever. In addition to being a histamine H1 receptor (HRH1) antagonist, chlorphenamine has been shown to work as a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor or SNRI.

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)
Targets:
Conditions:
Propylhexedrine is considered to be an agonist of alpha-adrenergic receptors. It is effective as a topical vasoconstrictor. The primary medicinal use of Benzedrex (Propylhexedrine inhaler) propylhexedrine is temporary symptomatic relief of nasal decongestion due to colds, allergies and allergic rhinitis. Structurally and pharmacologically related to amphetamine.Exact mechanism of action unknown but thought to be similar to amphetamine. When used as a nasal inhaler for this indication, propylhexedrine reduces nasal airway resistance without producing rebound congestion. Abuse does not occur by nasal inhalation; however, a small amount of abuse of the propylhexedrine containing nasal inhalers occurs by oral ingestion of the contents of the inhaler or by intravenous injection. Propylhexedrine is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant of low abuse potential, a stimulant of low preference for stimulant abusers compared with amphetamine, methylphenidate, phenmetrazine.

Chlorcyclizine is a first generation phenylpiperazine class antihistamine used to treat urticaria, rhinitis, pruritus, and other allergy symptoms. Chlorcyclizine also has some local anesthetic, anticholinergic, and antiserotonergic properties, and can be used as an antiemetic. Chlorcyclizine temporarily relieves the symptoms due to hay fever or other upper respiratory allergies. It has also being shown to possess in vitro and in vivo activity against hepatitis C virus.

Piridocaine is a piperidyl propanol ester of orthoaminobenzoic acid. The toxicity of this drug resembles that of procaine. It differs from procaine in that the minimum anesthetic dose is smaller, the minimal lethal dose larger, and duration of anesthesia longer. Subarachnoid piridocaine with and without epinephrine or ephedrine offers a simple and dependable means of obtaining any degree or extent of analgesia up to the third thoracic nerves without profound or widespread motor paralysis. The most promising clinical field of usefulness for piridocaine is obstetrics.
