Flupenthixol is a thioxanthene antipsychotic used in the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychoses, with the exception of mania and psychomotor hyperactivity due to an activating effect associated with this drug. It may also be employed as an antidepressant. Flupenthixol has a wide range of pharmacological actions. Flupenthixol blocks dopaminergic receptors, thus interfering with dopaminergic transmission in the brain. Flupenthixol also inhibits serotonin 5-HT, histamine H1, muscarinic and alpha-1 adrenergic receptors.

Flutazolam is a benzodiazepine derivative developed in Japan by Mitsui. The drug is marketed under the name Coreminal and used for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. The mechanism of flutazolam action is due to activation of GABA-A receptors as it has affinity to the benzodiazepine binding sites.

Flutoprazepam is a benzodiazepine derivative that reduce anxiety, stress, depression, fatigability and sleep disorders in patients with neurosis and psychosomatic disorders by binding to GABA-A receptor and modulating its activity.
Chlorotheophylline (8-Chlorotheophylline) is a stimulant drug of the xanthine chemical class, with physiological effects similar to caffeine. Its main use is in combination with Diphenhydramine as the antiemetic drug Dimenhydrinate (marketed as Draminate, Dramamine, Detensor and Gravol among others). Dimenhydrinate is primarily used to treat nausea, vomiting, and dizziness caused by motion sickness.The stimulant properties of 8-chlorotheophylline are thought to ward off the drowsiness caused by diphenhydramine's anti-histamine activity in the central nervous system. 8-chlorotheophylline produces a number of effects including nervousness, restlessness, insomnia, headache, and nausea, which are primarily attributed to its ability to block the adenosine receptor. Because adenosine causes a decrease in neuronal firing, blockade of the adenosine receptor causes the reverse effect resulting in excitation.

Loprazolam is a hypnotic drug which stimulates GABA-A receptors. Due to its hypnotic activity the drug is used to treat short-term sleep disordes.
Ambroxol, a substituted benzylamine, is an active metabolite of bromhexine, which is itself a synthetic derivative of vasicine, the active principle extracted from the plant species Adhatoda vasica. Ambroxol is an expectorant exerting mucokinetic properties, mucociliary activity, stimulation of surfactant production, anti-inflammatory and antioxidative actions and the local anaesthetic effect. Ambroxol was discovered at and has been manufactured by Dr. Karl Thomae GmbH, a division of Boehringer Ingelheim. The ambroxol patent is expired and the drug is available as a generic product from many different companies. Ambroxol was originally developed by Boehringer Ingelheim as a OTC therapy for respiratory disorders related to excessive mucus. Ambroxol's indication is secretolytic therapy in acute and chronic bronchopulmonary diseases associated with abnormal mucus secretion and impaired mucus transport. Boehringer Ingelheim markets the product under various brand names such as Mucosolvan® and Lasolvan®. Ambroxol was identified and found to be a pH-dependent, mixed-type inhibitor of glucocerebrosidase (GCase). Its inhibitory activity was maximal at neutral pH, found in the endoplasmic reticulum, and undetectable at the acidic pH of lysosomes. The pH dependence of Ambroxol to bind and stabilize the enzyme was confirmed. Ambroxol increases both the lysosomal fraction and the enzymatic activity of several mutant GCase variants. This profile of Ambroxol would allow to bind and stabilize GCase in the endoplasmic reticulum (thus preventing its degradation within endoplasmic reticulum), but without affecting GCase in the lysosomes (thus allowing it to degrade glucosylceramide). Indeed, studies showed that Ambroxol treatment significantly increased N370S and F213I mutant GCase activity and protein levels in fibroblasts originally obtained from Gaucher patients. Gaucher's disease is caused by the deficiency of glucocerebrosidase; ambroxol is a chaperone that acts by binding to and stabilising glucocerebrosidase. Zywie (formerly ExSAR Corporation) and Belrose Pharma are developing ambroxol hydrochloride (BEL 0218) for the treatment of type III Gaucher's disease. .

Thioproperazine is a potent neuroleptic with antipsychotic properties. Thioproperazine has a marked cataleptic and antiapomorphine activity associated with relatively slight sedative, hypothermic and spasmolytic effects. It is virtually without antiserotonin and hypotensive action and has no antihistaminic property. It is used for the treatment of all types of acute and chronic schizophrenia, including those which did not respond to the usual neuroleptics; manic syndromes. Overdosage may result in severe extrapyramidal symptoms with dysphagia, marked sialorrhea, persistent and rapidly increasing hyperthermia, pulmonary syndrome, state of shock with pallor and profuse sweating, which may be followed by collapse and coma.
Camostat mesilate (FOY-305) is a synthetic f low-molecular weight protease inhibitor. It is able to inhibit trypsin, prostasin, matriptase and plasma kallikrein. In addition camostat attenuates airway epithelial sodium channel function and enhances mucociliary clearance. Camostat mesilate tablets (FOIPAN®) are approved in Japan and used for the treatment of remission of acute symptoms of chronic pancreatitis and postoperative reflux esophagitis.
Guanoclor is an anti-hypertensive agent developed by Pfizer Ltd. (U.K.). It seems to be effective in various types of hypertension (unknown aetiology, renal, and malignant). It affects both systolic blood-pressure and diastolic blood-pressure. It is an adrenergic neurone-blocking agent, which also interferes with noradrenaline synthesis by inhibition of the enzyme dopamine beta-hydroxylase. Clinical use of the compound was first reported by Lawrie et al. (1964), who achieved satisfactory blood-pressure control in 60% of their cases with guanoclor alone, and in a further 18% with the addition of a thiazide diuretic. They also noted a significant reduction in urinary noradrenaline levels during guanoclor administration. Guanochlor has an affinity for the Na+/H+ exchanger ranging between 0.5 uM and 6 uM in different systems and is more potent than amiloride in all systems studied. It is suggested that guanochlor recognizes a binding site on the Na+/H+ exchanger that is distinct from the amiloride binding site.
