Glutodine (Cyproheptadine), sold under the brand name Periactin or Peritol, is a first-generation antihistamine with additional antiserotonergic, anticholinergic and local anesthetic properties. Glutodine is a white to slightly yellowish crystalline solid, which is soluble in water, freely soluble in methanol, sparingly soluble in ethanol, soluble in chloroform, and practically insoluble in ether. Cyproheptadine is used to treat allergic reactions (specifically hay fever), Vasomotor rhinitis, Allergic conjunctivitis due to inhalant allergens and foods, uncomplicated allergic skin manifestations of urticaria and angioedema amelioration of allergic reactions to blood or plasma, Cold urticaria, and Dermatographism. Cyproheptadine is used off-label to treat Spasticity Associated With Spinal Cord, Migraine Headache Prophylaxis, Decreased Appetite Secondary to Chronic Disease, Drug-Induced Sexual Dysfunction, Serotonin Syndrome.
Prednisolone hemisuccinate is a prodrug of a glucocorticoid agonist prednisolone, which is marketed under trade name Prednisolut in Germany and Austria. Prednisolone hemisuccinate is used in emergency medicine to treate shock due to allergic reaction, insect and snake bites, in neurology to treat brain edema and meningitis, in transplantation medicine to reduce risk of organ refection after kidney transplane, in pneumology to treat acute asthma attack, pulmonary edema, in severe or life-threatening situation in rheumatic diseases.
Carbinoxamine is a histamine-H1 receptor blocking agent. It is an antihistamine with anticholinergic (drying) and sedative properties. Carbinoxamine appears to compete with histamine (type H1) for receptor sites on effector cells in the gastrointestinal tract, blood vessels and respiratory tract. Carbinoxamine is effective for the symptomatic treatment of seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis; vasomotor rhinitis; allergic conjunctivitis due to inhalant allergens and foods; mild, uncomplicated allergic skin manifestations of urticaria and angioedema; dermatographism; as therapy for anaphylactic reactions adjunctive to epinephrine and other standard measures after the acute manifestations have been controlled. Most common adverse reactions are: sedation, sleepiness, dizziness, disturbed coordination, epigastric distress, and thickening of bronchial secretions. Avoid concomitant use of alcohol and CNS depressants (hypnotics sedatives, tranquilizers, etc.) due to additive adverse effects.

Epinephrine is a sympathomimetic catecholamine. It acts as a naturally occurring agonist at both alpha and beta-adrenergic receptors. Three pharmacologic types have been identified: alpha 1-, alpha 2-, and beta-adrenergic receptors. Each of these has three subtypes, characterized by both structural and functional differences. The alpha 2 and beta receptors are coupled negatively and positively, respectively, to adenylyl cyclase via Gi or Gs regulatory proteins, and the alpha 1 receptors modulate phospholipase C via the Go protein. Subtype expression is regulated at the level of the gene, the mRNA, and the protein through various transcriptional and postsynthetic mechanisms. Through its action on alpha-adrenergic receptors, epinephrine lessens the vasodilation and increased vascular permeability that occurs during anaphylaxis, which can lead to loss of intravascular fluid volume and hypotension. Through its action on beta-adrenergic receptors, epinephrine causes bronchial smooth muscle relaxation and helps alleviate bronchospasm, wheezing and dyspnea that may occur during anaphylaxis. Epinephrine also alleviates pruritus, urticaria, and angioedema and may relieve gastrointestinal and genitourinary symptoms associated with anaphylaxis because of its relaxer effects on the smooth muscle of the stomach, intestine, uterus and urinary bladder. Epinephrine increases glycogenolysis, reduces glucose up take by tissues, and inhibits insulin release in the pancreas, resulting in hyperglycemia and increased blood lactic acid.

Flumethasone 21-acetate is an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid. It has 300 times greater anti-inflammatory activity and 677 times greater capacity to promote liver glycogen deposition than hydrocortisone. It has anti-rheumatic potency 31 times higher than cortisol.
RS25344 is a potent and selective phosphodiesterase (PDE) 4 inhibitor. It preferentially inhibits phosphorylated PDE4D. The compound demonstrated efficacy in animal models of inflammation and anaphylaxis. RS25344 inhibited eosinophil chemotaxis, increased the progressive motility of bovine spermatozoa, inhibited leukotriene B4 biosynthesis by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes.

ICI-63197 is a potent and selective phosphodiesterase IV (PDE 4) inhibitor with potent antidepressant activity. The antidepressant action of ICI-63197 realizes via enhancement of central noradrenergic transmission due to selective inhibition of cAMP phosphodiesterase. ICI 63 197 was investigated in mice for its effectiveness in two classical test models for prediction of clinical antidepressant activity: antagonism of reserpine-induced hypothermia or hypokinesia and potentiation of yohimbine lethality. ICI 63 197 was approximately 15 times more potent than imipramine in antagonizing reserpine-induced hypothermia. The antihypothermic effect of the ICI-63197 occurred at a smaller dose than that of imipramine. In contrast to imipramine, the ICI-63197 reversed reserpine-induced hypokinesia. ICI-63197 approximately, as potent as imipramine in potentiating the lethality of yohimbine. ICI 63 197 was never tested in clinical trials.
