Cefroxadine is an antibiotic developed for the treatment of bacterial infectious diseases caused by gram-negative and gram-positive organisms. The information about drug status is unavailable and is supposed to be "discontinued", however it may be manufactured in Italy by Novartis.

DODICIN (Tego-51), one of the amphoteric surfactants based on the dodecyl-di( aminoethyl)-glycine, has been considered as an effctive disinfectant having a broad specturn of antimicrobial activity. Tego-51 disinfectant was effective for the disinfection of commonly isolated bacteria and yeast from hospital. It may be recommended that Tego-51 should be used at concentration greater than 0.1% for the effective disinfection of skin, instruments and hospital floors.

Cefteram is a semisynthetic cephalosporin formulated for oral administration as the prodrug ester, cefteram pivoxil. The mechanism of action of cefteram is inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis. Cefteram exerts its bactericidal activity by strongly binding to penicillin-binding protein (PBP) 3, 1A, and 1Bs. The drug is available in Japan and is used for the treatment of bacterial infections.

Cefmatilen (codenamed S-1090) is an orally-active cephalosporin antibiotic, that shows high activity against a variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including Streptococcus pyogenes and Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Olamufloxacin (HSR-903) is an oral fluoroquinolone antimicrobial agent which has been reported to have a potent activity against respiratory pathogens, such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Moraxella catarrhalis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Chlamydia spp. and Legionella spp., as well. Olamufloxacin inhibits DNA gyrase from the susceptible and resistant bacterial strains. It has been shown that olamufloxacin possesses a more potent antibacterial activity against potential respiratory pathogens compared with other quinolone derivatives. An oral formulation of olamufloxacin was undergoing phase III for Bacterial infections in Japan (Discontinued).

Lenampicillin is a prodrug of ampicillin that inhibits bacterial penicillin binding proteins (transpeptidase) and thus is effective against a wide range of bacterial infections. The drug was developed and marketed in Japan (Takacillin, Varacillin), however its current marketing status is unknown and supposed to be discontinued.

Bisdequalinium (also known as R-199, trade name Solvidont) is an antibacterial agent for endodontic use. Bisdequalinium was available in three dispensing forms: an irrigation solution, a working solution, and a medication paste. They contained 0.125 %, 0.5 %, and 0.48 % Bisdequalinium respectively. The low cytotoxicity and high antimicrobial effects, detergent, and lubricating and chelating properties, all claimed in the manufacturer's brochure, make this material an appropriate candidate for clinical endodontic use.

Sulfabromomethazine is a long-acting derivative of sulfamezathine that is used in the poultry, swine and cattle industries for the treatment of coccidiosis and various bacterial infections. Single oral doses of the drug have been used to treat calf diphteria and pneumonia, metritis, foot root and septic mastitis in cattle with repeated dose 48 hors later sometimes required. Use of sulfabromomethazine during the last 3 months of pregnancy should be avoided. The compound is now rarely used.

Ribostamycin sulfate is an aminoglycoside-aminocyclitol antibiotic isolated from a streptomycete. It is an important broad-spectrum antibiotic with important use against human immunodeficiency virus and is considered a critically important antimicrobial by the World Health Organization. Aminoglycosides work by binding to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit (some work by binding to the 50S subunit), inhibiting the translocation of the peptidyl-tRNA from the A-site to the P-site and also causing misreading of mRNA, leaving the bacterium unable to synthesize proteins vital to its growth. Ribostamycin is usually used to treat sepsis, superficial skin infection, deep skin infection, lymphangitis/lymphadenitis, chronic pyoderma, osteomyelitis, pharyngitis/laryngitis, tonsillitis, acute bronchitis, pneumonia, pulmonary abscess, pyothorax, secondary infection in chronic respiratory lesions, cystitis, pyelonephritis, gonococcal infection, peritonitis, cholecystitis, dacryocystitis, keratitis (including corneal ulcer), otitis media, sinusitis and gnathitis. The most commonly reported adverse reactions include renal dysfunction, liver disorder and rash.

Isepamicin is an aminoglycoside antibacterial with properties similar to those of amikacin, but with better activity against strains producing type I 6'-acetyltransferase. The antibacterial spectrum includes Enterobacteriaceae and staphylococci. Anaerobes, Neisseriaceae and streptococci are resistant. The lower and upper break-points are 8 and 16 mg/L. Like other aminoglycosides, isepamicin exhibits a strong concentration-dependent bactericidal effect, a long post-antibiotic effect (several hours) and induces adaptive resistance. Isepamicin is administered intravenously or intramuscularly at a dosage of 15 mg/kg once daily or 7.5 mg/kg twice daily. Isepamicin is not bound to plasma proteins, and it distributes in extracellular fluids and into some cells (outer hair cells, kidney cortex) by active transport. Isepamicin has been developed and approved for clinical use in the 1990s.
