Oxyphenisatin is a stimulant laxative that has been used by mouth and as an enema. Oxyphenisatin was introduced as Lavema by Winthrop in US in 1959. Oxyphenisatin was used as a cleansing enema apart from x-ray studies and prior to urinary, gastro-intestinal and cholecystography x-ray examination. Oxyphenisatin was also used for preoperative preparation of the large intestine and colon. May be mixed with barium for x-ray examination of the large intestine. Oxyphenisatin may cause jaundice. Oxyphenisatin-induced liver damage usually occurs when the drug has been taken for at least six months and usually two years. Oxyphenisatin was withdrawn in most countries in the early 1970s.

Molybdic acid refers to hydrated forms of molybdenum trioxide. There is no information related to the biological and pharmacological application of molybdic acid. It is known, that this substance is used as heterogeneous catalysts.

Cimetropium bromide (cimetropium) is a semi-synthetic belladonna alkaliod, a quaternary derivatives of scopolamine. Cimetropium was used in Italy under the name Alginor for the treatment of painful gastrointestinal conditions, such as irritant bowel syndrome or infant colics as well as in preparation for diagnostic procedures. The drug exerts its action by binding to muscarinic receptors and inhibiting their activity.

Fabesetron is a dual 5HT3 and 5HT4 receptors antagonist that was developed in Japan for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced emesis and gastrointestinal disorders. The development of the drug was terminated in phase II.

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.

Alibendol (2-hydroxy-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-methoxy-5-prop-2-enyl benzamide) is an antispasmodic, choleretic, and cholekinetic compound, used in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders in Egypt

This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as aminobenzoic acids. These are benzoic acids containing an amine group attached to the benzene moiety. A commonly used x-ray contrast medium. Used, alone or in combination, for a wide variety of diagnostic imaging methods, including angiography, urography, cholangiography, computed tomography, hysterosalpingography, and retrograde pyelography. It can be used for imaging the gastrointestinal tract in patients allergic to barium. Radiopaque agents are drugs used to help diagnose certain medical problems. They contain iodine, which blocks x-rays. Depending on how the radiopaque agent is given, it localizes or builds up in certain areas of the body. The resulting high level of iodine allows the x-rays to make a "picture" of the area. The areas of the body in which the radiopaque agent localizes will appear white on the x-ray film. This creates the needed distinction, or contrast, between one organ and other tissues.
