PF-03893787 is potent and selective histamine H4 receptor (H4R) antagonist. It has comparable binding affinity to the human histamine H3 receptor. PF-03893787 was found to have significant affinity for the hERG channel. Novartis initiates a phase II extension trial in Atopic dermatitis. Studies exploring the utility of PF-3893787 in patients would be reported in due course, being the potential indications of asthma, pruritus, inflammatory skin diseases and pain, among others.

Brolamfetamine (also known as DOB, bromo-DMA, and 4-bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenylisopropylamine) is one of a vast number of compounds used recreationally to achieve hallucinogenic effects. Brolamfetamine is one of the most potent hallucinogens, with its hallucinogenic potency directly linked to its abuse potential. Brolamfetamine acts as a partial agonist of 5HT2A, 5HT2B, 5HT2C, and TAAR1 receptors, but it’s psychedelic effects are mainly mediated by its agonistic properties at the 5-HT2A receptor. Animal studies have shown physiologic effects including hypertension, tachycardia, hyperpyrexia, pupillary dilatation, and peripheral vasoconstriction. In general, Brolamfetamine having a similar effect to LSD, with slower onset (up to 3–4 h to peak intoxication) and longer duration of effect (up to 36 h). Brolamfetamine is not commonly available, through periods of higher circulation were reported in Australia in 1983, Ireland in 2003, and in Italy in 2015. Brolamphetamine, as well as many other synthetic hallucinogens, are increasingly being sold as LSD. Internationally Brolamfetamine is a Schedule I drug under the Convention on Psychotropic Substances. Due to its selectivity, Brolamfetamine is often used in scientific research when studying the 5-HT2 receptor subfamily.

16alpha-Bromoepiandrosterone (HE2000) is a synthetic steroid that limits non-productive inflammation, enhances protective immunity and improves survival in clinical studies of patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), malaria and tuberculosis infections. HE 2000 had also shown activity in vitro against cytomegalovirus, polio, hepatitis B and C and influenza virus. 16alpha-Bromoepiandrosterone inhibits glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) and cell proliferation. HE 2000 was in phase II development for the Hepatitis B in Malaysia and Singapore, but it was suspended.

Primycin is a topical antibiotic developed in Hungary for the local treatment of certain superficial and deep infections of the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Primycin is a complex of macrocyclic antibiotics comprising 20 compounds. Primycin possesses good in vitro activity against Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci, but its activity against Sirepiococctts pyogenes and enterococci is moderate. It is active against Micrococcus and Bacillus spp. but is inactive against Corynebacterium spp. It is inactive against Enterofojcterwceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, yeasts, and dermatophytes. The median lethal dose in the mouse is greater than 3,000 mg/kg of body weight orally and 56 mg/kg intraperitoneally. No skin lesions have been observed after chronic cutaneous applications (90 days) in the rabbit.

Mesocarb (sydnocarb or 3-(beta-phenylisopropyl)-N-phenylcarbamoylsydnonimine) is a psychomotor stimulant N-alkylated amphetamine derivative. Mesocarb is a selective inhibitor of dopamine uptake, it potently blocks dopamine transporter. It is very likely that mesocarb is being used by drug addicts. Mesocarb is included in the World Anti-Doping Agency’s list of substances and methods that are prohibited in sports. It is used in Russia for the treatment of a variety of neuropsychiatric comorbidities.

Racemetirosine is an orally active inhibitor of the enzyme tyrosine 3-monooxygenase, and consequently of the synthesis of catecholamine. At dosages of 600 to 3500mg daily, it is effective in controlling the hypertensive episodes and symptoms of catecholamine excess in phaeochromocytoma during preparation for surgery. Oral Racemetirosine is well absorbed and absorption appears constant in each individual over a wide dosage range. The drug is largely excreted via the kidneys, but extrarenal elimination has not been studied. Case reports on the clinical use of Racemetirosine in phaeochromocytoma indicate that the drug controls hypertension and symptoms of catecholamine excess in most patients during preparation for surgical removal of a tumor. In some cases, the addition of Racemetirosine to phenoxybenzamine plus propranolol has resulted in adequate control of symptoms previously unresponsive to the adrenergic blocking regimen. Drowsiness and sedation have been the most frequently reported side effects of Racemetirosine treatment.

Quinterenol is a substituted 8-hydroxyquinoline derivative patented by Pfizer, Chas., and Co., Inc. as a bronchodilator. Quinterenol acts as a beta-adrenergic agonist that increased ventricular rate in most of the experimental animals.

Pytamine is a nitrosamine derivative patented by Hercules Powder Co. as antioxidants, stabilizers, rubber additives, insecticides, fungicides, bactericides, and pharmaceutical intermediates. In preclinical trials Pytamine shows potent psychotropic effects associated modulation of GABAA receptors.
