Cilnidipine (FRC-8653) is a dihydropyridine (DHP) type of calcium channel antagonist. The L-type Ca2+ channel blockade by cilnidipine affects predominantly vascular smooth muscle, thereby producing vasodilation of peripheral resistance vessels and coronary arteries. The blockade of N-type Ca2+ channels affects predominantly peripheral nerve endings of sympathetic neurons, thereby dilating blood vessels by lowering plasma catecholamine levels. Furthermore, renoprotective and neuroprotective effects as well as cardioprotective action of cilnidipine have been demonstrated in clinical practice or animal examinations. Cilnidipine was originated by Fuji & Rebio Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and developed jointly with Ajinomoto for the treatment of hypertension. Cilnidipine has been launched in Japan.

Cilazapril (Vascace and Dynorm are brand names in a number of European countries) is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE; kininase II) inhibitor. It competes with angiotensin I for binding at the angiotensin-converting enzyme, blocking the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. Cilazapril is a prodrug that is hydrolyzed after absorption to its main metabolite cilazaprilat. The half-life (30–50 hours) of cilazapril allows for once daily dosing unless the hypertension is severe. Cilazapril is used for the treatment of hypertension, congestive heart failure, post-myocardial infarction, and some other indications. Adverse events were mostly observed within the first 8-16 weeks of treatment, with headache, dizziness, fatigue, nausea, cough and chest pain being the most frequent.

Mebhydrolin (INN) or mebhydroline is a histamine H1-receptor antagonist. It is not available in the United States, but it is available in various other countries under the brand names Bexidal and Diazolin. It is used for symptomatic relief of allergic symptoms caused by histamine release, including nasal allergies and allergic dermatosis.

Timepidium bromide is a quaternary ammonium antimuscarinic used for the symptomatic treatment of visceral spasms. It is a muscarinic antagonist.

Cyromazine, an insect growth regulator, affects larval and pupal cuticles in dipterans and some other insects. The mode of action of this aminotriazine is not known yet, though it has been shown not to inhibit the synthesis of chitin and cuticular proteins. Cyromazine may, however, act on some step(s) of sclerotization of the cuticle. Cyromazine is not a cholinesterase inhibitor. As an insect growth regulator, cyrozine exerts its toxic action by affecting the nervous system of the immature stages (larvae) of certain insects.

Niflumic acid belongs to the group of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, and joint and muscular pain. Its mechanism of action is believed to be based on selective inhibition of cycloxygenases-2 that results in antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory effects. In addition to these effects on prostaglandin synthesis, it has been shown to act as a positive allosteric modulator on α1β2γ2 and as a negative modulator on α6β2 and α6β2γ2 (and α1β2) GABAA receptors. In addition, was reported, that niflumic acid blocked T-type calcium channels. It is available for clinical use in several European countries.

Egualen is an azulene derivative developed for the treatment of peptic ulcer and marketed in Japan under the tradename Azuloxa. The drug exerts its antiulcer activity by antagonizing TXA2 production.

Bucolome (Paramidine) is a barbiturate derivative. It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, which is used in the treatment of chronic articular rheumatism. It has been used as a uricosuric and/or anti-inflammatory agent in Japan since 1967. Bucolome acts as a CYP2C9 inhibitor and reduces the metabolism of several commonly used drugs, which makes it useful for potentiating or extending the duration of action of those drugs, or reducing the production of unwanted metabolites.

Epalrestat is an aldose reductase inhibitor that is approved in Japan for the improvement of subjective neuropathy symptoms, abnormality of vibration sense, and abnormal changes in heart beat associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Enocitabine is an anti-cancer nucleoside that was developed for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. Although the exact mechanism of its action is unknow, Enocitabine effectively inhibits tumor cell growht in vitro and the inhibition is supposed to be related to its metabolism to Ara-C, an inhibitor of DNA polymerase. The drug was approved in Japan and Korea and was marketed under the name Sunrabin, however, its current marketing status is unknown and is assumed to be discontinued.
