Eberconazole is an antifungal drug with broad antimicrobial spectrum of activity. The drug was developed and approved in Spain (Ebernet 1% cream) for the treatment of tinea. Eberconazole exerts fungicidal or fungistatic activity depending on concentration, being fungicidal at higher concentration and fungistatic at lower concentrations. Eberconazole prevents fungal growth by inhibiting ergosterol synthesis, an essential component of the fungal cytoplasmic membrane leading to structural and functional changes. It prevents the fungal ergosterol synthesis by inhibiting lanosterol 14alpha-demethylase enzyme that is responsible for the formation of 14 alpha-methylsterols (precursor of ergosterols).

Azidocillin is a narrow-spectrum, semisynthetic penicillin derivative with antibacterial activity towards Grain-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms, including Haemophilus influenze, against which it is as effective as ampicillin. Azidocillin binds to and inactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. Inactivation of PBPs interferes with the cross-linkage of peptidoglycan chains necessary for bacterial cell wall strength and rigidity. This interrupts bacterial cell wall synthesis and results in the weakening of the bacterial cell wall, eventually causing cell lysis. Azidocillin can be applied in the treatment of inflammation of upper airways, middle ear, sinuses, throat, larynx and palatine tonsils. The substance is excreted with urine in 50-70% in the unchan¬ged form. It binds to the blood plasma proteins in 84%, and its half-life period is 30 min. The side effects are similar as those of benzylpenicillin but occur less frequently.

Acipimox (5-methylpyrazinecarboxylic acid 4-oxide) is a new lipolysis inhibitor that has a distant chemical relationship with nicotinic acid (NA). The anti-lipolytic action of acipimox is mediated through suppression of intracellular cyclic AMP levels, with the subsequent decrease in cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity, leading to the reduced association of hormone-sensitive lipase with triacylglycerol substrate in the lipid droplet of adipocytes. Acipimox has been identified as an agonist at G-protein coupled nicotinic acid HM74A and HM74B receptors. Acipimox (Olbetam) is indicated for the treatment as alternative or adjunct treatment to reduce triglyceride levels in patients who have not responded adequately to other treatments such as statin or fibrate treatment for hypertriglyceridaemia (Fredrickson type IV hyperlipoproteinaemia) and hypercholesterolaemia and hypertriglyceridaemia (Fredrickson type IIb hyperlipoproteinaemia).

Coenzyme A (CoA) is a ubiquitous essential cofactor that plays a central role in the metabolism of carboxylic acids, including short- and long-chain fatty acids, as well as carbohydrate and protein. In the metabolic pathway of lipid, CoA participates in fatty acid β-oxidation, promoting triglyceride (TG) catabolism. Coenzyme A functions as an acyl group carrier and assists in transferring fatty acids from the cytoplasm to mitochondria. All genomes sequenced to date encode enzymes that use coenzyme A as a substrate, and around 4% of cellular enzymes use it (or a thioester, such as acetyl-CoA) as a substrate. Coenzyme A is the most active metabolic enzyme in the human body. It is used as a supplement for the hypothetical treatment of acne.

Vernakalant is a new antiarrhythmic drug that acts selectively in the atrium, targeting atrial specific channels. Vernakalant is an anti-arrhythmic medicine that acts preferentially in the atria by prolonging atrial refractoriness and by rate-dependently slowing impulse conduction. These anti-fibrillatory actions on refractoriness and conduction are thought to suppress reentry, and are potentiated in the atria during atrial fibrillation. The preferential effects of vernakalant on the atria are postulated to result from its block of currents that are expressed in the atria (e.g., the ultra-rapid delayed rectifier potassium current; and the acetylcholine-activated potassium current), but not in the ventricles, as well as the unique electrophysiologic condition of the fibrillating atria. An oral formulation of vernakalant is in phase II development as a long-term maintenance therapy for patients with atrial fibrillation. An intravenous formulation of vernakalant has been launched in most countries in Europe and Latin America, and in Hong Kong, for the acute conversion of atrial fibrillation. The product has been approved for the acute conversion of atrial fibrillation in South Africa, Iceland, Turkey and is awaiting approval for the same indication in Canada. Phase III development of the IV formulation is ongoing at sites in Asia, and development is currently on hold in the US.

Docarpamine (marketed under the tradename Tanadopa) is a dopamine prodrug developed in Japan for the treatment of chronic heart failure. The drug does not cross the blood-brain barrier and shows no effect on CNS activity. It is supposed that the drug exerts its action by activating dopamine receptor D1.

Idrocilamide (trade names Talval, Srilane, Relaxnova, Brolitène) is a medication with skeletal muscle relaxant[2] and anti-inflammatory actions used as a topical cream to treat lumbago and other kinds of muscular pain. Idrocilamide acts intracellularly by decreasing sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release and externally by facilitating the voltage-dependent inactivation of the voltage sensor for excitation-contraction coupling. Idrocilamide has been reported to be a potent inhibitor of the metabolism of caffeine. Idrocilamide is available on prescription or over-the-counter in France and various other countries. Idrocilamide exerts a direct depressant effect on mechanical tension in rat soleus muscle fibers.

Oxyclozanide is a salicylanilide anthelmintic, used for the treatment and control of fascioliasis in cattle, sheep, and goats. The mechanism of action of oxyclozanide is the uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation in flukes. It is formulated as an oral drench containing oxyclozanide only or in combination with levamisole hydrochloride or oxfendazole or as a powder to be incorporated in the feed. The recommended doses are 10 to 15 mg oxyclozanide/kg BW for cattle and 15 mg oxyclozanide/kg BW for sheep and goats. The application was amended to exclude sheep milk and goat tissues and milk.

Alminoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) of the phenylpropionic acid class. It has anti-inflammatory properties different from the classical NSAID. Alminoprofen possesses both antiphospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity and anti-cycloxygenase (COX) activity.

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
