Doxylamine is an antihistamine commonly used as a sleep aid. This drug is also used to relieve symptoms of hay fever (allergic rhinitis), hives (rash or itching), and other allergic reactions. Doxylamine is a member of the ethanolamine class of antihistamines and has anti-allergy power far superior to virtually every other antihistamine on the market, with the exception of diphenhydramine (Benadryl). It is also the most powerful over-the-counter sedative available in the United States, and more sedating than many prescription hypnotics. In a study, it was found to be superior to even the barbiturate, phenobarbital for use as a sedative. Doxylamine is also a potent anticholinergic. Like other antihistamines, doxylamine acts by competitively inhibiting histamine at H1 receptors. It also has substantial sedative and anticholinergic effects. Used alone as a short-term sleep aid, in combination with other drugs as a night-time cold and allergy relief drug. Also used in combination with Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) to prevent morning sickness in pregnant women.

Mofegiline (MDL 72,974A or (E)-2-(4-fluorophenethyl)-3-fluoroallylamine, hydrochloride), is a selective and irreversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, mofegiline inhibits semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase activity from human serum and saphenous vein. In phase II studies, MDL 72,974A is proving to be a useful adjunct to conventional therapy of Parkinson's disease. It seems mofegiline development was discontinued.

Tropanserin (MDL 72422) is a potent and selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. It was investigated as a drug for the treatment of migraine. MDL 72222 was shown to be an effective antimigraine agent in a double-blind placebo-controlled study.

Glemanserin is a selective antagonist of the 5-HT2A receptor. It was tested in a clinical trial, in patients with generalized anxiety disorder, however, it did not demonstrate significant anxiolytic effects.

Etafedrine, a sympathomimetic agent that acts on the sympathetic receptors of the bronchial tree relaxing spasm in a manner similar to that of ephedrine, is a bronchodilator and a selective β2-adrenoreceptor agonist. Contraction of the guinea pig tracheal chain by acetylcholine or histamine was antagonized by etafedrine with a higher potency then ephedrine but with a lower potency than epinephrine (adrenaline). Etafedrine did not increase heart rate or force of contraction in guinea pig atria. Unlike ephedrine and tyramine, etafedrine did not induce the release of noradrenaline as was demonstrated in vitro in the perfused rabbit heart and instead acted as a selective β2 adrenoreceptor agonist. Etafedrine also belongs to the family of medications called decongestants. It works by narrowing blood vessels in the nasal passages, helping to relieve nasal stuffiness. Etafedrine has been used in pharmaceutical compositions, such as NETHAPRIN Expectorant, Nethaprin Dospan and Dalmacol, useful in the treatment of asthma and other respiratory disorders including chronic bronchitis.

Enoximone is an inhibitor of PDE3, which is used for the treatment of congestive heart failure. Also enoximone was shown to inhibit PDH in cardiac myocytes. The inhibition was shown to occur secondary to stimulating fatty acid oxidation

Doxylamine is a member of the ethanolamine class of antihistamines and has anti-allergy power far superior to virtually every other antihistamine on the market, with the exception of diphenhydramine (Benadryl). It is also the most powerful over-the-counter sedative available in the United States, and more sedating than many prescription hypnotics. In a study, it was found to be superior to even the barbiturate, phenobarbital for use as a sedative. Doxylamine is also a potent anticholinergic. Like other antihistamines, doxylamine acts by competitively inhibiting histamine at H1 receptors. It also has substantial sedative and anticholinergic effects. Used alone as a short-term sleep aid, in combination with other drugs as a night-time cold and allergy relief drug. Also used in combination with Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) to prevent morning sickness in pregnant women.
