Menbutone is a choleretic compound which is used in veterinary medicine at a dose rate up to 10 mg/kg bw by parenteral (intravenous or intramuscular) route in bovine, ovine, caprine, porcine, and equine species. Menbutone stimulates the digestive tract by increasing excretion of bile, gastric acid, and pancreatic juices by two to five times baseline. It is marketed for veterinary use in Europe under several brand names.

Xamoterol (ICI 118,587) is a partial agonist of beta1-adrenoceptors. Xamoterol acts on the cardiac beta 1-adrenergic receptor, modifies the response of the heart to variations in sympathetic activity. At rest, it produces modest improvements in cardiac contractility, relaxation, and filling without increase in myocardial oxygen demand. The improvements are maintained during exercise although the attendant tachycardia is attenuated. The beneficial effects of xamoterol on both systolic and diastolic function suggested that it would be effective in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure, and this was demonstrated in small placebo-controlled studies where effort tolerance and symptoms were improved. Xamoterol produced improvements in exercise capacity, clinical signs, symptoms and quality of life with a low incidence of adverse experiences. Xamoterol is effective as monotherapy in heart failure.

Rilmenidine (brand names Albarel, Hyperium, Iterium and Tenaxum) is an imidazoline derivative used for the treatment of hypertension. Rilmenidine, an oxazoline compound with antihypertensive properties, acts on both medullary and peripheral vasomotor structures. Rilmenidine shows greater selectivity for imidazoline receptors than for cerebral alpha2-adrenergic receptors, distinguishing it from reference alpha2-agonists. Rilmenidine is as effective in monotherapy as all other first line classes of drugs, including diuretics, beta-blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, and calcium antagonists. It is well tolerated and can be taken in combination for greater efficacy. Sedation and dry mouth are not prominent side effects and withdrawal hypertension is not seen when treatment is stopped abruptly. In addition to a reduction in blood pressure, Rilmenidine has been shown to improve glucose tolerance, lipid risk factors, and insulin sensitivity.

Melperone is an antipsychotic drug which is used in Europe for the treatment of sleep disorders, agitation and confusion states. The exact mechanism of melperone action is unknown.

Talinolol (brand name Cordanurn) is the cardioselective beta-receptor antagonist which has been used for a long time in the treatment of various cardiovascular diseases and in tachyarrhythmia. The mean dosage is 10-20 mg intravenously administered over a period of 3-5 minutes, while the chronic oral dosage for this patient group amounts to 300mg/day. Cordanum eliminates the stimulating effect of catecholamines on the heart for physical and psychoemotional stress. The hypotensive effect is stabilized by the end of 2 weeks of course treatment. Reduces the frequency and severity of angina attacks; Contributes to the limitation of the heart attack zone and reduces the risk of arrhythmia in the presence of myocardial infarction, resulting in a decrease in mortality and the frequency of relapses. In average therapeutic doses, it has a less pronounced effect on the smooth muscles of the bronchi, myometrium, and peripheral arteries compared to non-selective beta-blockers. Talinolol is used in supraventricular (atrial fibrillation and flutter with high ventricular rate, paroxysmal supraventricular 1 tachycardia, sinus tachycardia) as well as ventricular extrasystoles and ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Patients with an increased tonus of the sympathetic nervous system related to sinus tachycardia, exercise-induced arrhythmias, hypertension, hyperthyroidism and coronary heart disease show a particularly positive reaction.

8-Hydroxyquinoline is is a heterocyclic phenol, exhibiting antiseptic, disinfectant and pesticide properties. It is used to prevent and treat vaginal bacterial infections, but the efficacy was not proven in clinical trial. 8-Hydroxyquinoline is used in over-the-counter remedies for diaper rash and oral health care. Its use for veterinary treatment of bacterial an skin infections is not approved by FDA. 8-Hydroxyquinoline acts by inhibition of RNA synthesis and DNA replication by chelating the dissociable cations Mn2 and Mg2 .

Ebastine is an antihistamine which blocks H1-receptors through its carboxylic acid metabolite. Ebastine is indicated for the treatment of allergic rhinitis and chronic idiopathic urticaria.

Pyriproxyfen is a broad-spectrum insect growth regulator with insecticidal activity against public health insect pests: houseflies, mosquitoes and cockroaches. In agriculture and horticulture, pyriproxyfen has registered uses for the control of scale, whitefly, bollworm, jassids, aphids and cutworms. Pyriproxyfen is used on citrus fruit in Israel, South Africa, Spain and Italy. Pyriproxyfen is one of several insecticides used for the control of the red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta) in California, USA. Pyriproxyfen has also been considered by WHO for vector control under its Pesticides Evaluation Scheme. It is a potent suppressor of embryogenesis and adult formation of the sweetpotato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), and the greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood). Dipping of cotton or tomato seedlings infested with 0 to 1-day-old eggs in 0.1 mg litre−1 resulted in over 90% suppression of egg hatch of both B. tabaci and T. vaporariorum. Pyriproxyfen is registered in the U.S. for flea and tick control in the home and on pets, as well as indoor and outdoor ant and roach control. Formulas include carpet powders, foggers, aerosols, shampoos, bait, and pet collars.

Propoxur (Baygon) is a carbamate insecticide that has recently attracted considerable attention as a possible treatment option for addressing the bedbug epidemic. Propoxur is a non-systemic insecticide with a fast knockdown and long residual effect used against the turf, forestry, and household pests and fleas. The generally accepted mechanism of toxicity for propoxur involves the inhibition of cholinesterase. Propoxur is also used in pest control for other domestic animals, Anopheles mosquitoes, ants, gypsy moths, and other agricultural pests. It can also be used as a molluscicide. Several U.S. states have petitioned the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to use propoxur against bedbug infestations, but the EPA has been reluctant to approve indoor use because of its potential toxicity to children after chronic exposure.

Dihydromorphine is a semi-synthetic opioid derived from morphine. dihydromorphine is a moderately strong analgesic and is used clinically in the treatment of pain and is also the active metabolite of dihydrocodeine. Dihydromorphine acts as an agonist at the μ-opioid (mu), δ-opioid (delta) and κ-opioid (kappa) receptors. Dihydromorphone is approved for clinical use in the United States, Europe, and Japan; and sold under the brand name Dilaudid. Similar to morphine, and other morphine derivatives, hydromorphone has a high potential for addiction and abuse and is listed as a Schedule II drug in the United States Controlled Substances Act of 1970 (and similarly regulated in other countries).
