Gilutensin is a drug that was developed for the treatment of hypotensive circulatory disorders. As there is no information available on the drug since 1970, its development is supposed to be terminated in early phase.

Etafenone is an antiarrhythmic and coronary vasodilator drug. Etafenone exerts negative inotropic action on myocardium. It is able to block calcium channels. As a coronary vasodilator which produces a decrease in the heart rate and myocardial oxygen consumption, etafenone has been used in the therapy of ischemic heart disease.

Bucindolol is a third-generation, non-selective β-adrenergic receptor blocker, that acts on both β-1 and β-2 receptors. Bucindolol’s additional α-1 antagonistic activity contributes to its mild vasodilator effect. It was rejected by the FDA for the heart failure, because of the unreviewed submissions deal with comparative effectiveness, clinical pharmacology, some aspects of pharmacogenetic data, and toxicology/metabolism. In addition, bucindolol is in the phase II of clinical trial for the treatment of atrial fibrillation.

Chlormidazole was the first azole introduced the treatment of topical mycosis. It demonstrated inhibitory activity against many fungi and some gram-positive cocci. It is used for the treatment of fungal and bacterial infections of nails and skin, including interdigital and periungual mycoses. Possible side effects are: local skin irritation, burning, itching.

Vincamine is the major alkaloid of Vinca minor. Although vincamine has been used therapeutically for almost three decades, the exact mechanisms of action and its effects are still unknown. Vincamine is a peripheral vasodilator that increases blood flow to the brain. Vincamine is beneficial to the nervous system's cells feeding and protecting processes and is utilized as an adjuvant in case of cerebrovascular insufficiency, age-related psycho-behavioral disorders, post concussion syndrome in head trauma, in case of post-stroke sequels. Vincamine may be used as a dietary nootropic supplement.

Trichlormethine is a nitrogen mustard vesicant that has application in chemical warfare and has been used as a cytostatic alkylating agent in leukemia and lymphoma therapy. Trichlormethine was tested for carcinogenicity by subcutaneous injection in mice and rats. The study in mice was inadequate for evaluation. In rats, trichlormethine induced a high incidence of sarcomas (mostly spindle-cell type) in animals of each sex at the site of subcutaneous injection, as well as a few intestinal adenocarcinomas; neither tumor type was seen in controls. Trichlormethine caused vomiting, anorexia and blood-containing feces in dogs a few hours after a single intravenous injection of 1 mg/kg BW. Decreased peripheral lymphocyte counts were observed in rabbits injected intravenously and in mice injected subcutaneously with trichlormethine. Trichlormethine was tested for carcinogenicity by subcutaneous injection in mice and rats. ln rats, trichlormethine induced a high incidence of sarcomas (mostly spindle-cell type) in animals of each sex at the site of subcutaneous injection, as well as a few intestinal adenocarcinomas; neither tumor type was seen in controls. Trichlormethine is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B).

Tropisetron (Tropisetron-AFT) is a potent and selective serotonin 3 (5-hydroxytryptamine3; 5-HT3) receptor antagonist with antiemetic properties, probably mediated via antagonism of receptors both at peripheral sites and in the central nervous system. Surgery and treatment with certain substances, including some chemotherapeutic agents, may trigger the release of serotonin from enterochromaffin-like cells in the visceral mucosa and initiate the emesis reflex and its accompanying feeling of nausea. Tropisetron (Tropisetron-AFT) selectively blocks the excitation of the presynaptic 5-HT3 receptors of the peripheral neurons in this reflex, and may exert additional direct actions within the CNS on 5-HT3 receptors mediating the actions of vagal input to the area postrema.

Moroxydine is an antiviral drug discovered in the 1950’s which was shown to be active against DNA and RNA viruses. Moroxydine analogues are potent anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) agents.

Moxaverine, a derivative of papaverine, is a phosphodiesterase inhibitor. Moxaverine has been studied in phase III of a clinical trial for the treatment of ocular blood flow in patients with age- related macular degeneration and primary open angle glaucoma. In addition, it has been studied in phase II of the clinical trial for the treatment of ischemia. This compound is prohibited by FEI (International Federation of equine).

Alprenolol is a beta adrenoreceptor blocking agent and 5HT1A antagonist, developed by AstraZeneca and now available as generic drug. It is used for treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris due to coronary atherosclerosis and acute myocardial infarction.
