Phytic acid is a major phosphorus storage compound of most seeds and cereal grains. It has the strong ability to chelate multivalent metal ions, especially zinc, calcium, and iron. Phytic acid is also considered to be a natural antioxidant and is suggested to have potential functions of reducing lipid peroxidation and as a preservative in foods. Clathrin-associated adaprot complex AP-2 has it been suggested may act as one of the receptor sites for Phytic acid. Both in vivo and in vitro experiments have demonstrated striking anticancer (preventive as well as therapeutic) effects of Phytic acid.

Thiethylperazine is a antiemetic, which was used for the treatment of nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing radiotherapy, chemotherapy or as a postoperative care. Thiethylperazine exerts its therapeutic effect by blocking dopamine receptors in brain. The drug is capable of potentiating CNS depressants as well as atropine.

Biperiden, sold under the brandname Akineton was used as an adjunct in the therapy of all forms of parkinsonism (postencephalitic, arteriosclerotic and idiopathic). Was also useful in the control of extrapyramidal disorders due to central nervous system drugs such as phenothiazines and other groups of psychotropics. Biperiden is a weak peripheral anticholinergic agent. It has, therefore, some antisecretory, antispasmodic and mydriatic effects. In addition, biperiden possesses nicotinolytic activity. Parkinsonism is thought to result from an imbalance between the excitatory (cholinergic) and inhibitory (dopaminergic) systems in the corpus striatum. The mechanism of action of centrally active anticholinergic drugs such as biperiden is considered to relate to competitive antagonism of acetylcholine at cholinergic receptors in the corpus striatum, which then restores the balance. Atropine-like side effects such as dry mouth; blurred vision; drowsiness; euphoria or disorientation; urinary retention; postural hypotension; constipation; agitation; disturbed behavior may been seen. Only limited pharmacokinetic studies of biperiden in humans are available.

Trimeprazine (also known as Alimemazine), a phenothiazine used as antipsychotic drug. This drug is used in Russia under brand name TERALIGEN and has anti-histamine, sedative, and anti-emetic (anti-nausea) effects. Teraligen is used to treat neurosis, depression and anxiety of different origins. It prevents and relieves allergic conditions, which cause pruritus and urticaria by blocking histamine produced by the body during an allergic reaction. Trimeprazine competes with free histamine for binding at HA-receptor sites. This antagonizes the effects of histamine on HA-receptors, leading to a reduction of the negative symptoms brought on by histamine HA-receptor binding. Trimeprazine is not approved for use in humans in the United States. Nevertheless, combination of alimemazine and prednisolone (commonly sold under the brand name Temaril-P) is licensed as an antipruritic and antitussive in dogs.

Chlorphenoxamine is an antihistamine and anticholinergic used as an antipruritic and was formerly used in the sympathomimetic treatment of parkinsonism. Histamine receptor H1 antagonist. Chlorphenoxamine is used to treat Allergic conditions, it is reported as an ingredient of Systral in Germany, Malta, Portugal, Thailand, Turkey.

Ergonovine (also known as ergometrine) is the active water soluble component of ergot of rye. Ergonovine is being used as a maleate salt to prevent or treate postpartum haemorrhage and postabortion haemorrhage. Ergonovine stimulates alpha-adrenergic and serotonin receptors, thus activating contractions of uterine and vascular smooth muscle. Ergonovine may have depressant effect on CNS system as it binds to dopamine receptors.

Troleandomycin (also known Triacetyl-oleandomycin and having brand name Tao) is a macrolide antibiotic which used to for the treat of infections of the upper and lower respiratory tract: such as tonsillitis, bronchitis, sinusitis, and pneumonia. However, the brand name Tao was discontinued. Troleandomycin acts by penetrating the bacterial cell membrane and reversibly binding to the 50 S subunit of bacterial ribosomes or near the "P" or donor site so that binding of tRNA (transfer RNA) to the donor site is blocked. Translocation of peptides from the "A" or acceptor site to the "P" or donor site is prevented, and subsequent protein synthesis is inhibited.

Chlorpropamide (DIABINESE®), is a sulfonylurea hypoglycemic agent used in the treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus not responding to dietary modification. It appears to lower the blood glucose acutely by stimulating the release of insulin from the pancreas, an effect dependent upon functioning beta cells in the pancreatic islets. The mechanism by which chlorpropamide (DIABINESE®) lowers blood glucose during long-term administration has not been clearly established. Extra-pancreatic effects may play a part in the mechanism of action of oral sulfonylurea hypoglycemic drugs. While chlorpropamide is a sulfonamide derivative, it is devoid of antibacterial activity. Chlorpropamide (DIABINESE®) may also prove effective in controlling certain patients who have experienced primary or secondary failure to other sulfonylurea agent.

Propoxyphene is a centrally acting opiate analgesic. Propoxyphene is an odorless, freely soluble in water, white crystalline powder with a bitter taste. In vitro studies demonstrated propoxyphene and the metabolite norpropoxyphene inhibit sodium channels (local anesthetic effect) with norpropoxyphene being approximately 2 fold more potent than propoxyphene and propoxyphene approximately 10 fold more potent than lidocaine. Propoxyphene and norpropoxyphene inhibit the voltage-gated potassium current carried by cardiac rapidly activating delayed rectifier (hERG) channels with approximately equal potency. It is unclear if the effects on ion channels occur within therapeutic dose range. Propoxyphene is indicated for the relief of mild to moderate pain.

Rescinnamine is an alkaloid isolated from Rauvolfia serpentina and approved by FDA for the treatment of hypertension. The mechanism of rescinnamine is not established, but probably resembles that of reserpine. Rescinnamine approval was discontinued by unknown reason.
