Levophacetoperane is a piperidine derivative. Levofacetoperane is a sympathomimetic central nervous system stimulant and is commonly used to treat depression. Levophacetoperane is also a known analeptic and is strongly linked to apnea reversal in dogs after a single intravenous injection.

Oroxylin A is a flavonoid compound, one of the main components extracted from Scutellariae radix. It possess a broad spectrum of pharmacological effects, especially anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective activity. Oroxylin A inactivated HIF1α and reprogrammed fatty acid metabolism of HCT116 cells, decreasing intracellular fatty acid level and enhancing fatty acid oxidation. Oroxylin A improves attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder-like behaviors in spontaneously hypertensive rats via enhancement of dopamine neurotransmission and not modulation of GABA pathway as previously reported. Importantly, the present study indicates the potential therapeutic value of oroxylin A in the treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Both in vitro and in vivo study showed that oroxylin A possesses low toxicity, but the field was just limited in cancer research.

Du-24565 is a potent and selective inhibitor of the synaptosomal uptake of serotonin. At higher concentration, it affects the uptake of norepinephrine and dopamine. It is a potential antidepressant and can be useful as a pharmacological tool to study the role of 5-HT in the central nervous system. DU-24565 had little effect on serotonin or tyrosine accumulation in human melanoma cells but suppressed the uptake of extracellular Dopa. In vitro, DU-24565 inhibited the proliferation of PC-3, DU-145 and LNCaP human prostate carcinoma cells in a dose-dependent manner.

Nomifensine was developed by Hoechst AG as a potent inhibitor of noradrenaline, dopamine, and 5-HT uptake displayed antidepressant activity. It was first marketed in the UK in 1977 for the treatment of depression. Between 1977 and 1982 there were reports of hemolytic anemia in association with the drug, and this suspected adverse reaction was included in the 1981 edition of the data Sheet Compendium. FDA published a notice of its determination that Merital capsules were removed from the market for safety reasons.
