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).

Rebamipide, an amino acid derivative of 2-(1H)-quinolinone, is used for mucosal protection, healing of gastroduodenal ulcers, and treatment of gastritis. It works by enhancing mucosal defense, scavenging free radicals, and temporarily activating genes encoding cyclooxygenase-2. Rebamipide is used in a number of Asian countries including Japan (marketed as Mucosta), South Korea, China, and India (where it is marketed under the trade name Rebagen). It is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in the United States. Studies have shown that rebamipide can fight the damaging effects of NSAIDs on the GIT mucosa.

Seratrodast belongs to a class of medication called thromboxane A2/prostaglandin endoperoxide receptor antagonist. Seratrodast blocks the broncho-constrictor effects of certain chemicals (prostaglandins) in the body. Seratrodast also decreases the inflammation by antagonising the thromboxane A2 receptor. Adverse effects include gastrointestinal disturbances, drowsiness, headache, palpitations, and hepatitis. Seradair may interact with Ozagrel.

Phosmet is a non-systemic, organophosphate insecticide used on both plants and animals. Phosmet is mainly used on apple trees for control of coddling moth, though it is used on a wide range of fruit crops, ornamentals and vines for the control of aphids, suckers, mites and fruit flies. Phosmet is a moderately potent cholinesterase inhibitor.

Maxacalcitol (OXAROL®) is a derivative of vitamin D and is used to treat the secondary hyperparathyroidism of hemodialysis (HD) patients as an injection and psoriasis as an ointment. Secondary hyperparathyroidism is one of the complications in HD patients with hyperplasia of parathyroid glands and elevated serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. Maxacalcitol (OXAROL®) suppresses synthesis and secretion of parathyroid hormone, and decreases a concentration of parathyroid hormone in blood. It also inhibits proliferation and induces differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes. Maxacalcitol (OXAROL®) used in patients with keratosis including psoriasis vulgaris, remarkably improving the symptoms.

Ambroxol, a substituted benzylamine, is an active metabolite of bromhexine, which is itself a synthetic derivative of vasicine, the active principle extracted from the plant species Adhatoda vasica. Ambroxol is an expectorant exerting mucokinetic properties, mucociliary activity, stimulation of surfactant production, anti-inflammatory and antioxidative actions and the local anaesthetic effect. Ambroxol was discovered at and has been manufactured by Dr. Karl Thomae GmbH, a division of Boehringer Ingelheim. The ambroxol patent is expired and the drug is available as a generic product from many different companies. Ambroxol was originally developed by Boehringer Ingelheim as a OTC therapy for respiratory disorders related to excessive mucus. Ambroxol's indication is secretolytic therapy in acute and chronic bronchopulmonary diseases associated with abnormal mucus secretion and impaired mucus transport. Boehringer Ingelheim markets the product under various brand names such as Mucosolvan® and Lasolvan®. Ambroxol was identified and found to be a pH-dependent, mixed-type inhibitor of glucocerebrosidase (GCase). Its inhibitory activity was maximal at neutral pH, found in the endoplasmic reticulum, and undetectable at the acidic pH of lysosomes. The pH dependence of Ambroxol to bind and stabilize the enzyme was confirmed. Ambroxol increases both the lysosomal fraction and the enzymatic activity of several mutant GCase variants. This profile of Ambroxol would allow to bind and stabilize GCase in the endoplasmic reticulum (thus preventing its degradation within endoplasmic reticulum), but without affecting GCase in the lysosomes (thus allowing it to degrade glucosylceramide). Indeed, studies showed that Ambroxol treatment significantly increased N370S and F213I mutant GCase activity and protein levels in fibroblasts originally obtained from Gaucher patients. Gaucher's disease is caused by the deficiency of glucocerebrosidase; ambroxol is a chaperone that acts by binding to and stabilising glucocerebrosidase. Zywie (formerly ExSAR Corporation) and Belrose Pharma are developing ambroxol hydrochloride (BEL 0218) for the treatment of type III Gaucher's disease. .

Boldenone (INN, BAN), also known as Δ1-testosterone, 1-dihydrotestosterone, or androsta-1,4-dien-3-one-17β-ol (train name Equipoise) is a long-acting injectable anabolic agent for horses, supplied in a vial providing 50 mg boldenone undecylenate per mL in sesame oil with 3% (w/v) benzyl alcohol as a preservative. The activity of boldenone is mainly anabolic, with a low androgenic potency. Boldenone will increase nitrogen retention, protein synthesis increases appetite and stimulates the release of erythropoietin in the kidneys. Boldenone was synthesized in an attempt to create a long-acting injectable methandrostenolone (Dianabol), for androgen deficiency disorders. Boldenone acts similar to methandrostenolone with fewer adverse androgenic effects. Although commonly compared to nandrolone, boldenone lacks progesterone receptor interaction and all the associated progestogenic side effects. Equipoise (Boldenone Undecylenate Injection) is recommended as an aid for treating debilitated horses when an improvement in weight, haircoat or general physical condition is desired. Debilitation often follows disease or may occur following overwork and overexertion. Boldenone improves the general state of debilitated horses, thus aiding in correcting weight losses and improving appetite. It is not a substitute for a well-balanced diet. Optimal results can be expected only when good management and feeding practices are utilized. Boldenone should be considered only as adjunctive therapy to other specific and supportive therapy for diseases, surgical cases, and traumatic injuries.

Benzydamine (benzydamine hydrochloride, PHARIXIA®) is a benzyl-indazole having analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory effects. It is indicated for the relief of pain in acute sore throat and for the symptomatic relief of oro-pharyngeal mucositis caused by radiation therapy.

Dipyrone, also known as Metamizole (INN), is an ampyrone sulfonate analgesic, antispasmodic and antipyretic. It was withdrawn from US market in 1977 on the basis of reports of agranulocytosis. Depyrone is still used to treat severe and diffucult for relieving pains of different origin; headache, tooth-ache, pains in the joints, muscles, following traumas and operations, gall and kidney colics, neurites, neuralgias, traumatic cerebrasthenia; inflammation of upper respiratory ways of microbial or virus origin; chorea; febrile states. Mechanism of action of dipyrone is complex. It is believed that dipyrone exerts its action by inhibiting COX-3, and activates opioid and cannabioid systems either itself, or by products of its metabolic degradation.

Cyproterone acetate is a steroid drug which was developed by Schering A.G (now Bayer). Cyproterone acetate was approved in Canada, Asia, Latin America and Europe for the treatment of sever acne under the name Diane-35 (ethinyl estradiol) and its mechanism of action in this condition is explained by competitive inhibition of androgen receptor AR. In Canada cyproterone acetate is widely used as a contraceptive, however its usage is associated with liver toxicity and clots formation. In the UK the drug is marketed for the treatment of prostate cancer (Cyproterone acetate brand name).
