Pemoline is a central nervous system stimulant. Pemoline is structurally dissimilar to the amphetamines and methylphenidate. Pemoline is generally considered dopaminergic, but its precise method of action hasn't yet been definitively determined. The interaction of pemoline with other drugs has not been studied in humans. The following are adverse reactions in decreasing order of severity within each category associated with pemoline: hepatic dysfunction, aplastic anemia, convulsive seizures, hallucinations, insomnia, anorexia and weight loss.

Oxolinic acid is a synthetic quinolone antibiotic related to nalidixic acid. It is authorized in veterinary medicine for use in finfish, calves, pigs, and poultry. It acts by inhibiting bacterial type II topoisomerase activity. Oxolinic acid has been used in human medicine in several countries in the past. Its use in human medicine has largely been replaced by the fluoroquinolone antibiotics.

Cephapirin is a first-generation cephalosporin. Cephapirin has been indicated for the treatment of infections when caused by susceptible strains in respiratory, genitourinary, gastrointestinal, skin and soft tissue, bone and joint infections, septicemia; treatment of susceptible gram-positive bacilli and cocci (never enterococcus); some gram-negative bacilli including E. coli, Proteus, and Klebsiella may be susceptible. Cephapirin is used in veterinary as an intra-uterine antibiotic infusion for the treatment of subacute and chronic endometritis in cows and repeat breeders.

Cephradine is a semisynthetic cephalosporin antibiotic. Cephradine is active against the following organisms in vitro: Group A beta-hemolytic streptococci; Staphylococci, including coagulase-positive, coagulase-negative, and penicillinase-producing strains; Streptococcus pneumoniae (formerly Diplococcus pneumoniae); Escherichia coli; Proteus mirabilis; Klebsiella species; Hemophilus influenza. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria. It is used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections (e.g., skin, ear, respiratory and urinary tract infections). Pseudomembranous colitis has been reported in patients receiving cephradine both orally and intravenously. Diarrhea generally starts 1 to 16 days after starting cephradine therapy. Gastrointestinal side effects have included nausea, vomiting. Hypersensitivity reactions have included rash, urticaria, pruritus, and joint pain. Bacteriostats may interfere with the bactericidal action of cephalosporins in acute infection; other agents, e.g., aminoglycosides, colistin, polymyxins, vancomycin, may increase the possibility of nephrotoxicity.

Cyanocobalamin Co-58 is radiopharmaceutical derivative of an essential vitamin B12. Radioactive isotope Co-58 has a half-life of 72 days and produces hard gamma radiation when it decays to Fe-58. In the 1960s, cyanocobalamin Co-58 was used in western European countries for the diagnosis of liver diseases: hepatitis, parenchymal liver disease, lead poisoning, and other condition. Its use was superseded by cyanocobalamin Co-57, which is marketed used for the diagnosis of pernicious anemia and as a diagnostic adjunct in other defects of intestinal vitamin B12 absorption.

Cephacetrile, a parenteral cephalosporin, is a broad-spectrum first generation cephalosporin antibiotic effective in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial infections. It works by inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis. It attains high serum levels and is excreted quickly via the urine. By binding to specific penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located inside the bacterial cell wall, it inhibits the third and last stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis. Cephacetrile was used in the treatment of female pelvic inflammatory disease, meningitis and number of other systemic, respiratory and urinary infections.

Pentagastrin (trade name Peptavlon) is a cholecystokinin type B (CCK(B)) receptor agonist, which was indicated as a diagnostic aid for evaluation of gastric acid secretory function. It was effective in testing for an acidity (achlorhydria) in patients with suspected pernicious anemia, atrophic gastritis, or gastric carcinoma. It was effective in determining the reduction in acid output after operations for peptic ulcer, such as vagotomy or gastric resection. Pentagastrin was also indicated as a diagnostic aid in testing for gastric hypersecretion in patients with suspected duodenal ulcer or postoperative stomal ulcer, and for the diagnosis of Zollinger-Ellison tumor. Peptavlon was discontinued, Federal Register determined that product was not discontinued or withdrawn for safety or efficacy reasons. In addition was shown, that Pentagastrin may release adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and cortisol through direct pharmacological action, perhaps enhanced on first exposure by psychologically mediated novelty effects. Novelty, per se, is not likely the primary mediator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) response. This model may be useful for further study of cognitive-emotional modulators of HPA axis activity.

Cyanocobalamin Co 57 is a manufactured form of radiolabeled vitamin B indicated as an adjunct in diagnosing intestinal cyanocobalamin malabsorption syndromes due to lack of intrinsic factor (IF) or other defects in intestinal absorption (e.g., blind loop syndrome and diverticulitis, celiac disease, Crohn's disease, lesions in the small intestine, severe pancreatitis, tropical sprue).

Dinoprost is the synthetic or partially synthetic, naturally-occurring prostaglandin F2 alpha (trade mark Prostin F2 alpha). Dinoprost has been used for therapeutic termination of pregnancy. Although the exact mode of action in pregnancy termination in humans is not fully defined, when Prostin F2 alpha is administered by the intrauterine route it initiates rhythmical uterine contractions which, if continued for a sufficient time, are capable of expelling the contents of the uterus. Sensitivity of the pregnant uterus to prostaglandins is lower during early and mid-pregnancy than at term.

Iocetamic acid is a medical diagnostic aid. It is a contrast agent used to enhance structures or fluids during X-ray imaging.
