Amphecloral (INN: amfecloral) is a phenethylamine derivative which was patented in 1960 as an amphetamine pro-drug with prolonged duration of action. Amfecloral was used as an appetite suppressant under the trade name Acutran, but is now no longer marketed. It is an anorectic drug with little to no stimulant activity. Amphecloral is metabolized to both d-(S)- and l-(R)-amphetamine.

Suloctidil is considered to be calcium antagonist. In addition to its vascular antispasmodic activity, suloctidil affects blood platelets and enhances brain energy metabolism. Suloctidil was being evaluated in many clinical trials for use in dementia and thrombotic disorders. Suloctidil induces hepatotoxicity.

Zofenopril is an inhibitor of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE), which is approved in Europe for the treatment of hypertension and acute myocardial infarction.

Cilazapril (Vascace and Dynorm are brand names in a number of European countries) is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE; kininase II) inhibitor. It competes with angiotensin I for binding at the angiotensin-converting enzyme, blocking the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. Cilazapril is a prodrug that is hydrolyzed after absorption to its main metabolite cilazaprilat. The half-life (30–50 hours) of cilazapril allows for once daily dosing unless the hypertension is severe. Cilazapril is used for the treatment of hypertension, congestive heart failure, post-myocardial infarction, and some other indications. Adverse events were mostly observed within the first 8-16 weeks of treatment, with headache, dizziness, fatigue, nausea, cough and chest pain being the most frequent.

Fenoterol is a beta2-adrenoreceptor agonist, used as a bronchodilator for the treatment and prevention of bronchospasms, associated with asthma and chronic obstructive airway disease, including bronchitis and pulmonary emphysema. Fenoterol is also used for tocolysis during premature labor. Marketing of fenoterol for treatment of asthma was suspended in Australia and New Zealand because of an increased risk of deaths, most likely due to excessive self-administration of the drug.

Thiamphenicol is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, which is active against gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. The drug is marketed in Asia and Latin America for the treatment of various infections, including sexually transmitted diseases. As many phenicols, thiamphenicol inhibits the protein synthesis in bacterias by binding to 23S ribosomal subunit. In Europe and USA the drug is used in a veterinary practice.

Fenproporex is a central and indirect-acting sympathomimetic. It was developed as an anorectic drug. Their anorectic effects are believed to be a result of adrenergic activation. Fenproporex has never been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for sale in the US due to lack of efficacy and safety data. There is a paucity of randomized, placebo-controlled trials on Fenproporex. These studies suggest that Fenproporex is modestly effective in promoting weight loss. Data from these studies are insufficient to determine the risk-benefit profile of Fenproporex. Abuse potential and amphetamine-like adverse effects are causes for concern. Adverse effect most frequently reported are: insomnia, anxiety, depression, irritability, dry mouth.

N,N-Dimethylcarbamoylmethyl alpha,2-dimethyl-5H-[1]- benzopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine-7-acetate (Y-23023/ Tilnoprofen arbamel) is a prodrug developed as a new non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), by Yoshitomi and Japan Tobacco for treatment pain in Rheumatoid arthritis, but was discontinued. Y-23023 is rapidly hydrolysed to an active metabolite, alpha,2-dimethyl-5H-[1]benzopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine-7-acetic acid (TILNOPROFENIC ACID), cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor.

Ciclonium bromide is an antimuscarinic agent that acts by action by directly relaxing the smooth muscles. It is not approved in the USA, but available was marketed in other countries for functional or organic disorders associated with anxiety and emotional tension e.g. gastric and duodenal ulcers, gastritis, hypersecretion and gastric discomfort, spastic constipation, bile duct dyskinesia, renal colic, and dysmenorrhoea.

Butropium Bromide is an anticholinergic and an antispasmodic. It is a Muscarinic receptor antagonist. The drug is used for remission of spasmodic pain in the following diseases: gastritis, enteritis, gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, cholelithiasis and cholecystopathy (including cholecystitis, and cholecystic and biliary dyskinesia). It is marketed in Japan under the brand name Coliopan.
