FLUMEXADOL is a non-opioid analgesic. Its prodrug OXAFLOZANE was used as an antidepressant in France till 2004.

Nitraquazone (TVX 2706) is an phosphodiesterase inhibitor with antiinflammatory action. It strongly enhances the increase in intracellular levels of cyclic AMP caused by appropriate effectors in all systems tested so far. EC50 values are in the submicromolar range. The effect is apparently neither due to an increased responsiveness of the hybrid cells for an effector like prostaglandin E1 nor to an increased activity of adenylate cyclase, but to an inhibition of both low and high affinity cyclic AMP phosphodiesterases. Half-maximal inhibition of enzyme activity is obtained at 10 uM TVX 2706. TVX 2706 does not interfere with the calmodulin activation of phosphodiesterase. Nitraquazone affected cytokine production by PHA-stimulated human blood cells. Nitraquazone was active in reducing the production of IL-5 (IC50 = 0.8 uM), while its potency against IL-2, GM-CSF and IFN-gamma was 3-6 times lower.

In the early stages of testing was shown that it is about 4 times more potent than gallopamil and 12 times more potent than verapamil in its effects on smooth muscle tone and labeled calcium uptake.

Divabuterol or terbutaline dipivalate is a prodrug of terbutaline. The half-life of terbutaline dipivalate in human plasma is less than five minutes. Therapeutically, most forms of terbutaline can be used as bronchodilators in antiasthmatic treatment, as smooth muscle relaxants to treat premature labour (uterine relaxant) and for a number of other indications.

Niludipine (Bay-a-7168) is a potent calcium antagonistic coronary vasodilator with less cardiodepressant effect than nifedipine. Niludipine is a safe antianginal Ca2+-antagonist with broad effectiveness for various types of angina pectoris. Niludipine is clinically useful as coronary vasodilator and hypotensive agent.

Etofenprox is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide compound used in agricultural production. Etofenprox acts on the nervous system of insects by disrupting their neuron sodium channels. Etofenprox is a contact-kill adulticide used to control a wide variety of insects including weevils, beetles, aphids, moths, whiteflies, thrips, borers, fleas and mosquitoes. Etofenprox is well tolerated by mammals, including cats, and is environmentally friendly.

Dagapamil is a calcium-channel blocker, discovered by BASF. The compound is claimed to have antihypertensive, antiarrhythmic, cardioprotective, antiallergic and platelet aggregation-inhibiting action in animal models.

Cypothrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide, developed by American Cyanamide for the control of ticks and marketed under the tradename Panecto. The compound exhibited systemic insecticidal activity in the model of flies infestation in mice and ixodicidal activity in against larvae of Boophilus microplus.

Lobuprofen is an ester type analgesic, in which the acid moiety (ibuprofen) has peripheral analgesic activity and the alcohol moiety (mCPPol) has central analgesic activity.

Cefsumide is an antibiotic of the cephalosporin group patented by Fujisawa Pharmaceutical Co. Cefsumide binds to and inactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. PBPs are enzymes involved in the terminal stages of assembling the bacterial cell wall and in reshaping the cell wall during growth and division. Inactivation of PBPs interferes with the cross-linkage of peptidoglycan chains necessary for bacterial cell wall strength and rigidity. This results in the weakening of the bacterial cell wall and causes cell lysis.
