Protoveratrine B is one of two alkaloids isolated from the plant Veratrum albumen. The main effect of both alkaloids is vasodilation in all vascular beds thereby reducing blood pressure. In the 1950's it was recognized that Protoveratrine B is the preferred compound which can be administered at significantly higher doses before the patient begins to vomit.

Protoveratrine A, the principal alkaloid of Veratrum album, has been used in the treatment of hypertension but has largely been replaced by drugs with fewer adverse effects.

Viomycin is a basic peptide antibiotic, which is among the most effective agents against multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. The tuberactinomycins, such as Viomycin, target bacterial ribosomes, binding RNA and disrupting bacterial protein biosynthesis. Specifically, viomycin binds to a site on the ribosome which lies at the interface between helix 44 of the small ribosomal subunit and helix 69 of the large ribosomal subunit. The structures of this complexes suggest that the viomycin inhibits translocation by stabilizing the tRNA in the A site in the pretranslocation state.

Tricyclamol is a quaternary ammonium compound, which is a crystalline odorless substance, readily soluble in water. It may be given by mouth or by subcutaneous injection. Tricyclamol was used for its spasmolytic action on smooth muscle. In animals it inhibits the spasmogenic effects of acetylcholine (ACh), carbachol, pilocarpine and barium chloride. In relaxing ACh-induced spasm of isolated rabbit ileum the activities of the dextro and laevo isomers of tricyclamol were approximately 0.006 and 2 times that of atropine sulphate respectively. Further, in inhibiting the stretch reflex of isolated guinea-pig ileum the laevo isomer was much more active than the dextro and about twice as potent as the racemate. Tricyclamol blocks the superior cervical ganglion. Tricyclamol chloride has a marked effect in reducing the motility of the stomach and duodenum, and to a far greater extent than the results produced by hyoscyamine. This action may be of value in controlling the pain of peptic ulceration, since it is likely that the pain, at least in part, is due to spasm.

Ethopropazine is an anticholinergic drug. Ethopropazine is an inhibitor of butyrylcholinesterase and non-selective muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist. Ethopropazine has been used for the treatment of parkinsonism and drug-induced extrapyramidal reactions. Also It used for the symptomatic treatment of hepatolenticular degeneration and congenital athetosis.

CYCRIMINE is an antispasmodic drug used for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). It binds the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M1, effectively reducing levels of acetylcholine. This decrease in acetylcholine restores the normal dopamine-acetylcholine balance and relieves the symptoms of PD.

Fumagillin, an antimicrobial compound first isolated in 1949 from the fungus Aspergillus fumigatusa, naturally occurring water-insoluble antibacterial agent developed by sanofi-aventis, is approved in France for the treatment of microsporidiosis. Fumagillin (Flisint, Sanofi-Aventis, Paris, France) has been approved in France since 2002 for the treatment of intestinal microsporidiosis due to E. bieneusi in patients with AIDS, and is also available through an expanded access program for patients without AIDS. It has not been approved, however, by the US Food and Drug Administration. The discovery of fumagillin, a MetAP-2 inhibitor, with potent antiangiogenic and antiproliferative activities promoted the development of fumagillin analogues as a novel class of anticancer agents. It has been the subject of research in cancer treatments by employing its angiogenesis inhibitory properties.

Aminopentamide is a potent antispasmodic agent. As a cholinergic blocking agent for smooth muscle, its action is similar to atropine. Aminopentamide hydrogen sulfate is marketed under the brand name Centrine indicated in the treatment of acute abdominal visceral spasm, pylorospasm or hypertrophic gastritis and associated nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea of the dogs and cats. Centrine effectively reduces the tone and amplitude of colonic contractions to a greater degree and for a more extended period than does atropine. Centrine effects a reduction in gastric secretion, a decrease in gastric acidity and a marked decrease in gastric motility. Aminopentamide is a nonselective muscarinic cholinergic .

Ferrocholinate is a chelate prepared by reacting equal quantities of freshly precipitated ferric chloride with choline dihydrogen citrate. Ferrocholinate is used as a source of iron in iron deficiency anemia. Ferrocholinate absorption is increased by simultaneous administration of ascorbic acid. Absorption reduced by antacids, cholestyramine or proton pump inhibitors (omeprazole, pantoprazole, lansoprazole). The following adverse effects may occur: occasionally, gastrointestinal disorders (stomach pain, nausea, constipation or diarrhea) may appear, which usually disappear quickly after the dose is reduced or, if necessary, after treatment discontinuation. Darkness of stool: it is frequently observed during treatment and is safe for the patient. Allergic reactions may occur, also.
