Targets:
Methoxyphenamine also known as 2-methoxy-N-methylamphetamine (OMMA), is a beta adrenergic receptor agonist nd is used as a bronchodilator to treat asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and postinfectious cough. In addition, methoxyphenamine using is prohibited in sports according to the regulations of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)
Conditions:
Dihydrostreptomycin is an antibiotic compound derived from streptomycin by reduction with hydrogen. The primary mechanism of action of the antibiotic dihydrostreptomycin is binding to and modifying the function of the bacterial ribosome, thus leading to decreased and aberrant translation of proteins, in addition it binds mechanosensitive channel of large conductance (MscL) and modifies its conformation, thus allowing the passage of K+ and glutamate out of, and dihydrostreptomycin into, the cell. It has about the same degree of antibacterial activity as streptomycin, but it is less effective against some gram-negative microorganisms. Because it has a higher risk of irreversible deafness, and its effectiveness is no greater that that of streptomycin, dihydrostreptomycin is no longer used clinically. To date dihydrostreptomycin is approved for veterinary use to treat bacterial infections.

Tetraethylammonium is an experimental drug with no approved indication or marketed formulation. Tetraethylammonium blocks of apamin-sensitive and insensitive Ca2(+)-activated K+ channels. It is a weak agonist of the nicotinic receptor. Tetraethylammonium produces transient reductions in blood pressure. Tetraethylammonium hydroxide is used as a soluble source of hydroxide ions and in the synthesis of ionic organic compounds.

Mephentermine, an amphetamine-derived phenethylamine, is an alpha 1 adrenergic receptor agonist and a hypertensive drug. Mephentermine is mainly used as a vasopressor agent with a sympathomimetic action, primarily causing release of noradrenaline and increasing cardiac output due to positive inotropic effect on the myocardium. The injectable preparation of mephentermine is commonly used for the short-term treatment of various hypotensive states such as shock or hypotension accompanying myocardial infarction or spinal anesthesia or surgical procedures like cesarean section. There is evidence on the fetal metabolic effect and placental transfer of mephentermine. However, a few studies have shown that mephentermine is as effective as phenylephrine in preventing maternal hypotension after spinal anesthesia and has similar effect on neonatal outcome. It is being widely used in developing countries like India as it is much more economical than phenylephrine and offers ease of use as it does not necessitate multiple dilutions as injectable. It is also available in India as 10 mg oral tablets. Despite it was thought earlier to have a little stimulant effect its abuse potential has increased, especially in sports due to its stimulant properties. Like amphetamines, it has shown to increase athletic performance in strength exercises and endurance in a dose of 14 mg/70 kg body weight. It has been proposed that phentermine, which is the main metabolite of mephentermine, acts by inhibiting monoaminoxidases A and B. Mephentermine adverse effects has been related to CNS simulation, excessive rises in blood pressure, and arrhythmias. Wyamine Sulfate (brand name of mephentermine sulfate) approved by FDA in 1951 was discontinued in USA.
