CHLORMERODRIN, an isourea derivative, is an organomercury compound that was previously used as a diuretic. Its radiolabelled (197Hg, 203Hg) forms were used as diagnostics in renal imaging and brain scans.

Ethyl biscoumacetate is a courmarin that is used as an anticoagulant. It has actions similar to those of Warfarin. It has been used in the management of thromboembolic disorders.

Dicumarol is an coumarin-like compound found in sweet clover. It is used as oral anticoagulant and acts by inhibiting the hepatic synthesis of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors (prothrombin and factors VII, IX, and X). It results in decresed prothrombin levels and a decrease in the amount of thrombin generated and bound to fibrin. This reduces the thrombogenicity of clots. Dicumarol is also used in biochemical experiments as an inhibitor of reductases.

MERSALYL (Mersal) is an organomercury compound, mercurial diuretics that superseded by safer diuretics such as thiazides, and is hardly used anymore. Due to the idiosyncratic nature of mercury toxicity, the risk of severe disease and sudden death are unpredictable and frequently show no warning signs. Mercurial diuretics cause diuresis by reducing the reabsorption sodium in the ascending loop of Henle, thus causing more water being delivered to the distal convoluted tubule. Unfortunately, earlier physicians misconstrued hallmark symptoms of mercury poisoning such as excessive salivation as signs of mercury's efficacy, including up until the early 1960s when the use of mercurial diuretics was halted in medicine.

Coumarin itself was first isolated from the tonka bean Coumarouna odorata. Coumarin and its derivatives are alpha-benzopyrones. Coumarin is metabolized in humans to 7-hydroxycoumarin. Coumarin is a secondary phytochemical with hepatotoxic and carcinogenic properties. For the carcinogenic effect, a genotoxic mechanism was considered possible. Coumarins have a significant effect on physiological, bacteriostatic and anti-tumor activity. Coumarins have potent edema protective function and thus involved in the treatment of lymphedema, elephantiasis and other high protein edema conditions. Coumarin has appetite-suppressing properties.

Pastaron (Urea) is a waste product of many living organisms, and is the major organic component of human urine. It is a very important starting material in a number of chemical syntheses, and is used on an industrial scale for the manufacture of fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, and resins. Urea is an osmotic diuretic similar to mannitol but more irritant. Applied topically, urea promotes hydration of keratin and mild keratolysis in dry skin. It increases water uptake by the stratum corneum and has an antipruritic effect. Pastaron is used to soften rough or dry skin caused by skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, keratosis, and others.

Carbazochrome Sulfonic Acid is an antihemorrhagic, or hemostatic, agent that will cease blood flow by causing the aggregation and adhesion of platelets in the blood to form a platelet plug, ceasing blood flow from an open wound. It is hoped that this drug can be used in the future for preventing excessive blood flow during surgical operations and the treatment of hemorrhoids, but research on its effectiveness and the severity of possible side effects remains to be fairly inconclusive. Carbazochrome has been investigated for use in the treatment of hemorrhoids in a mixture with troxerutin. Carbazochrome interacts with α-adrenoreceptors on surface of platelets, which are coupled to Gq protein and initiate PLC IP3/DAG pathway to increase intracellular free calcium concentration with these subsequent actions: Activates PLA2 and induce arachidonic acid pathway to synthese endoperoxides (TxA2, thromboxane A2); Calcium binds to calmodulin which then binds and activates myosin light-chain kinase, that will enable the myosin crossbridge to bind to the actin filament and allow contraction to begin. This will change platelet’s shape and induce release of serotonin, ADP, vWF (Von Willebrand factor), PAF (Platelet-activating factor) to promote further aggregation and adhesion. Carbazochrome is usually used to treat bleeding tendency (for example purpura, etc.) caused by attenuation of microvascular resistance, bleeding from skin or mucosa and inner membrane, fundal/renal/uterine bleeding and intraoperative or postoperative abnormal bleeding.

Perflunafene is a perfluorocarbon that can absorb, transport, and release oxygen and carbon dioxide. Perflunafene is a can be used as an alternative to red blood cell preparations to improve gaseous transport, in particular oxygen supply, to the tissues. Intra-ocular injection of perflunafene is used to provide temporary tamponade in ophthalmic procedures such as retinal re-attachment. Perflunafene and perfluamine have been used together for their oxygen-carrying properties in blood substitute preparations and to prevent myocardial ischaemia during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.

Regrelor (INS50589) is a P2Y(12) ADP-receptor antagonist that regulates platelet function. Regrelor was found to be well-tolerated and have reversible effects. Its potential therapeutic utility in various cardiovascular settings has been studied. Initial results of canine models suggested that regrelor should be effective in protecting platelet function and reducing blood loss in human patients undergoing open-heart surgery. A phase II study testing regrelor for its safety and efficacy in reduction of postoperative bleeding and blood product transfusion was terminated due to adverse effects.
