Bunaftine is a class III antiarrhythmic agent which has been found effective in treating or preventing both ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias. The acute electrophysiologic effects of intravenous Bunaphtine 1,5 mg/kg body weight, were studied in 19 subjects with estimated normal impulse formation and conduction. Significant effects were sinus bradycardia, prolongation of atrial refractory periods, depression of intranodal and infranodal conduction and prolongation of His-Purkinje system refractory periods. These properties are compared with those of amiodarone and quinidine and form the basis for correct use of Bunaphtine in the management of arrhythmias

Proxazole or 3-alpha-Phenyl-propyl-5-beta-diethylaminoethyl-1,2,3-oxadiazole is a drug used for functional gastrointestinal disorders. It’s an unusual drug because it possesses both anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties and because each of these two properties has some uncommon features. The antiinflammatory action takes place mostly against edematous responses and is devoid of ulcerogenic effects which are instead produced by most anti-inflammatory drugs; moreover proxazole prevents indomethacin-induced ulcers without exerting any anti-secretory effect. The antispasmodic activity results in a specific inhibition of smooth muscle spasm, both at the vascular and at the intestinal level, without significant interferences with the physiologic activity of that tissue.

Tropisetron (Tropisetron-AFT) is a potent and selective serotonin 3 (5-hydroxytryptamine3; 5-HT3) receptor antagonist with antiemetic properties, probably mediated via antagonism of receptors both at peripheral sites and in the central nervous system. Surgery and treatment with certain substances, including some chemotherapeutic agents, may trigger the release of serotonin from enterochromaffin-like cells in the visceral mucosa and initiate the emesis reflex and its accompanying feeling of nausea. Tropisetron (Tropisetron-AFT) selectively blocks the excitation of the presynaptic 5-HT3 receptors of the peripheral neurons in this reflex, and may exert additional direct actions within the CNS on 5-HT3 receptors mediating the actions of vagal input to the area postrema.

Tilarginine is L-N-monomethyl arginine (L -NMMA), a non-selective inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), which has been studied in the treatment of septic shock and cardiogenic shock complicating myocardial infarction. Despite strong evidence that excessive nitric oxide (NO) production plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of septic shock and may contribute to the pathogenesis of cardiogenic shock complicating myocardial infarction, outcome studies in these two disorders have proved disappointing. Tilarginine therapy was associated with an excess mortality, particularly at doses > 5 mg/(kg h), in septic shock, whereas the effects of a lower dose (1 mg/(kg h)) in cardiogenic shock complicating myocardial infarction were neutral. The excess mortality in patients with septic shock was almost certainly the result of unfavorable hemodynamic changes induced by Tilarginine (decreased cardiac output, increased pulmonary vascular resistance and reduced tissue oxygen delivery) whereas the lack of benefit in patients with cardiogenic shock complicating myocardial infarction may have been because the dose of Tilarginine was too low.

Pholcodine is an opioid that has been widely used worldwide since 1950 for the treatment of non-productive cough in children and adults. Illicit drug. Additionally Pholcodine is a marker for sensitization to neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) and is intended for use as a diagnostic tool in NMBA-induced anaphylaxis.

Oxeladin citrate is a cough suppressant, is a highly potent and effective drug used to treat all types of cough of various etiologies. Withdrawn from the Canadian, US, and UK markets in 1976 due to carcinogenicity. Oxeladine is a component of antitussive drug, Altussan, approved in Philippines.
