Trestolone is a synthetic androgen that inhibits the release of follicle-stimulating hormone and impairs spermatogenesis. Luteinizing hormone is also suppressed, which cuts production of testosterone. The azoospermia and oligospermia are reversible after discontinuation of trestolone. Trestolone has androgenic and anabolic properties and loss of secondary sex characteristics is not seen. Like testosterone, trestolone undergoes enzymatic aromatization to an estrogen. The use of trestolone instead of testosterone for androgen replacement therapy could have health-promoting effects by reducing the occurrence of prostate disease. Trestolone had been in phase II clinical trial for the andropause control. However, this development was discontinued.

Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (or 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA)), a synthetic, psychoactive drug also known as ecstasy that was used as a recreational drug. This drug acts as both a stimulant and psychedelic and exerts its effects in the brain on neurons that use the chemicals serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine to communicate with other neurons. In spite of the presence of this compound in the List of control and forbidden compounds, it was studied in psychotherapy for patients with chronic, treatment-resistant posttraumatic stress disorder. Initial results showed efficacy for the treatment approach, although further studies are needed.

Clostebol is a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid, a derivative of the natural hormone testosterone. Clostebol is a Schedule III controlled substance used medically in topical ophthalmologic and dermatologic treatments. Due to potential use as a performance-enhancing drug, clostebol is banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency.

m-Chlorophenylpiperazine (meta-chlorophenylpiperazine or mCPP) is a psychoactive substance, which is illegal in many countries but can be found on the black market. It induces endocrine, neurological and psychiatric effects. mCPP is a partial agonist at the 5-HT2C receptor but antagonized the 5-HT2B and 5-HT3 receptors. mCPP is also an active metabolite of the drug trazodone, which is used as an effective antidepressant drug with a broad therapeutic spectrum, including anxiolytic efficacy. It is known, that mCPP induces migraine attacks and that the decrease of food intake induced by the mCPP depends on its ability to act as a serotonin agonist is a brain.

Tenamfetamine (also known as 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (or MDA)) is a hallucinogen that acts as a serotonergic 5-HT2A receptor agonist and releases monoamines by interacting with monoamine plasmalemmal transporters. Tenamfetamine had no accepted medical use and it was scheduled as a controlled substance in the US in 1970. Despite appearing in illicit drug preparations, tenamfetamine has not been studied in humans in over 30 years. In 2010 was published article where was described the action of tenamfetaminea in a clinical trial in humans. In this trial was shown that the drug had induced mystical-type experiences and, in at least some individuals, closed-eye visions. However, during that experiment were impossible to provide strong evidence for changes in the efficacy of top-down influences on perception or acutely increased occipital cortex excitation.

MK-2866 (Gtx-024) is a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) for treatment of conditions such as muscle wasting and osteoporosis. It is a non-steroidal agent with anabolic activity designed to work like testosterone, thus promoting and/or maintaining libido, fertility, prostate growth, and muscle growth and strength. Mimicking testosterone's action, this agent may increase lean body mass, thereby ameliorating muscle wasting in the hypermetabolic state of cancer cachexia.

Metribolone, also known as methyltrienolone, an anabolic agent, binds to the androgen receptor and was studied for the treatment of advanced breast cancer. However, because of the liver toxicity, further development of this drug was discontinued. Now, this compound is used for research purpose as synthetic androgen.

Bromadoline is a selective agonist of a μ-opioid receptor with potent analgesic activity developed by the Upjohn company in the 1970s for pain management.

Lysergide (LSD) is a semi-synthetic hallucinogen and is one of the most potent drugs known. Recreational use became popular between the 1960s to 1980s, but is now less common. LSD was first synthesized by Albert Hoffman while working for Sandoz Laboratories in Basel in 1938. Some years later, during a re-evaluation of the compound, he accidentally ingested a small amount and described the first ‘trip’. During the 1950s and 1960s, Sandoz evaluated the drug for therapeutic purposes and marketed it under the name Delysid®. It was used for research into the chemical origins of mental illness. Recreational use started in the 1960s and is associated with the ‘psychedelic period’. LSD possesses a complex pharmacological profile that includes direct activation of serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine receptors. In addition, one of its chief sites of action is that of compound-specific (“allosteric”) alterations in secondary messengers associated with 5HT2A and 5HT2C receptor activation and changes in gene expression. The hallucinogenic effects of LSD are likely due to agonism at 5HT2A and 5HT2C receptors. LSD is also an agonist at the majority of known serotonin receptors, including 5HT1A, 5HT1B, 5HT1D, 5HT5A, 5HT6 and 5HT7 receptors. During the 1960s, LSD was investigated for a variety of psychiatric indications, including the following: as an aid in treatment of schizophrenia; as a means of creating a "model psychosis"; as a direct antidepressant; and as an adjunct to psychotherapy. LSD is listed in Schedule I of the United Nations 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances.

Mibolerone is a synthetic anabolic steroid. It binds both androgen and progesterone receptors and exerts both androgenic and progestagenic actions. Mibolerone (CHEQUE® Drops) was used in veterinary for estrous (heat) prevention in adult female dogs not intended primarily for breeding purposes. No prescription preparation, human or veterinary, is currently known to contain mibolerone worldwide.
