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.

FLOPRISTIN is one of the components of the experimental drug NXL103 (XRP 2868), along with linopristin. Both are semi-synthetic streptogramin antibiotics derived from the Streptomyces genus. NXL103 has a spectrum of antibacterial activity that indicates it has the potential to be effective in the treatment of skin and skin structure infections, including those caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, as well as community-acquired pneumonia. NXL103 has completed Phase II trials.

Pexacerfont is a highly potent and selective CRF1 receptor antagonist that displays no agonist properties. It is specific for CRF1 receptors and has more than 1,000- fold less affinity for CRF2 receptors, and more than 100- fold less affinity for the CRF-binding protein. In extensive preclinical studies, pexacerfont has been shown to inhibit specific binding of CRF to rat, dog, monkey, and human CRF1 receptors. The functional anxiolytic effects of CRF1 receptor occupancy were demonstrated in two rodent models of anxiety, situational anxiety and elevated plus maze paradigms. Pexacerfont did not demonstrate efficacy compared to placebo for the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder in human. The bogus taste tests suggested some protective effect of pexacerfont against eating after a laboratory stressor. Pexacerfont had been in phase II clinical trials for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome and depression depression.

Levopropylcillin – is a penicillin derivative, L-enantiomer of antibiotic Propicillin. Levopropylcillin properties are similar to benzylpenicillin particularly used in streptococcal infections, not resistant to penicillinase. Levopropylcillin is acid resistant and can be used orally as the potassium salt.

Droxinavir is hydroxyethylurea human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease inhibitor. Position 88 of HIV-1 protease gene plays a key role in the interaction between droxinavir and the protease molecule. A mutation in this position, located outside the active site, confers resistance to the hydroxyethylurea inhibitor droxinavir. The V82A and N88S substitutions conferred droxinavir resistance on HIV-1 recombinant variants. Positions 82 and 88 are reported to be variable in natural populations isolated from patients who have not been treated with protease inhibitors. Droxinavir had been in preclinical phase for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. However, this study was discontinued.

As a narcotic antagonist similar in action to naloxone, DIPRENORPHINE is used to remobilize animals after analgesia by super-potent opioid analgesics such as etorphine and carfentanil. It is not used in humans. Diprenorphine binds approximately equally to the three subtypes of opioid receptors (mu, delta, and kappa) and antagonizes them. This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenanthrenes and derivatives. These are polycyclic compounds containing a phenanthrene moiety, which is a tricyclic aromatic compound with three non-linearly fused benzene. The therapeutic efficacy of many other compounds can be decreased when used in combination with Diprenorphine (54 compounds mentioned on www.drugbank.ca).

Monometacrine is an acridan derivative and Dimethacrine metabolite patented by pharmaceutical company Siegfried A.-G. as an antidepressant.

Ethylmethylthiambutene is a potent analgesic compatible with morphine. It possesses addiction liability similar to that of morphine.
