Rapacuronium bromide (RAPLON), a nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent, is a negative allosteric modulator of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Rapacuronium bromide is indicated as an adjunct to general anesthesia to facilitate tracheal intubation and to provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgical procedures. There were no specific pharmacokinetic studies conducted to examine the drug-drug interactions of RAPLON. Due to the risk of fatal bronchospasm, it was withdrawn from the United States market less than 2 years after its FDA approval.

Iobenguane I-131 is a radioactive therapeutic agent. The drug contains radioactive isotope I-131, which decays by electron emission with a half-life of about 8 days. By the chemical structure, iobenguane is similar to the neurotransmitter norepinephrine and is subject to the same uptake and regulation pathways. After intravenous administration, iobenguane I-131 accumulates within pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma cells, and radiation from the radioactive decay causes cell death and tumor necrosis. Iobenguane I-131 was approved by the FDA for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with iobenguane scan positive, unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma who require systemic anticancer therapy. Iobenguane I-131 is investigated in clinical trials as a treatment of neuroblastoma, ganglioneuroblastoma and other tumors of neuroendocrinal origin.

CHEMICAL (ACHIRAL)



Methylparaben (E number E218) is preservative in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. It is completely absorbed through the skin or after ingestion and and it is hydrolyzed to para-hydroxybenzoic acid, and metabolites are rapidly excreted in the urine. Methylparaben is on the FDA generally regarded as safe list.
Niclosamide is an antihelminth used against tapeworm infections. It may act by the uncoupling of the electron transport chain to ATP synthase. The disturbance of this crucial metabolic pathway prevents creation of adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP), an essential molecule that supplies energy for metabolism. Niclosamide works by killing tapeworms on contact. Adult worms (but not ova) are rapidly killed, presumably due to uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation or stimulation of ATPase activity. The killed worms are then passed in the stool or sometimes destroyed in the intestine. Niclosamide may work as a molluscicide by binding to and damaging DNA. Niclosamide is used for the treatment of tapeworm and intestinal fluke infections: Taenia saginata (Beef Tapeworm), Taenia solium (Pork Tapeworm), Diphyllobothrium latum (Fish Tapeworm), Fasciolopsis buski (large intestinal fluke). Niclosamide is also used as a molluscicide in the control of schistosomiasis. Niclosamide was marketed under the trade name Niclocide, now discontinued.

Conditions:

Iodamide is an ionic monomeric iodinated radiographic contrast medium. It was used in many procedures and may be given intravenously or by other routes, for example by instillation into the bladder or uterus; it has also been used for computed tomography. It is usually given as a 24 to 65% solution of the meglumine salt, or as a mixture of the sodium and meglumine salts; solutions of the sodium salt have also been used. Iodamide is no longer marketed in the US.
