Levophacetoperane is a piperidine derivative. Levofacetoperane is a sympathomimetic central nervous system stimulant and is commonly used to treat depression. Levophacetoperane is also a known analeptic and is strongly linked to apnea reversal in dogs after a single intravenous injection.

Delmadinone is a steroid with progestogenic, anti-androgenic and weak glucocorticoid action, synthesized in Syntex S.A. Acetate ester of delmadinone is used in veterinary under tradenames Tardak for cats and dogs for the treatment of excessive or aberrant sexual behaviour, including vagrancy, for the relief of prostatic hypertrophy, circum-anal tumors and for the treatment of certain forms of aggressiveness, nervousness, epileptiform seizures and corticosteroid-resistant pruritus. Delmadinone acetate blocks androgen receptors inhibit 5-reductase, which catalyzes the transformation of testosterone to the more potent androgen 5-dihydrotestosterone and decreases the production of testosterone by inhibiting gonadotropin release.

Clogestone Acetate (AY-11440) is a steroidal progestin that was synthesized in 1964 and was investigated as a progestin-only contraceptive but was never marketed.

Levonantradol is a synthetic cannabinoid analogue of delta (9)-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta(9)-THC) administered intramuscularly. It has antiemetic and anti-analgesic properties. Although its precise mechanism of action is unknown, levonantradol appears to bind and activate the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and/or CB2. Antiemetic effect of levonantradol significantly superior to chlorpromazine. However, its adverse central effects limit its utility. The main adverse events are drowsiness and dizziness. Levonantradol, administered intramuscularly to the patients suffering from postoperative pain, manifested significant analgesic efficacy. Analgesia persisted for more than 6 h with the 2.5 and 3 mg doses of levonantradol. Drowsiness was frequent but few other psychoactive effects were reported.

Thyromedan is a thyroalkanoic acid derivative with hypocholesterolemic activity. In clinical trials, Thyromedan in daily doses of 8 to 32 mg caused a decrease in serum cholesterol levels. The serum total triglycerides and the α- and β-lipoprotein partition of cholesterol and triglycerides were unaffected.

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.

Ametantrone (AM) is a synthetic 9,10-anthracenedione bearing two (hydroxyethylamino)ethylamino residues at positions 1 and 4; along with other anthraquinones and anthracyclines, it shares a polycyclic intercalating moiety and charged side chains that stabilize DNA binding. Ametantrone is anticancer drug candidate targeting DNA. Ametantrone is a topoisomerase II inhibitor of the anthrapyrazole family. Ametantrone induces interstrand DNA cross-links in HeLa S3 cells. These cross-links were observed only in cellular system suggesting that metabolism of the drugs is a necessary step leading to DNA cross-linking. Ametantrone appeared to be very well tolerated and easy to handle. A dose-schedule of 135 mg/m2 q 2–3 weeks was recommended for phase II studies in solid tumors.

Pyrroliphene is a dialkylaminodiphenylbutanol ester with antitussive and analgesic activities. In clinical trials the major side effect of Pyrroliphene was sedation, and the other side effect liabilities were similar to those of morphine.

Quindecamine (also known as UCL-1407) is quinaldine derivative with antibiotic and fungicidal activity. Treatment of rats and mice with Quindecamine (250 mg/kg/ day) each day for 4 weeks followed by 500 mg/kg/day for 2 more weeks reduced spontaneous motility and body weight but produced no pathological abnormalities of the various organs studied. In vitro, the drug showed very good activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus hemolyticus, Candida albicans, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and T. vaginalis. The drug had very good activity in 180 human subjects with various bacterial and mycotic diseases of the skin and mucosa when applied as a 1% salve.
