Broxaldine, also known as brobenzoxaldine, is a dibromo derivative of quinaldine. It was used in combination with other halogenated hydroxyquinoline compound broxyquinoline (INTESTOPAN) for the treatment of intestinal amoebiasis and childhood diarrhea. In a specific ratio of 5/1, they were shown to act synergistically against several pathogens.

Adicillin (Penicillin N) is a penicillin derivative produced by Cephalosporium acremonium. Adicillin is dextrorotatory. Inactivated by penicillinase as is penicillin G, but differs from the common penicillin by its antibacterial activity and hydrophilic character. Active against Sarcina lutea, Proteus vulgaris, Salmonella typhimurium, Diplococcus pneumoniae. Shows practically no activity against B. subtilis and Staph. aureus. The toxicity is somewhat less than that of penicillin G, although penicillin N is excreted more slowly.

Diminazene is an aromatic diamidine derived from Surfen C. Diminazene is used as aceturate salt. Diminazene is highly active against both Trypanosoma and Babesia spp. It is also of value in the treatment of theileriosis due to Theileria annulata. Diminazene has become the most commonly used therapeutic agent for trypanosomiasis in animals. It is said to be effective in canine, ovine and bovine babesiosis and, unlike some drugs, is less susceptible to relapse. It may also possess antibacterial properties. Diminazene binds to trypanosomal kDNA. This binding does not occur by intercalation but via specific interaction with sites rich in adenine-thymine (A-T) base pairs. Diminazene specifically inhibits mitochondrial type II topoisomerase in viable trypanosomes. Thus, inhibition of DNA replication may also occur via this interaction. Diminazene is extensively distributed in the body of treated animals. Residues of the compound may persist for several weeks, principally in the liver and kidneys, and also, to a lesser extent, in the gastrointestinal tract, lungs, muscle, brain and fat.

Subendazole is an antiparasitic and antispirochete agent used to treat helminth infection.

Biclotymol, a phenolic antiseptic has multiple actions: it has bacteriostatic, bactericidal, anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity. Biclotymol is recommended as a prompt, effective and safe first-line option for the treatment of sore throat.

Trospectomycin is an aminocyclitol antibiotic similar in structure to spectinomycin. The drug was originally developed by Pharmacia & Upjohn. It is a 6'-propyl analogue of spectinomycin, and lacks the aminosugars in glycosidic linkage which are thought to be responsible for the ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity associated with the aminoglycosides. The mechanism of action of trospectomycin is similar to that of its parent compound, spectinomycin: it binds to the bacterial 30S ribosome and inhibits protein synthesis. The transport mechanism for its delivery to its target site does not appear to be oxygen dependent, and this explains the in-vitro activity of trospectomycin against anaerobic organisms. Trospectomycin has activity against a broad spectrum of pathogenic organisms including Streptococcus, Haemophilus, Gardnerella, Neisseria, Peptococcus, Peptostreptococcus, Bacteroides, Mobiluncus, Chlamydia, Mycoplasma and Ureaplasma spp. Results of in-vivo testing suggest potential utility in a variety of clinical conditions including non-gonococcal urethritis, chlamydial cervicitis, gonorrhoea, pelvic inflammatory disease, pneumonia, anaerobic infections and meningitis. Trospectomycin progressed to late stage clinical trials for treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease (chlamydia) before being abandoned for commercial reasons as the third generation cephalosporins and second generation macrolides in development and use were judged superior at the time.

The organophosphate compound Naftalofos is an anthelmintic drug. In Australia it is approved for veterinary use. Naftalofos has been used for many years to control nematodes of livestock. Naftalofos boluses are used against nematodes of cattle. Naphthalophos (36.6 to 51.2 mg/kg) was also 93% efficient against the multiple resistant strains of Trichostrongylus colubriformis in sheep. Naphthalophos showed efficacy against Haemonchus contortus (> 99 %),Trichostrongylus axei (99.3 %), Teladorsagia circumcincta (97.8 %), Trichostrongylus colubriformis (99.2 %), Cooperia punctata/curticei/pectinata (90.4 %), Nematodirus spathiger (89.2 %) and Oesophagostomum venulosum/columbianum (93.7 %). Naphthalophos represents an effective therapeutic alternative for incorporation into worm control programmes.

Rifalazil (also known as KRM-1648) is a derivative of the antibiotic rifamycin. This orally administered ansamycin is under evaluation for treatment of various bacterial infections. Rifalazil kills bacterial cells by blocking off the β-subunit in RNA polymerase. This drug was originally developed as a therapeutic agent to replace rifampin in the treatment of tuberculosis. It also showed potential to treat indications caused by chlamydia trachomatis and chlamydia pneumoniae. Furthermore, it has been suggested as a potential drug in the treatment of gastric ulcer disease (which is caused by Helicobacter pylori) and antibiotic-associated colitis. Phase II studies evaluated the efficacy and safety of this drug in patients with chlamydia trachomatis and chlamydia seropositive patients. A phase 3 study was initiated including chlamydia seropositive patients. However, the development of rifalazil was terminated in 2013 due to severe side effects.

Resorantel (HOE 296V) is an anthelmintic agent. Resorantel was found to be highly effective against Houttuynia struthionis (a tapeworm, parasite of the small intestine) in ostriches. Resorantel also showed anthelmintic efficacy against Thysaniezia giardi and Avitellina spp. (both tapeworms) when tested in sheep. Similar results have been found in goats and cattle.
