Urea nitrate is a powerful explosive. It has not found use as a legitimate explosive but is commonly used as an improvised explosive.

Isosorbide is an effective hyperosmotic agent which can be administered orally without gastrointestinal irritation. It is absorbed quantitatively and more than 95% of the administered dose is excreted unchanged in the urine. Oral administration of a 50% solution to rabbits or man results in prompt increases in osmolarity of the serum and profound decreases in intraocular pressure. The drug proves useful in acute primary and secondary glaucomas, and as preoperative medication for various surgical procedures including cataract extraction, retinal detachment, corneal transplant, and glaucoma operations.

DIMETHYL ISOSORBIDE is an inactive component of VANOS® Cream indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses in patients 12 years of age or older.

Rolitetracycline nitrate is an antibiotic formed by N-aminomethylation of the carboxamide group of tetracycline. Rolitetracycline passively diffuses through porin channels in the bacterial membrane and reversibly binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit, preventing binding of tRNA to the mRNA-ribosome complex, and thus interfering with protein synthesis. It is formulated for intravenous or intramuscular injections and is used in cases requiring high concentrations or when oral administration is impractical. In combinations with chloramphenicol and colistin, it is used as the eye drops for the treatment of external eye infections such as catarrhal conjunctivitis, purulent, trachoma, blepharitis, blepharoconjunctivitis, bacterial keratitis, septic corneal ulcers.
