Dixanthogen was used topically against scabies, but now this treatment is not available.

Iophenoxic acid, an iodinated marker, and a radiocontrast agent used to investigate the feeding behavior of bait-consuming animals. This compound has high-affinity binding to the human albumin and has a long half-life in the body that is why this drug as withdrawn from the clinical use.

Sulfobromophthalein (BSP) is a dye with a high affinity for organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) and has been used as a substrate for multidrug resistance associated protein 2 (Mrp2). BSP is transported into hepatocytes by OATPs and, after conjugation to glutathione, is excreted into bile by Mrp2.3 It was found to inhibit the aldo-keto reductase ARK1C20. Sulfobromophthalein (BSP) is used in diagnosis of hepatic disorders.It is also used for the quantitative determination of proteins.

Iotroxic acid (INN), also known as meglumine iotroxate (BAN) (Biliscopin) for infusion is indicated for radiological examination of the hepatic and biliary ducts and gallbladder when examination by oral technique is unsuccessful or inappropriate. Following intravenous administration Biliscopin is rapidly excreted, mainly by the liver into the bile. Visualisation of the hepatic and common bile ducts and the gallbladder can, therefore, be achieved. Visualisation of the biliary ducts is usually possible 30-60 minutes after completion of administration. In vitro meglumine iotroxate binds to plasma proteins to the extent of 60-90% depending on concentration. In animals it crosses the placental barrier. This agent is the single intravenous cholangiographic agent, which is currently available in Australia.

Cyromazine, an insect growth regulator, affects larval and pupal cuticles in dipterans and some other insects. The mode of action of this aminotriazine is not known yet, though it has been shown not to inhibit the synthesis of chitin and cuticular proteins. Cyromazine may, however, act on some step(s) of sclerotization of the cuticle. Cyromazine is not a cholinesterase inhibitor. As an insect growth regulator, cyrozine exerts its toxic action by affecting the nervous system of the immature stages (larvae) of certain insects.

Alizarin is an anthraquinone is an organic compound that has been used as a red dye, principally for dyeing textile fabrics since ancient times. Historically it was derived from the roots of the madder plant Rubia tinctorum, in which it occurs combined with the sugars xylose and glucose. Laboratory methods of preparing alizarin from anthraquinone were discovered in 1868, and, upon commercial introduction of the synthetic dye in 1871, the natural product disappeared from the market for textile dyes. At present alizarin is commonly used in biomedical studies involving bone growth, osteoporosis, bone marrow, calcium deposits in the vascular system, cellular signaling, gene expression, tissue engineering, and mesenchymal stem cells. Alizarin precipitates free calcium, and tissue block containing calcium stain red immediately when immersed in alizarin. It is approved by FDA as a Calcium test system for clinical chemistry. Alizarin red, has been used for a quantitative sweat measure to characterize the sweat distribution in patients with syncope, anxiety, and POTS.

Iodine-labeled ioglycamic acid (Bilivistan or Biligram) has been used as a contrast medium for intravenous cholangiocystography.

Ioxitalamic acid is a contrast media, which was used as a meglumine salt under the name Telebrix for intravenous urography; computed tomography; digital angiography; angiocardiography (ventriculography, coronary angiography). The drug is no longer available on the market.

Perfluorobutane (PFB) is an inert, high-density colorless gas used as a replacement for Halon 1301 in fire extinguishers, as well as the gas component for newer generation microbubble ultrasound contrast agents. Perflubutane has been used in clinical trials for the diagnostic of Liver Mass, Liver Diseases, Liver Metastasis, Portal Hypertension, and Peripheral Artery Disease. Perflubutane perfusion echocardiography has the potential to be a cost-effective and convenient alternative to nuclear perfusion imaging. Ultrasound enhanced with Perflubutane was able to image myocardial perfusion and obtain information that appears comparable to nuclear imaging.

Ioglicinate, contrast agent, is used in computed tomography.
