Loperamide Oxide is a prodrug of loperamide, an antidiarrheal agent, patented by Belgian pharmaceutical company Janssen Pharmaceutica N. V. as an antidiarrheal agent. Loperamide oxide is reduced to loperamide and has the same antisecretory potency as loperamide in jejunum and colon. In clinical trials, Loperamide oxide provides a safe and effective treatment for chronic diarrhea associated with Crohn's disease. Loperamide Oxide is used in the Netherlands for the treatment of acute diarrhea in adults under brand name Arestal.

Etofylline [7-(2-hydroxyethyl)theophylline] is a N-7-substituted derivative of theophylline, a smooth muscle relaxant. Etofylline is used to relieve bronchoconstriction. It may act as a phosphodiesterase inhibitor and adenosine receptor antagonist.

Acefylline is a stimulant drug of the xanthine chemical class. It acts as an adenosine receptor antagonist. Acephylline piperazine is a theophylline derivative with a direct bronchodilator action. It has the advantages over theophylline in being far less toxic and producing minimal gastric irritation. It is indicated for the treatment of asthma, emphysema, acute and chronic bronchitis associated with bronchospasm.Acefylline relaxes smooth muscles, relieves bronchospasm & has a stimulant effect on respiration. It stimulates the myocardium & central nervous system, decreases peripheral resistance & venous pressure & causes diuresis. The mechanism of action is still not clear, inhibition of phosphodiesterase with a resulting increase in intracellular cyclic AMP does occur, but not apparently at concentrations normally used for clinical effect. Other proposed mechanisms of action include adenosine receptor antagonism, prostaglandin antagonism & effects on intracellular calcium. Sodium phenobarbital is a non-selective central nervous system depressant that is primarily used as sedative-hypnotic.

Mefenidramium is an active ingredient of the Danish drug Paradryl that was used to treat pruritus with varicella and as a palliative treatment of estival rhinitis in children.

Xanthinol (xanthinol nicotinate) is a xanthine derivative, peripheral vasodilator agent. It exerts it`s pharmacological action by acting as a vasodilator and improves blood flow to brain, arteries, and to the periphery. It increases brain glucose metabolism and thus improves brain ATP levels. It stimulates memory and concentration elevates brain energy levels. Indications for Xanthinol Nicotinate: 1. Peripheral vascular sclerosis 2. Cerebral circulatory disorders 3. Arteriosclerosis 4. Endarteritis obliterans 5. Short term memory disorders 6. Mental flagging 7. Anti ageing memory support 8. Diabetic angiopathy 9. Diabetic gangrene 10. Hyperlipidaemia 11. Intermittent claudication Side Effects of Xanthinol Nicotinate: 1. Flushing 2. Feeling of warmth 3. Nausea 4. Heart burn 5. Vomiting 6. Itching of skin For 30 years, Xanthinol nicotinate has been on the market for the treatment of impaired brain function, i.e., organic brain syndromes of various etiologies. Controlled double-blind phase-III clinical trials have shown that xantinol nicotinate is also an effective drug in the treatment of dementia. Xanthinol nicotinate is also helpful in the management of leg ulcers associated with haemoglobinopathies. Xanthinol was approved as a drug in 1998 in Canada and nowadays its status is cancelled post marketing. The positively charged xanthinol ion is thought to help the transportation of the nicotinic acid into the cell since the later cannot freely diffuse through the cell membrane. The mechanism of action is thought to be related to present influence in the cell metabolism through the nucleotides NAD and NADP. Also, the nicotinic acid is a coenzyme for a lot of proteins involved in tissue respiration (Embden-Meyerhof and citrate cycle). The effect of xanthinol nicotinate causes an increase in glucose metabolism and energy gain.

Potassium canrenoate (INN, JAN) or canrenoate potassium (USAN) (brand names Venactone, Soldactone), the potassium salt of canrenoic acid, is an aldosterone antagonist of the spirolactone group. Like spironolactone, it is a prodrug, which is metabolized to canrenone in the body. Potassium canrenoate is not licensed in the UK, but may sometimes be prescribed off-licence to treat oedema. It is given intravenously. Potassium canrenoate is a mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist. The blockade with MR antagonist have beneficial effects in patients with heart failure and myocardial infarction, often attributed to blocking aldosterone action in the myocardium.

Fe-59 is an isotope of iron. It has a half-life of 44.5 days and decays by emitting a beta particle. In medicine, ferrous citrate Fe 59 is indicated, by intravenous administration, to determine various parameters of the kinetics of iron metabolism, including plasma iron clearance, plasma iron turnover rate, and the utilization of iron in new red blood cells. An oxidized form of iron cation, ferric cation Fe59, is also used to study the processes of iron metabolism.

Aurotioprol acid is a gold salt. It was used as an antirheumatic agent and marketed by Solvay under tradename Allochrysine. Aurotioprol was administered by intramuscular injections.

Fazadinium (used as a bromide salt) is a muscle relaxant, which was applied in anesthesia under the name Fazadon. The current marketing status is unknown and the drug is supposed to be discontinued.
