Cytarabine ocfosfate (commercial name: Starasid) is a prodrug having stearyl group attached to phosphoric acid at 5' position of arabinose moiety of cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C). This drug is given orally. The mode of action is in the inhibition of DNA synthesis after conversion to Ara-CTP as in Ara-C. The drug is metabolized in the liver, producing the intermediate metabolite, C-C3PCA which is converted to Ara-C gradually. This property results in the maintenance of relatively long time the blood Ara-C levels. This was proved to be active clinically against acute leukemia and MDS.

Etozolin is a diuretic used in Europe under the names Diulozin, Elkapin, Etopinil for the treatment of edema and hypertension. The exact mechanism of etozolin action is unknown. The current marketing status of the drug is unavailable and is supposed to be discontinued.

Clometocillin, one of the forms of penicillin, was active against pen-I or pen-R pneumococci and was used in children. The modern information about its application is not available.

Tiazotic acid is an antioxidant. As tiazotic acid morpholinium salt it is marketed under the brand names Thiotriazoline, Tiokor among others in Russia, Ukraine, Uzbekistan as the treatment of ischemic heart diseases. It is proposed to be a hepatoprotective, wound-healing and antiviral agent. A comparative international multicenter randomized trial, assessed anti-anginal anti ischemic efficacy and safety of Trimetazidine (60 mg/d) and Thiotriazoline (600 mg/d) in symptomatic patients with chronic ischemic heart disease receiving the first line therapy. The study assessed the efficacy of the two drugs on total exercise duration, time to 1-mm ST segment depression, the number of angina attacks and nitroglycerin tablets consumed amount. Both drugs have demonstrated clinical efficacy equal for all primary and secondary endpoints. Thiotriazoline was also used for the he correction of hepatotoxicity during combined chemoradiotherapy for cancer patients.

(S)-Sulindac is the (S)-enantiomer of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) Sulindac, that is marketed in the U.S. by Merck as Clinoril. Sulindac is a prodrug, derived from sulfinyl-indene, that is converted in vivo to an active sulfide compound by liver methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msr). The (Msr) family of enzymes includes two major classes, MsrA and MsrB, that specifically reduce the S- and R-epimers of Sulindac. Reduction of (S)-Sulindac to Sulindac Sulfide catalyzed by methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr)-A. The oxidation of both epimers to sulindac sulfone is catalyzed primarily by the microsomal cytochrome P450 (P450) system. (S)-Sulindac increases the activity of the P450 system better than (R)-sulindac, but both epimers increase primarily the enzymes that oxidize (R)-sulindac. Both epimers can protect normal lung cells against oxidative damage and enhance the killing of lung cancer cells exposed to oxidative stress.

Tiaprofenic acid is a non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory, analgesic compound, which nonselectively inhibits cyclooxygenase protein. Tiaprofenic acid was approved in Europe for the symptomatic relief of arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and other inflammatory-rheumatic disorders as well as the painful conditions after injury.

Ritiometan, an antibacterial agent, is marketed under the trade name Necyrane for the treatment of colds and rhinopharyngitis for adults and children over 30 months.

Sennoside B is a member of the class of sennosides that used as the laxative. Sennosides are used all over the world as a treatment for constipation. Sennosides are hydroxyanthracene glycosides derived from Senna leaves. The phytoconstituents principally responsible for its characteristic action are two anthraquinone glycosides namely; Sennoside A and Sennoside B. Sennoside A and B together are responsible for up to 40 – 60% activity of crude senna. They have identical molecular weights and formulae and are in fact diastereomers with the same substituent (H) located in opposite directions. Sennoside B has reported that it has inhibitory effects on PDGF receptor signaling and cell proliferation induced by PDGF-BB in human osteosarcoma cells.

TIANEPTINE, a tricyclic antidepressant, is a drug used for the treatment of the major depressive disorder. It was discovered by The French Society of Medical Research in the 1980s. Unlike other tricyclic antidepressants, TIANEPTINE is a selective serotonin reuptake enhancer with minimal effects on norepinephrine and dopamine uptake. Also, it is a full agonist at the mu-opioid and delta-opioid receptors with no effect at the kappa-opioid receptors. Selective mu-opioid agonists typically induce euphoria, which may contribute to TIANEPTINE's antidepressant effect. It is marketed as Coaxil/Stablon in many European countries, but it is not available in the US.

Patent Blue V (E-131) is a synthetic dye used as a food coloring. In Europe, it is used in beverages, preserves of red fruits, desserts, confectionary. In medicine, Patent Blue V is used as a contrast agent for visualizing lymphatic vessels. Patent Blue V is also used in dentistry in a disclosing tablet to demonstrate the presence of plaque on teeth.
