Dexibuprofen, S(+)-ibuprofen, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and active dextrorotatory enantiomer of ibuprofen. Pharmacotherapeutic effects of dexibuprofen are more potent with lesser side effects than that of the racemic mixture of both isomers. In the acute and chronic treatment of osteoarthritis, it exhibits equivalent efficacy and tolerability as that of celecoxib. Dexibuprofen is a non-selective inhibitor of cyclooxygenase (COX), which is an enzyme involved in prostaglandin (mediators of pain and fever) and thromboxane (stimulators of blood clotting) synthesis via the arachidonic acid pathway. Dexibuprofen is a non-selective cyclooxygenase inhibitor and hence, it inhibits the activity of both COX-1 and COX-2. The inhibition of COX-2 activity decreases the synthesis of prostaglandins involved in mediating inflammation, pain, fever, and swelling while the inhibition of COX-1 is thought to cause some of the side effects of Dexibuprofen including GI ulceration. The major disadvantage of dexibuprofen is its low bioavailability, the account of its low solubility in physiological media.

Efaproxiral is a synthetic, small molecule, radiation-sensitising agent being developed by Allos Therapeutics primarily for the treatment of cancer. It works by binding and allosterically stabilising deoxyhaemoglobin in hypoxic regions of tumour tissue. This increases oxygen uptake of the tumour tissue and restores its sensitivity to radiation therapy, making therapy potentially more successful. But no benefit was seen for efaproxiral in phase III clinical trials. The only serious adverse effect detected was hypoxaemia. Efaproxiral is explicitly excluded from the 2012 World Anti-Doping Agency list of Prohibited Substances and is explicitly included in the Prohibited Methods section M1 as a forbidden procedure to alter the oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curve in order to allosterically modify haemoglobin.

Temocapril is a prodrug-type angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor not approved for use in the United States but is approved in Japan and South Korea. Temocapril can also be used in hemodialysis patients without risk of serious accumulation.

Dibunate (also known as Becantex, Becantyl, Linctussal, L-1633, and described as the 2,6-isomer or the 2,7-isomer) is an antitussive oral medication that was used in many counties all over the world. The current marketing status of the drug is unknown and is supposed to be "discontinued".

Potassium Trihydrogen Dioxalate is a Potassium salt used in photography, marble grinding, and in metal polishing. Potassium Trihydrogen Dioxalate is strongly irritating to eyes, mucous and gastrointestinal tract. Potassium Trihydrogen Dioxalate may cause cardiac failure and death after oral administration

Dihexyverine (Metaspas, Spasmodex) is an anticholinergic and direct smooth muscle relaxant (spasmolytic). Dihexyverine is sold in France under the brand name Spasmodex. It is indicated for the treatment of the gastrointestinal tract disorders. Dihexyverine is a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist.

Biphenamine is a local anesthetic with antibacterial and antifungal properties. It has been used in the treatment of seborrheic scalp disorders.

Zorubicin is a benzoylhydrazone derivative of the anthracycline antineoplastic antibiotic daunorubicin, but it introduces lower cardiomyopathy and bone marrow toxicity. Zorubicin intercalates into DNA and interacts with topoisomerase II, thereby inhibiting DNA replication and repair as well as RNA and protein synthesis. The cytotoxic effect results from intercalation between DNA pairs. To minimize toxicity, individualized dose regimens are given preferentially over prolonged periods of time by carefully inspecting i.v. administration to prevent extravasation.

Bietamiverine is an antispasmodic agent.

Cefodizime is a third-generation cephalosporin with a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity. Administered intravenously or intramuscularly 1 to 4 g of cefodizime daily for an average of 7 to 10 days produces a clinical cure in 80 to 100% of patients (adults, elderly or children) with upper or lower respiratory tract infections or urinary tract infections. In comparative trials cefodizime was as effective as other third generation cephalosporins. A single dose of cefodizime (1 or 2 g) is also useful in treating lower urinary tract infections. Urogenital gonorrhoea, whether caused by beta-lactamase producing or non-beta-lactamase producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae, is very effectively treated by single dose therapy with intramuscular cefodizime. Preliminary data from a small number of patients indicates that cefodizime may also be useful in the treatment of otitis media, sinusitis and gynaecological infections, and for the prophylaxis or treatment of surgical infections. The clinical efficacy of cefodizime compared to other third generation cephalosporins is superior to that predicted from in vitro results. This superior activity of cefodizime may be related to the relatively long elimination half-life of the drug or its ability to modify some functions of the immune system--a potentially important finding awaiting further investigation. Cefodizime is well tolerated and has a tolerability profile similar to other members of its class with systemic adverse events being primarily gastrointestinal or dermatological. Cefodizime may be more convenient to administer than some other agents of its class as it may be given once or twice daily. While there are no trials comparing cefodizime to other third generation cephalosporins in immunosuppressed populations, preliminary information indicates cefodizime may be useful in this group. Cefodizime targets penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) 1A/B, 2, and 3 resulting in the eventual death of the bacterial cell. In vivo experimental models of infection showed that bacterial clearance by this drug is at least as effective compared with other 3rd generation cephalosporins. It has a similar adverse effect profile to other 3rd generation cephalosporins which is mainly being limited to gastrointestinal or dermatological side effects. It is not currently approved by the FDA for use in the United States.
