Tertatolol is a beta-blocker with unique renal vasodilatatory effects, mainly at the level of the microcirculation. The mechanisms of this renal vasodilatation are not fully understood but might involve renal 5-HT1A receptor stimulation. It is a potent competitive antagonist of 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptors. Tertatolol inhibits human mesangial cell proliferation. Biochemical surveillance did not show any adverse metabolic effects of tertatolol. Tertatolol is rapidly and totally absorbed by the gastro-intestinal tract with a low presystemic metabolism, and the bioavailability is not affected by food intake. It is used as antihypertension agent.

Bucumolol is a beta-adrenergic antagonist. It can be used in the treatment of myocardial ischemia and hypertension.

Butofilolol (trade name Cafide) is a beta-blocker drug for the treatment of high blood pressure (essential hypertension). Butofilolol constitute a good therapeutic approach to hypertension in plethoric subjects when the weight reduction has failed to correct it adequately

Alifedrine, a beta-adrenergic partial agonist, significantly improved performance of the failing heart. Alifedrine resulted in a significant dose-dependent increase in cardiac output. There were significant reductions in peripheral resistance, but little observed change in arterial pressure. With intravenous alifedrine, there were significant increases in stroke volume with little change in heart rate. With the 40 mg oral dose, there was a small increase in heart rate There were no clinically or statistically significant changes in arterial (non-invasive), pulmonary artery, pulmonary capillary or right atrial pressures with any dose of alifedrine. No significant arrhythmias were noted clinically with the doses studied.

Befunolol is a beta-adrenergic receptor blocker approved in Japan for the treatment of open-angle glaucoma. The current drug status is unknown.

Epanolol has been shown in animal models to be a selective beta-adrenoceptor partial agonist with agonist activity about 20 to 25% of that of the full agonist isoprenaline. Epanolol is a once-daily agent for the treatment of angina pectoris. The pharmacodynamic consequences in man of the degree of agonist activity possessed by the beta 1-selective partial agonist epanolol include little reductions at rest in heart rate, blood pressure, various measures of cardiac haemodynamic parameters, peripheral blood flow and renal function. On exercise there is attenuation of the heart rate and systolic blood pressure responses, with less perceived exertion than with atenolol. The lack of significant accumulation of epanolol indicates that no alteration of dose is necessary when using epanolol in elderly patients with normal renal and hepatic function.

Trimetoquinol hydrochloride dilates bronchial muscle selectively by stimulating Beta 2-receptors. It is used for the relief of bronchoconstriction associated with bronchitis, asthmatic bronchitis and bronchial asthma. Since the concurrent use of the drug with catecholamines such as Epinephrine and Isoproterenol may induce arrythmia or cardiac arrest in some cases, concurrent use is not recommended. Adverse reactions : Palpitation may occur occasionally, and alteration of blood pressure and precordial pain may appear rarely; headache may occur occasionally; tremor, dizziness, feverish sensation may also be encountered in a rare incidence; occasionally, nausea and anorexia may appear.

Zinterol (MJ-9184-1) is an beta-adregenrgic agonist demostrated activity toward beta1-3 receptors. Oral zinterol caused a fast-appearing and long-lasting bronchodilator effect in patients with with stable chronic obstructive lung disease, however it seems development of zinterol was discontitued.

Tobicillin (TBPC) is an ester derivative of penicillin G. It is a beta-Lactam antibiotic, peptidoglycan biosynthesis inhibitor. TBPC was shown to be the effective antibiotic for the treatment of enterococcicosis in yellowtail.

Biapenem (INN) is a carbapenem antibiotic. It has in vitro activity against anaerobes. Approved in Japan in 2001. Biapenem is a carbopenems antibiotic which suppresses bacterial growth by inhibiting the enzymes responsible for bacterial cell wall synthesis, and shows broad-spectrum antibacterial activity both against gram-positive bacteria and gram-negative bacteria. Biapenem is stable to dehaloperoxidase-I (DHP-I) and can not be administered together with DHP-I inhibitor. This product is applicable to the treatment of a variety of infections caused by sensitive bacteria: septicemia, pneumonia, lung abscess, secondary infections resulting from chronic respiratory disease, cystitis, pyelonephritis, peritonitis, appendagitis, etc. Biapenem is generally well tolerated. The most common adverse events in clinical trials were skin eruptions/rashes, nausea and diarrhoea.
