Tiludronic acid is a bisphosphonate characterized by a (4-chlorophenylthio) group on the carbon atom of the basic P-C-P structure common to all bisphosphonates. Tiludronate is a first generation (non-nitrogenous) bisphosphonate in the same family as etidronate and clodronate. Tiludronate affects calcium metabolism and inhibits bone resorption and soft tissue calcification. Of the tiludronate that is resorbed (from oral preparation) or infused (for intravenous drugs), about 50% is excreted unchanged by the kidney. The remainder has a very high affinity for bone tissue, and is rapidly absorbed onto the bone surface. Tiludronic acid is marketed under the tradename Skelid. In vitro studies indicate that tiludronate disodium acts primarily on bone through a
mechanism that involves inhibition of osteoclastic activity with a probable reduction in the
enzymatic and transport processes that lead to resorption of the mineralized matrix.
Bone resorption occurs following recruitment, activation, and polarization of osteoclasts.
Tiludronate disodium appears to inhibit osteoclasts through at least two mechanisms: disruption
of the cytoskeletal ring structure, possibly by inhibition of protein-tyrosine-phosphatase, thus
leading to detachment of osteoclasts from the bone surface and the inhibition of the osteoclastic proton pump. SKELID is indicated for treatment of Paget's disease of bone (osteitis deformans).

Eprosartan is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist used for the treatment of high blood pressure. It acts on the renin-angiotensin system in two ways to decrease total peripheral resistance. First, it blocks the binding of angiotensin II to AT1 receptors in vascular smooth muscle, causing vascular dilatation. Second, it inhibits sympathetic norepinephrine production, further reducing blood pressure. Eprosartan is indicated for the management of hypertension alone or in combination with other classes of antihypertensive agents. Also used as a first-line agent in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy, as well as a second-line agent in the treatment of congestive heart failure (only in those intolerant of ACE inhibitors).

Grepafloxacin is a monofluorinated quinolone with a cyclopropyl group at position 1, a 3-methyl-1piperazinyl group at position 7 and a methyl substitution at the 5 position, that was synthesized by Otsuka in Japan. It exhibited in vitro activity against a wide variety of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria including anaerobic species. The compound was reported to have a broad spectrum of activity, particularly against pathogens responsible for community-acquired respiratory infections including those caused by beta-lactam and macrolide-resistant strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae. Japanese researchers also reported that unlike other quinolones, grepafloxacin reached high levels in the bile and might also be useful in the treatment of biliary tract infection. Grepafloxacin was administered once daily and did not require dosage adjustment for renal insufficiency, but grepafloxacin tablets were contraindicated in patients with hepatic failure. Otsuka Pharmaceutical signed a licensing agreement for grepafloxacin with GlaxoSmithKline. According to this agreement, GlaxoSmithKline had marketing rights to grepafloxacin in Europe, USA, and certain other markets. Otsuka retained rights for Japan and some Asian countries

Dolasetron is an antinauseant and antiemetic agent, which is approved as a mesylate salt under the brand name anzement for the prevention of nausea and vomiting associated with moderately emetogenic cancer chemotherapy, including initial and repeat courses; and for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Dolasetron is a highly specific and selective serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. The serotonin 5-HT3 receptors are located on the nerve terminals of the vagus in the periphery and centrally in the chemoreceptor trigger zone of the area postrema. It is thought that chemotherapeutic agents produce nausea and vomiting by releasing serotonin from the enterochromaffin cells of the small intestine, and that the released serotonin then activates 5-HT3 receptors located on vagal efferents to initiate the vomiting reflex. This drug is not shown to have activity at other known serotonin receptors, and has low affinity for dopamine receptors. Dolasetron mesilate is rapidly reduced by carbonyl reductase to form its major pharmacologically active metabolite reduced dolasetron. In addition dolasetron was in the phase III clinical trials for the investigation, that intravenous using of dolasetron mesilate reduces pain intensity in patients with fibromyalgia.

Alatrofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic developed as a mesylate salt and was sold under brand name Trovan, but was withdrawn from the U.S. market in 2001. Trovan was indicated for the treatment of patients initiating therapy in in-patient health care facilities (i.e., hospitals and long term nursing care facilities) with serious, life- or limb-threatening infections caused by susceptible strains of the designated microorganisms in the conditions listed below. Nosocomial pneumonia caused by Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Haemophilus influenzae, or Staphylococcus aureus. Community acquired pneumonia caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus. Complicated intra-abdominal infections, including post-surgical infections caused by Escherichia coli. Gynecologic and pelvic infections including endomyometritis, parametritis, septic abortion and post-partum infections caused by Escherichia coli, Bacteroides fragilis, viridans group streptococci, Enterococcus faecalis. Complicated skin and skin structure infections, including diabetic foot infections, caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, or Proteus mirabilis. After intravenous administration, alatrofloxacin is rapidly converted to trovafloxacin, which is responsible for therapeutic effect. Plasma concentrations of alatrofloxacin are below quantifiable levels within 5 to 10 minutes of completion of a 1 hour infusion.

Emedastine is an antihistaminic agent, which was approved by FDA for the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis (Emadine brand name). The drug acts selectively on H1 receptors with lower affinity to H2 and H3 subtypes. Emedastine has a relatively unfavorable CNS effect profile. A small percentage of patients reported somnolence as an adverse effect after administration.
