Aescin, the major active principle from Aesculus hippocastanum (Hippocastanaceae) the horse chestnut tree, has shown satisfactory evidence for a clinically significant activity in chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), haemorrhoids and post-operative oedema. In one controlled trial aescin was shown to be as effective as compression therapy as an alternative to medical treatment for CVI. The therapeutic benefit is well supported by a number of experimental investigations in different animal models, indicative of clearcut anti-oedematous, anti-inflammatory and venotonic properties, mainly related to the molecular mechanism of the agent, allowing improved entry of ions into channels, thus raising venous tension in both in vitro and in vivo conditions. Other mechanisms, i.e. release of PGF2 from veins, antagonism to 5-HT and histamine, reduced catabolism of tissue mucopolysaccharides, further underline the wide ranging mechanisms of the therapeutic activity of aescin. Aescin exists in two forms, α and β. β-aescin (b-escin) appears to be the active component of the mixture and is the molecular form present in major available pharmaceutical products. Beta-aescin has cytotoxic activity toward human colon adenocarcinoma cell lines.

Zuclopenthixol is indicated the management of the manifestations of schizophrenia and other mental illnesses with disturbances in thinking, emotional reactions and behaviour. It is also used to treat the manic phase of manic depressive illness. Zuclopenthixol, a thioxanthene derivative, has high affinity for both dopamine D1 receptors and dopamine D2 receptors. Zuclopenthixol also has high affinity for α1-adrenergic and 5-HT2 receptors. Zuclopenthixol (CLOPIXOL®) is avavilable in the form of tablets and solution for intramuscular injections.

Loxoprofen (INN) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug in the propionic acid derivatives group. It is marketed in Brazil, Mexico and Japan by Sankyo as its sodium salt, loxoprofen sodium, under the trade name Loxonin, Argentina as Oxeno and in India as Loxomac. It is available in these countries for oral administration, and a transdermal preparation was approved for sale in Japan on January 2006. It is usually used to treat rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. It is also used to reduce pain and inflammation after surgery, wounds and tooth removal, as well as to bring down fever or ease pain induced by acute inflammation of upper respiratory tract Loxoprofen is a prodrug. When administered orally, loxoprofen sodium hydrate is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract as an unchanged compound with only a modest gastric-mucosal irritation. It is then rapidly biotransformed into the active metabolite trans-OH form (SRS coordination) with a potent inhibitory effect on prostaglandin biosynthesis to exert its pharmacologic effects. Inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis constitutes the mechanism of action of this drug, the site of action being cyclooxygenase.

Fedrilate is a mucolytic drug. It was patented in 1963 and claimed to have a noteworthy anti-tussive activity.
Indium is a rare, soft silvery-white metal. It is used in some manufacturing process, butt here is no known biological role for indium in the human body. Although there are claims that indium increases hormone production, stimulates immune system function, and increases energy, there is no reliable scientific evidence to support such claims. In vitro, indium-III salts appears to have cytotoxic activity against melanoma. Indium cation (Indium-III), when complexed with 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine), has been employed as a radioactive platelet label for thrombus imaging in animals and man. The short half-life (2.8 d) and high yield of gamma photons of 111In make it ideal for in vitro counting and external imaging. Indium In 111 ProstaScint (Capromab Pendetide) is indicated as a diagnostic imaging agent in newly-diagnosed patients with biopsy-proven prostate cancer, thought to be clinically-localized after standard diagnostic evaluation (eg chest x-ray, bone scan, CT scan, or MRI), who are at high-risk for pelvic lymph node metastases. It is not indicated for patients who are not at high risk. Indium In 111 ProstaScint is also indicated as a diagnostic imaging agent in post-prostatectomy patients with a rising PSA and a negative or equivocal standard metastatic evaluation in whom there is a high clinical suspicion of occult metastatic disease.

Trimazosin was originated by Pfizer and was licensed to Bristol-Myers Squibb worldwide except for Canada, Mexico and the USA. Trimazosin is a quinazoline antihypertensive agent structurally related to the selective alpha 1-adrenoceptor blocker prazosin. Trimazosin is an alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist. Compared with prazosin, trimazosin was a less potent but more efficacious hypotensive agent. At doses which caused equal or even greater hypotensive effects than those caused by prazosin, trimazosin caused less inhibition of pressor responses to phenylephrine. When administered during a maximum hypotensive response to prazosin, trimazosin caused an additional fall in pressure. Trimazosin is an effective antihypertensive when given by itself or in combination with a diuretic. Its ability to induce vasodilation without concomitant sodium retention or stimulation of the renin axis may be an important factor in its effectiveness. Trimazosin has the potential to cause sustained improvement in left ventricular function, both at rest and during exercise, in patients with chronic congestive heart failure (CHF).
