CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)

Chlorbenzoxamine is an antimuscarinic agent used for the treatment of peptic ulcer disease and other functional gastrointestinal disorders. Chlorbenzoxamine, a structural analog of hydroxyzine, produces a unique antagonism of gastric ulceration induced in rats and dogs by various procedures. This effect is not accompanied by a significant gastric secretory depression or a reduction in gastric acid concentration. Chlorbenzoxamine does not show anticholinergic or antihistaminic activity in vitro but does produce a nonspecific depression of isolated smooth muscle. The antiulcer effect of chlorbenzoxamine in rats is abolished by hypophysectomy suggesting a central or endocrine mechanism of action.

Pinaverium, known under the brand name DICETEL, is a spasmolytic agent used for functional gastrointestinal disorders. It is a quaternary ammonium compound that acts as an atypical calcium antagonist to restore normal bowel function. It is shown to relieve GI spasm and pain, transit disturbances and other symptoms related to motility disorders and may be considered as effective first-lline therapy for patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Pinaverium is also used to help relieve symptoms caused by certain disorders of the gallbladder associated with secretion of bile. Pinaverium bromide is the common ingredient in formulations, mostly as oral tablets. Although it is not a currently approved drug by the FDA, pinaverium is available in over 60 countries including Canada. DICETEL® (pinaverium bromide) is a calcium antagonist which inhibits the calcium influx by blocking the voltage-dependent calcium channel at the smooth muscle cell level. It possesses a high degree of selectivity for the intestinal smooth muscle.

Emepronium bromide (Cetiprina) is a quarternary ammonium compound with anticholinergic effects. It is mainly used in the treatment of urinary frequency, urge and urge incontinence and is usually administered orally and occasionally intramuscularly. Emepronium bromide was introduced into Britain, after having been used in Sweden for a number of years. The drug was advocated especially for elderly patients suffering from nocturia and urgency with incontinence, when these were due to causes other than obstruction. It was also advocated for enuresis and hypertonic bladder states following surgery or radiotherapy.

Poldine is an antimuscarinic drug, containing quaternary nitrogen. It is a selective inhibitor of gastric secretion. Administration of poldine leads to a 50% reduction of the volume and acid output of gastric juice without troublesome side-effects. Poldine was used for the treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcer under tradename "Nacton".
