Ergonovine (also known as ergometrine) is the active water soluble component of ergot of rye. Ergonovine is being used as a maleate salt to prevent or treate postpartum haemorrhage and postabortion haemorrhage. Ergonovine stimulates alpha-adrenergic and serotonin receptors, thus activating contractions of uterine and vascular smooth muscle. Ergonovine may have depressant effect on CNS system as it binds to dopamine receptors.

PECAZINE is a phenothiazine derivative that was used as an antipsychotic. It is also an allosteric inhibitor of MALT1 paracaspase activity.
Triflupromazine is antipsychotic and an antiemetic drug (sold under the brand names VESPRIN) which used to management of psychoses. However, this drug was discontinued. Triflupromazine binds to the dopamine D1 and dopamine D2 receptors and inhibits their activity. Moreover, binds the muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (M1 and M2).

Conditions:

Phenmetrazine is an anti-obesity drug, which was discovered by Boehringer-Ingelheim in 1952 and approved by FDA under the name Preludin. Later on the drug was withdrawn from the market due to the reported cases of abuse. According to some studies, misuse of phenmetrazine turned many young addicts to crime. It is suggested that the drug exerts its effect by inhibiting the monoamine transport.
Promazine (Sparine) is a phenothiazine neuroleptic used for short-term management of moderate to severe psychomotor agitation and treatment of agitation and restlessness in the elderly. Promazine is an antagonist at types 1, 2, and 4 dopamine receptors, 5-HT receptor types 2A and 2C, muscarinic receptors 1 through 5, alpha(1)-receptors, and histamine H1-receptors. Promazine's antipsychotic effect is due to antagonism at dopamine and serotonin type 2 receptors, with greater activity at serotonin 5-HT2 receptors than at dopamine type-2 receptors. This may explain the lack of extrapyramidal effects. Promazine does not appear to block dopamine within the tuberoinfundibular tract, explaining the lower incidence of hyperprolactinemia than with typical antipsychotic agents or risperidone. Antagonism at muscarinic receptors, H1-receptors, and alpha(1)-receptors also occurs with promazine. Promazine is not approved for human use in the United States. It is available in the US for veterinary use under the names Promazine and Tranquazine.
Zoxazolamine is a centrally acting muscle relaxant. It decreased striatal dopamine metabolism without affecting striatal dopamine concentrations. More specifically, Zoxazolamine was shown to decrease striatal dopamine turnover without directly affecting dopamine synthesis, catabolism, reuptake, or release. It is the IK(Ca) channel opener. It was approved for the relief of muscle spasm in conditions such as musculoskeletal disorders and neurological diseases. Later, it was submitted for the drug's use as a uricosuric agent to treat gout. It was withdrawn from the market due to hepatotoxicity.

Dihydroergocristine is an ergot alkaloid that has an partial agonist activity on dopaminergic and alpha-adrenergic receptors and antagonist activity on serotonin receptors. The drug was approved by FDA in combination with other alkaloids (dihydroergocornine, dihydro-alpha-ergocryptine and dihydro-beta-ergocryptine mesylate salts) under the name Hydergine for the treatment of dimentia and cerebrovascular insufficiency.

Dihydroergocornine is an ergot alkaloid, one of the three components of ergoloid (trade name Hydergine). Dihydroergocornine (as the component of Ergoloid mesylates) has been used to treat dementia and age-related cognitive impairment (such as in Alzheimer disease), as well as to aid in recovery after stroke. There is no specific evidence which clearly establishes the mechanism by which Hydergine® (ergoloid mesylates) preparations produce mental effects, nor is there conclusive evidence that the drug particularly affects cerebral arteriosclerosis or cerebrovascular insufficiency. Hydergine may stimulates dopaminergic and serotonergic receptors and blocks alpha-adrenoreceptors.
