Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine which is used in the combination with naproxen sodium for the relief of occasional sleeplessness when associated with minor aches and pains. Diphenhydramine has a role nighttime sleep-aid and naproxen sodium is a pain reliever. In addition, diphenhydramine used in relieving symptoms in patients with moderate-to-severe seasonal allergic rhinitis. Diphenhydramine acts as an antagonist of histamine H1 receptor. Besides, was shown potential to repurpose diphenhydramine as an anti-melanoma therapeutic agent, it induces melanoma cell apoptosis by suppressing STAT3/MCL-1 survival signaling pathway.

ISPRONICLINE is a partial agonist at the a4b2 subtype of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) without interaction with other nAChRs or other receptor systems. It has antidepressant, nootropic, and neuroprotective effects. It progressed to phase II clinical trials for the treatment of dementia and Alzheimer's disease but is no longer under development.

Anisodamine is a naturally occurring atropine derivative that has been isolated, synthesized and characterized by scientists in the People's Republic of China. Anisodamine is a non-specific cholinergic antagonist. Anisodamine has been shown to interact with and disrupt liposome structure which may reflect its effects on cellular membranes. Experimental evidence implicates anisodamine as an anti-oxidant that may protect against free radical-induced cellular damage. Its cardiovascular properties include depression of cardiac conduction and the ability to protect against arrhythmia induced by various agents. Anisodamine is a relatively weak alpha(1) adrenergic antagonist which may explain its vasodilating activity. Its anti-thrombotic activity may be a result of inhibition of thromboxane synthesis. Numerous therapeutic uses of anisodamine have been proposed including treatment of septic shock, various circulatory disorders, organophosphorus (OP) poisoning, migraine, gastric ulcers, gastrointestinal colic, acute glomerular nephritis, eclampsia, respiratory diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, obstructive jaundice, opiate addiction, snake bite and radiation damage protection. The primary therapeutic use of anisodamine has been for the treatment of septic shock. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain its beneficial effect though most mechanisms are based upon the assumption that anisodamine ultimately acts by an improvement of blood flow in the microcirculation. Preliminary studies suggest another important therapeutic use of anisodamine is for the treatment of OP poisoning. Anisodamine has been employed therapeutically since 1965 in the People’s Republic of China primarily to improve blood flow in circulatory disorders such as septic shock, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and as an antidote to organophosphate poisoning.

Otenzepad is the first competitive muscarinic M2 antagonist that is cardioselective and had been in phase III clinical trials for the treatment of arrhythmias and bradycardia. Otenzepad was originally developed by Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma KG (Boehringer Ingelheim) in Germany. The parent company is developing oral and IV formulations of the drug for use in symptomatic bradycardia, sinus bradycardia, sick sinus syndrome and symptomatic arrhythmias after intoxication. However, all these research has been discontinued. Otenzepad binds to muscarinic cholinergic receptors in a simple competitive manner. Its affinity for cardiac (M2) muscarinic receptors is about 7 times greater than for ganglionic (M1) receptors and about 36 times greater than for glandular (M3) receptors. The (+)-enantiomer of otenzepad is about 8 times more potent at M2-receptors than the (−)-enantiomer. In a double-blind study, 48 healthy male volunteers were randomised to single oral doses of placebo or otenzepad (120, 240 or 480mg). Heart-rate (HR) was significantly increased by the 250 and 480mg doses (by 15 and 21 beats/minute, respectively). The 480mg dose also increased Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) significantly compared with placebo. The oral pharmacokinetics of otenzepad were investigated in a double-blind study in which 48 healthy male volunteers were randomised to single oral doses of placebo or otenzepad (120, 240 or 480mg). Otenzepad bioavailability was 45%, mean residence time (MRT) was 12.5 hours and tmax occurred 2.5 hours postdose.

Telenzepine is a selective muscarinic M1 receptor antagonist that was studied for selective inhibition of gastric acid secretion. Telenzepine was used in clinical trials in patients with acute duodenal ulcer, where was found that once daily administration of 3 mg in the evening must be regarded as the optimal dosage regimen of telenzepine. However, the preregistration for peptic ulcer in Germany was discontinued. In addition, the drug was studied in patients with nocturnal asthma. It was shown that telenzepine via the oral route at a dose of up to 5 mg was not effective in preventing nocturnal asthma.

Stilonium Iodide (also known as MG 624) is a trimethylethanaminium derivative with ganglionic-blocking action. Stilonium Iodide acts as α7-nicotinic receptor antagonist and Stilonium Iodide inhibits transmission between preganglionic and postganglionic neurons in the Autonomic Nervous System. Stilonium Iodide inhibits nicotine-induced proliferation and angiogenesis in human microvascular endothelial cells of the lung. Stilonium Iodide displayed anti-angiogenic activity in Matrigel, rat aortic ring and rat retinal explant assays. Furthermore, MG624 suppressed angiogenesis of NCI-H69 human SCLC tumors in vivo in both the chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) and nude mice model.
