Efaproxiral is a synthetic, small molecule, radiation-sensitising agent being developed by Allos Therapeutics primarily for the treatment of cancer. It works by binding and allosterically stabilising deoxyhaemoglobin in hypoxic regions of tumour tissue. This increases oxygen uptake of the tumour tissue and restores its sensitivity to radiation therapy, making therapy potentially more successful. But no benefit was seen for efaproxiral in phase III clinical trials. The only serious adverse effect detected was hypoxaemia. Efaproxiral is explicitly excluded from the 2012 World Anti-Doping Agency list of Prohibited Substances and is explicitly included in the Prohibited Methods section M1 as a forbidden procedure to alter the oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curve in order to allosterically modify haemoglobin.

Potassium Trihydrogen Dioxalate is a Potassium salt used in photography, marble grinding, and in metal polishing. Potassium Trihydrogen Dioxalate is strongly irritating to eyes, mucous and gastrointestinal tract. Potassium Trihydrogen Dioxalate may cause cardiac failure and death after oral administration

Dihexyverine (Metaspas, Spasmodex) is an anticholinergic and direct smooth muscle relaxant (spasmolytic). Dihexyverine is sold in France under the brand name Spasmodex. It is indicated for the treatment of the gastrointestinal tract disorders. Dihexyverine is a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist.

Diisopromine, a spasmolytic and a choleretic, in combination with sorbitol was marketed under the brand name Agofell. Agofell is prescribed for the biliary stasis and biliary insufficiency, hypotonia of the gall bladder, spasm of the biliary duct and of the sphincter of Oddi, cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, post cholecystotomy syndrome.

Dilevalol, the RR-stereoisomer of labetalol, is a non-cardioselective β-adrenoceptor antagonist with substantial partial β2-agonist and negligible α1-blocking activity. Reduction in blood pressure during dilevalol administration is associated with peripheral vasodilatation, and heart rate remains essentially unchanged. Following oral administration, dilevalol is completely absorbed. Once-daily administration is possible, due to a long elimination half-life. In vitro and in vivo animal studies and results obtained in humans reveal that dilevalol is a nonselective blocker of β1- and β2-adrenoceptors, with a similar potency to propranolol, but has negligible antagonistic activity at α1-receptors. Dilevalol, the R,R′ stereoisomer, makes up 25% of racemic labetalol, the drug, approved by FDA for the treatment of hypertension. The relaxing potency of dilevalol was approximately 4.7 times more potent than that of labetalol. Dilevalol markedly reduced the diastolic blood pressure with only a slight increase of heart rate In pithed rats, while isoproterenol and pindolol caused moderate to marked positive chronotropic effects in proportion to their hypotensive effects. These results suggest that dilevalol has more potent ISA than labetalol. In contrast to labetalol, dilevalol possesses little, if any, alpha-adrenergic blocking activity. The compound is 3 to 10 times less potent than labetalol at α1-adrenergic receptors under a variety of experimental conditions. Moreover, it is 300- to 1000-fold less potent at alpha1-adrenergic receptors compared with β1-adrenergic receptors. The pA2 values for dilevalol as an α antagonist range from 5.9 to 6.4. Because maximal plasma concentrations of the drug after administration of a 400-mg dose are approximately 0.5 pmol, it is doubtful that alpha blockade is involved in the antihypertensive response to dilevalol in humans.

CV-205502 (Quinagolide, Norprolac), a small molecule, dopamine 2-receptor agonist was developed by Novartis for the treatment of prolactinoma and hyperprolactinaemia. It is is a long-acting dopamine agonist with potent D2 and weak D1 activity. Quinagolide exists as a racemate and its relevant clinical activity is mediated predominantly by the (-) enantiomer. It is typically present in the hydrochloride salt form and is marketed as oral tablets under the brand name Norprolac contained as a racemate. Quinagolide is currently available in several countries including Canada, but not approved for treatment in the United States. Owing to its dopaminergic action, the drug exerts a strong inhibitory effect on the secretion of the anterior pituitary hormone prolactin, but does not reduce normal levels of other pituitary hormones. Long-term treatment with Norprolac was found to reduce the size or limit the growth of prolactin-secreting pituitary macroadenomas. In some patients the reduction of prolactin secretion may be accompanied by short- lasting, small increases in plasma growth hormone levels, the clinical significance of which is unknown. As a specific inhibitor of prolactin secretion with a prolonged duration of action, Norprolac has been shown to be effective and suitable for once-a- day oral treatment of patients presenting with hyperprolactinaemia and its clinical manifestations such as galactorrhoea, oligomenorrhoea, amenorrhoea, infertility and reduced libido.

Bekanamycin is an aminoglycoside and is a congener of kanamycin. It is given topically as the sulfate for the treatment of eye infections. It is reported to be more toxic than kanamycin A. Antibiotic complex produced by Streptomyces kanamyceticus Okami & Umezawa from Japanese soil. There are no known interactions with other drugs.

Piroheptine is an antagonist of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. The drug was used for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, however, it is no longer marketed.

Benserazide is a peripherally-acting aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) or DOPA decarboxylase inhibitor. Benserazide is only used in conjunction with L-dopa for the treatment of Parkinson's disease under the brand name Madopar in the UK. Madopar HBS (125 mg) is a controlled-release dosage form with 100 mg L-dopa and 25 mg benserazide.

Peplomycin has been developed as novel analog of bleomycin, which has less pulmonary toxicity than bleomycin. Peplomycin has been the subject of extensive studies in Japan and Europe. It is indicated for the treatment of malignant lymphoma, head and neck cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer and skin cancer. General side effects are: digestive symptoms such as stomatitis, anorexia, nausea/vomiting, general malaise, depilation, fever, chills etc.
