Metofenazate is a calmodulin inhibitor and was studied as an antipsychotic drug.

Pipradimadol is a 4.4-disubstituted piperidine derivative which demonstrates, in animal experiments, effects typical for certain antidepressant and antiserotonin drugs. Pipradimadol is the central serotonin antagonist. Pipradimadol exhibits antinociceptive properties also. Behavioral tests reflect overall sedation after pipradimadol, decreased rectal temperature and locomotor activity; cataleptic effects of tetrabenazine are antagonized and noradrenaline as well as dopamine reuptake in vitro are slightly inhibited. Homovanillic acid, a metabolite of dopamine is strongly increased after pipradimadol in rat striatum. Pipradimadol was used as analgesic agent.

Dazopride is an antagonist of the 5-HT3 receptor and agonist of the 5-HT4 receptor, structurally related to metoclopramide. Dazopride was developed by A. H. Robins Company as an antiemetic and gastroprokinetic drug. Dazoptide demonstrated an antiemetic effect in the clinic after i.v. infusion to patients, receiving anticancer therapy.

FLUALAMIDE is an antiemetic agent.

Icospiramide was developed as an antiemetic agent that has never been marketed.

Furomazine, a sedative agent, was studied as a neuroleptic. However, information about the current use of this compound is not available.

Oxyridazine was developed as a neuroleptic agent. However, information about the further development of this drug is not available.

Dolasetron is an antinauseant and antiemetic agent, which is approved as a mesylate salt under the brand name anzement for the prevention of nausea and vomiting associated with moderately emetogenic cancer chemotherapy, including initial and repeat courses; and for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Dolasetron is a highly specific and selective serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. The serotonin 5-HT3 receptors are located on the nerve terminals of the vagus in the periphery and centrally in the chemoreceptor trigger zone of the area postrema. It is thought that chemotherapeutic agents produce nausea and vomiting by releasing serotonin from the enterochromaffin cells of the small intestine, and that the released serotonin then activates 5-HT3 receptors located on vagal efferents to initiate the vomiting reflex. This drug is not shown to have activity at other known serotonin receptors, and has low affinity for dopamine receptors. Dolasetron mesilate is rapidly reduced by carbonyl reductase to form its major pharmacologically active metabolite reduced dolasetron. In addition dolasetron was in the phase III clinical trials for the investigation, that intravenous using of dolasetron mesilate reduces pain intensity in patients with fibromyalgia.

Nabilone is a synthetic cannabinoid approved under the brand name cesamet for treatment of severe nausea and vomiting associated with cancer chemotherapy. Nabilone is an orally active which, like other cannabinoids, has complex effects on the central nervous system (CNS). It has been suggested that the antiemetic effect of nabilone is caused by interaction with the cannabinoid receptor system, i.e. the CB (1) receptor, which has been discovered in neural tissues.

Benzquinamide also known as BZQ; Emete-con, Emetico, is an antiemetic drug, which was discontinued. That drug was used to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting associated with anesthesia and surgery, administered intramuscularly or intravenously. The mechanism of action is not known, but was made predictions which shown, that in spite of benzquinamide did bind to the α2A, α2B, and α2C adrenergic receptors (α2-AR). It was known, that this activity may partially explain the anxiolytic activity effect of the drug. But the dopamine D2 receptor, which by ligand-set similarity resembles α2-AR is an accepted target for emesis. Then benzquinamide was tested towards to the D2, D3, and D4 receptors. Notwithstanding the fact that the α2-AR values are lower than the D2 values, it was predicted, that D2 activity may be the most relevant for emesis.
