Dextrorphan is an active metabolite of dextromethorphan, is an antitussive agent, which was found in cough medicines. Dextrorphan is a noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist, sigma 1 receptor agonist, so as is an agonist of mu and kappa opioid receptors. In addition was found, that dextrorphan possessed anticonvulsive and neuroprotective effects.

Fluridone, an herbicide that used for controlling invasive aquatic plants such as hydrilla in surface water bodies. It inhibits carotenoid synthesis in targeted plant species, preventing photosynthesis and ultimately causing mortality. This compound contains a 4(1H)-pyridone and a trifluoromethyl-benzene moiety, which are also present in molecules with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Experiments on rodents have confirmed that fluridone could represent a new prototype of an anti-inflammatory drug.

Ticabesone is a thioetianic acid derivative patented by Syntex, Inc. as anti-inflammatory agent. The topical antiinflammatory activity of Ticabesone was assessed in humans by vasoconstriction assay.

Isoxaflutole is a selective herbicide approved for control of certain broadleaf and grass weeds in field corn and soybean. Isoxaflutole is the first member of a new structural class of herbicides called the isoxazoles. Isoxaflutole works by preventing the biosynthesis of carotenoid pigmentsin both broadleaf and grass weeds. Without carotenoid pigments, chlorophyll pigments are damaged by the sun, and the plant eventually dies. Isoxaflutole is effective against weeds resistant to other herbicide classes such as glyphosate and atrazine. Isoxaflutole was registered conditionally from 1998 to 2004 for weed control in field corn. Isoxaflutole exhibited low acute toxicity via oral, dermal, and inhalation routes of exposure and it is not a dermal sensitizer. In long-term studies via the oral route, isoxaflutole caused ocular toxicity in rats, hepatotoxicity (including liver tumor formation) and thyroid tumors in rats and mice, and hematotoxicity (toxicity to blood) in dogs and mice at high doses. The liver and ocular toxicities observed in rats were consistent with the mode of action of isoxaflutole in mammals (i.e., inhibition of the hepatic enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD)) that leads to a buildup of tyrosine in the blood and the eye.

1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid (ACPC) is a non-proteinogenic alpha-amino acid consisting of cyclopropane having amino and carboxy substituents both at the 1-position. It has a role as a plant metabolite and a member of ethylene releasers. ACPC is produced endogenously in the tomato and other higher plants as a product of the action of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase in the biosynthesis of ethylene. It is a monocarboxylic acid and a non-proteinogenic alpha-amino acid. It derives from a cyclopropanecarboxylic acid. ACPC is a partial agonist at the strychnine-insensitive glycine recognition site on the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex in the mammalian central nervous system with preclinical activity in animal models of neuroprotection and psychiatric illnesses. Half-maximal activation by ACPC as a glycine-site agonist was 0.7 to 0.9 microM. Half-maximal inhibition by ACPC was dependent on NMDA concentration. Peak responses to a >100 microM ACPC pulse in the presence of 1 microM glutamate were similar to those of glycine but decayed to a steady-state amplitude below that of glycine. The removal of ACPC initially caused an increase in inward current followed by a subsequent decrease to baseline levels. This suggests that relief of low-affinity antagonism occurs before high-affinity agonist dissociation. ACPC is shown to block convulsions and death produced by NMDA exposure, significantly reducing seizure induction and cell death of NMDA-treated hippocampal neurons.

Ticabesone Propionate is Ticabesone ester patented by Syntex, Inc. as an anti-inflammatory agent. Ticabesone Propionate shows potent antiinflammatory activity silver nitrate-induced inflammation in the rat cornea.

Bifenthrin is a pyrethroid insecticide used in urban and agricultural applications. Bifenthrin is a broad-spectrum insecticide that modifies voltage-gated ion channels disrupting the normal function of nerve cells. In May 2010 EU Commission withdrawn plant protection products containing bifenthrin.

Cizolirtine is a potent analgesic in mice and rats, with an efficacy superior to that of aspirin and other nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs. Recent studies have shown that the analgesic effect of cizolirtine could be related, at least partially, to an inhibition of spinal substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide release. Cizolirtine has been in clinical trials for the treatment of pain and overactive bladder. Reported adverse events are: dry mouth, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision.
