Terguride (INN), also known as trans-dihydrolisuride, is a serotonin receptor antagonist and dopamine receptor agonist of the ergoline family. Terguride is approved for and used in the treatment of hyperprolactinemia. Terguride is an oral, potent antagonist of 5-HT2B and 5-HT2A (serotonin) receptors. Serotonin stimulates the proliferation of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells and induces fibrosis in the wall of pulmonary arteries. Together, this causes vascular remodeling and narrowing of the pulmonary arteries. These changes result in increased vascular resistance and PAH. Due to the potential anti-proliferative and anti-fibrotic activity of terguride, this potential medicine could offer the hope of achieving reversal of pulmonary artery vascular remodeling and attenuation of disease progression. In May 2008, terguride was granted orphan drug status for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension. In May 2010 Pfizer purchased worldwide rights for the drug.

Conditions:

Spiramycins are macrolides produced by cultures of Streptomyces ambofaciens from the soil of northern France. The mixture of spiramycins have been successfully separated into three different components termed as Spiramycin I, II and III, which differ structurally in the acylation moieties on the C3 of the lactone. The SP I component contains a hydroxyl group at C3. The drug is effective against gram-positive aerobic pathogens, N. gonorrhoeae, and staphylococci. It is used to treat infections caused by bacteria and Toxoplasma gondii.
Sodium antimonylgluconate (triostam) is a trivalent antimony compound. It was used for the treatment of schistosomiasis. Usually given intravenously.

Tobicillin (TBPC) is an ester derivative of penicillin G. It is a beta-Lactam antibiotic, peptidoglycan biosynthesis inhibitor. TBPC was shown to be the effective antibiotic for the treatment of enterococcicosis in yellowtail.
Flomoxef is a cephamycin antibiotic with a difluoromethylthio-acetamido group at the 7-beta position of the cephem nucleus, commonly used for postoperative prophylaxis. Flomoxef has activity against epidermides, streptococci, propionibacteria, and both methicillin-resistant and -susceptible Staphylococcus aureus. Flomoxef exhibits a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against G(+), G(-) and even anaerobes such as Staphylococcus sp., Escherichia coli, and Bacteroides sp., and it can be used singly to treat infection caused by aerobes and anaerobes (Mixed infection) effectively. Flomoxef belongs to the cephamycin, so it is very stable against β-lactamase as well as Extended Spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL), a novel resistance induced by Enterobacteriaceae. There is no Oxyimino group in the structure of Flomoxef, so it won’t derive ESBL and it is also effective for the treatment to ESBL infection. No disulfiram-like reaction and less incidence of vitamin K deficiency than that of Latamoxef. Marketed in Japan as FLUMARIN.

Aspoxicillin is an injectable, amino acid-type penicillin highly active against Gram-positive ad Gram-negative bacteria, including the beta-lactamase producing Bacillus fragilis. It is reportedly effective in the treatment of peritonitis, pneumonia and bronchitis. Adverse reactions are: rash, urticaria, skin itching, vomiting, abdominal pain.
Sulbenicillin (INN) is a penicillin antibiotic, product name: KEDACILLIN (SODIUM SULBENICILLIN) is effective against gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and anaerobic Bacteroides, and is also effective against gram-positive bacteria sensitive to Penicillin – G. It’s excreted into the urine and bile in high concentration. Therefore, urinary levels, well above those required to eradicate urinary pathogens, are achieved. It is indicated to treat urinary tract infections: pyelonephritis, pyelitis, pyonephrosis, cystitis and urethritis. Bile-duct infections: cholecystitis and cholangitis. Respiratory tract infections: acute and chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasis, bronchopneumonia, pneumonia and pulmonary suppuration. Obstetrics and Gynecology: intrauterine infection, adnexitis, intrapelvic infection and Bartholinitis. Superfacial suppurative diseases: folliculitis, furuncle, carbuncle, abscess, panaris, phlegmon, tonsilitis, peritonsilitis, peritonsillar abscess, erysipelas, ophthalmia, blepharitis, corneal ulcer, dacryocystitis, stye, post-operative wound infection and traumatic and burn infections. Peritonitis. Septicemia and sub-acute bacterial endocarditis. Sulbenicillin caused elongation of the bacterial cells. At the early stage of elongation, no demonstrable changes of ultrastructure of the cell wall were observed. At the late stage, lysis of the peptidoglycan layer occurred and spheroplast was formed. However, most of the outer membrane of the cell wall remained intact. Sulbenicillin acts upon the peptidoglycan layer, but not on the outer membrane.
Cefsulodin is a third-generation of cephalosporin antibiotic with a narrow spectrum of activity. It has a specific activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Cefsulodin’s targets are bacterial penicillin binding proteins. Drug is indicated for the treatment of infections of lower respiratory tract, skin and skin structures, urinary tract, bone and joint; treatment of gynecological infections; treatment of intra-abdominal infections; treatment of septicemia and CNS infections including meningitis caused by susceptible strains of specific microorganisms. Cefsulodin appears to be well tolerated and relatively free of any significant toxicity except for nausea and vomiting.

Tropisetron (Tropisetron-AFT) is a potent and selective serotonin 3 (5-hydroxytryptamine3; 5-HT3) receptor antagonist with antiemetic properties, probably mediated via antagonism of receptors both at peripheral sites and in the central nervous system. Surgery and treatment with certain substances, including some chemotherapeutic agents, may trigger the release of serotonin from enterochromaffin-like cells in the visceral mucosa and initiate the emesis reflex and its accompanying feeling of nausea. Tropisetron (Tropisetron-AFT) selectively blocks the excitation of the presynaptic 5-HT3 receptors of the peripheral neurons in this reflex, and may exert additional direct actions within the CNS on 5-HT3 receptors mediating the actions of vagal input to the area postrema.

Pittsburgh compound B (PiB) is a radioactive analog of thioflavin T, which can be used in positron emission tomography scans to image beta-amyloid plaques in the brains of patients with Alzheimer’s disease. 11C-PIB specifically binds to Aβ40 and Aβ42 fibrils and insoluble plaques containing the aforementioned Aß peptides with no detectable binding to soluble Aβ forms or neurofibrillary tangles under PET study conditions. Furthermore, this radiotracer does not bind to neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) in the neuronal regions of the brain during postmortem autopsies. A typical injected dose ranges from 250-450 MBq and the imaging time normally varies between 40 and 90 minutes. The quantification of 11C-PIB has demonstrated to elicit a profound difference in neuronal cortical binding between individuals recognized with Alzheimer's disease and age-matched cognitively normal controls.
