Deptropine citrate is a well-known H1-histamine receptor antagonist and muscarinic receptor antagonist. It is prescribed frequently for treatment of asthma, although there has been a sharp decrease in prescriptions since 1994. Deptropine is gradually being replaced by inhaled beta 2 adrenergic agonists and glucocorticosteroids as the preferred clinical prescription. Recently deptropine has garnered interest as a potential treatment for breast cancer. In vitro studies have shown deptropine citrate has inhibitory effects on cell viability and mammosphere formation in Breast Cancer Stem Cells (BCSCs). However, it does not seem to inhibit the self-renewal capacity of the breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 when it is enriched with Cancer Stem Cells.

Fasoracetam is a cognition enhancer that interacts with GABA(B) receptors, stimulates neuronal ACh receptors and modulates mGlu receptors. The drug is being tested in phase III/II of clinical trials for the treatment of Attention Deficit Disorder With Hyperactivity in people with genetic disorders impacting mGlu receptors and never been approved by FDA. Fasoracetam is also being marketed in the form of capsules for research purposes aimed at investigation of cognition and memory disorders.

Carpronium chloride is a hair growth reagent with a vasodilatory action. In vivo studies indicated that carpronium chloride achieved dilatation of vascular smooth muscle in the microcirculation of rats. FUROZIN SOLUTION 5% (active ingredient Carpronium chloride) has local vasodilating effect and hair growth stimulatory effect to improve alopecia and vitiligo. It is usually used for the prevention of hair loss, for hair growth stimulation, and in the treatment of seborrhea sicca and vitiligo vulgaris.

Acotiamide (Acofide(®)), an oral first-in-class prokinetic drug, is under global development by Zeria Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd and Astellas Pharma Inc. for the treatment of patients with functional dyspepsia. The drug modulates upper gastrointestinal motility to alleviate abdominal symptoms resulting from hypomotility and delayed gastric emptying. It exerts its activity in the stomach via muscarinic receptor inhibition, resulting in enhanced acetylcholine release and inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity. Acofide® is launched in Japan for treating functional dyspepsia.
Pimethixene is an antihistamine exerting sedative and antitussive properties. Pimethixene displayed high affinity to serotonin 5-HT2A and 2B, histamine H1 and muscarinic acetylcholine M2 receptors. Oral pimethixene used to calm dry cough and irritation coughs in children.

NS-3 (montirelin, CG 3703) is an analog of thyrotrophin releasing hormone (TRH). More potent and longer acting than TRH, CG-3703 produced beneficial effects in animal models of concussion-induced unconsciousness, cerebral ischemia, memory disruption, spontaneous convulsions in rats, narcolepsy, and spinal trauma. Given its efficacy in these models, the potential indications were broadened to include seizures, nerve trauma, cognitive dysfunction, and sleep apnea.
Tiemonium (often used in a form of iodide or methylsulphate salt) is a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist, which is available in Asia (mainly Bangladesh) for the alleviation of muscle spasms of the intestine, biliary system, uterus and urinary bladder in gastrointestinal, biliary, urinary and gynecological diseases.

Conditions:

Pempidine is a nicotinic antagonist most commonly used as an experimental tool. It has been used as a ganglionic blocker in the treatment of hypertension but has largely been supplanted for that purpose by more specific drugs. In preclinical models Pempidine blocks the effects of intravenous nicotine and of peripheral vagal stimulation on the blood pressure; it also causes dilatation of the pupil after removal of the sympathetic innervation. On the guinea-pig ileum, the predominant effect of the compound is to inhibit nicotine contractions. Pempidineis well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract as judged by (a) the low ratio (6.9) of oral to intravenous toxicities, (b) the rapid development of mydriasis in mice after oral administration of small doses, and (c) the rapid onset of hypotension when the compound is injected directly into the duodenum of anaesthetized cats. Other actions include neuromuscular paralysis of curare-like type when large doses of the compound are injected intravenously and central effects such as tremors which occur with near toxic doses. In cats with a low blood pressure, large intravenous doses have a slight pressor action.

Conditions:

Alcuronium (diallylnortoxiferine) is a semi-synthetic substance prepared from C-toxiferine I a bis-quaternary alkaloid obtained from Strychnos toxifera. Alcuronium is a neuromuscular blocking (NMB) agent, alternatively referred to as a skeletal muscle relaxant. Alcuronium is used for endotracheal intubation and to produce muscle relaxation in general anesthesia during surgical procedures. The pharmacological action of alcuronium is readily reversed by neostigmine, and it produced little histamine release. The major disadvantage of alcuronium is that it elicits a vagolytic effect produced by a selective atropine-like blockade of cardiac muscarinic receptors.
