Lasalocid is a polyether ionophore with potent antibacterial activity. Lasalocid was developed as an animal health product for treatment of coccidia. Lasalocid is able to form neutral complexes with monovalent and divalent cations and transport the ions through apolar phase (including lipid bilayer membranes). Interestingly, lasalocid can also transport larger organic cations, e.g. protonated dopamine. Lasalocid is used for the prevention of coccidiosis caused by Eimeria tenella, E. necatrix, E. acervulina, E. brunetti, E. mivati, and E. maxima, and for increased rate of weight gain and improved feed efficiency in broiler chickens. Also used for control of coccidiosis caused by Eimeria bovis and E. zuernii in cattle up to 800 lbs. and for prevention of coccidiosis caused by Eimeria ovina, E. crandallis, E. ovinoidalis (E. ninakohlyakimovae), E. parva and E. intricata in sheep maintained in confinement. Lasalocid has being shown to induce cytotoxic apoptosis and cytoprotective autophagy through reactive oxygen species in human prostate cancer PC-3 cells. Lasalocid should be useful in the search for new potential chemotherapeutic agents for understanding the molecular mechanisms of anticancer in prostate cancer cells.

Stearalkonium chloride, a safe surfactant with antimicrobial properties, which is used in cosmetic products at concentrations of ≤0.1 to 5%.

Pimobendan (INN, or pimobendane; tradenames Vetmedin, Acardi, and Heartmedin) is a veterinary medication. Under the trade name Acardi, it is available for human use in Japan. Usually, this medicine is used to treat acute heart failure and chronic heart failure (mild to moderate in severity). By increasing the calcium ion sensitivity to protein regulating myocardial contraction and also by inhibiting phosphodiesterase (PDE-III) activity, this medicine dilates the blood vessels and improves the symptoms of heart failure such as shortness of breath and difficulty in breathing. Pimobendan is metabolized into an active metabolite (desmethylpimobendan) by the liver. The parent compound, pimobendan, is a potent calcium sensitizer while desmethylpimobendan is a more potent phosphodiesterase III inhibitor. Pimobendan is 90–95% bound to plasma proteins in circulation. This may have implications in patients suffering from low blood protein levels (hypoproteinemia/hypoalbuminemia) and in patients that are on concurrent therapies that are also highly protein bound.

Romifidine is an alpha2-adrenergic agonist, which as a sedative and analgesic in horses. The drug was approved by FDA under the name Sedivet. It has no use in humans.

Creatine is an amino acid that occurs in vertebrate tissues and in urine. It is synthesized mainly in the liver from three different amino acids: arginine, glycine, and methionine. In skeletal muscles, which store 95% of it, creatine generally occurs as phosphocreatine. The rest is stored in the brain, heart, and testes. Creatine functions as part of the cell's energy shuttle. It is excreted as creatinine in the urine.

Zinc Pidolate (Zinc PCA) is a topical skin product with purifying, astingent, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic activity. It has long been used as a cosmetic ingredient, because of its astringent and anti-microbial properties. Zinc Pidolate has also being shown to be effective against halitosis. Zinc PCA prevents the UV-induced MMP-1 production in vitro by suppressing the activation of AP-1. Zinc PCA was also able to enhance type I collagen synthesis in NHDFs, by increasing the expression of the mRNA encoding the ascorbic acid transporter SVCT2 in non-UV irradiated NHDFs, which suggests its promising effect against not only photoaged skin but also for the simple atrophic change of intrinsic skin ageing. Zinc PCA is able to suppress sebum secretion by inhibiting 5-α reductase in hyperseborrhea, to suppress body odor by forming zinc salts with short-chain fatty acids, to suppress wrinkles by inhibiting AP-1 to and inhibit bacterial growth including acne related Propionibacterium acnes.

Diisopropylamine (DIPA) is a secondary amine, which is used as a chemical intermediate, and catalyst for the synthesis of pesticides and pharmaceuticals. DIPA is primarily used as a precursor for the herbicides dilate and triallate, as well as certain sulfenamides used in the vulcanization of rubber. It is used for adjusting pH in cosmetic formulations, in colognes, and toilet cleaners. It is associated with tobacco either as a natural component of tobacco, pyrolysis product (in tobacco smoke), or additive for one or more types of tobacco products. When given intravenously to hypertensive patients, DIPA is known as an antihypertensive agent. DIPA exerts its action by lowering arterial blood pressure, reduction of stroke volume and cardiac output. DIPA reduced blood glucose concentrations in fasted mice and in fasted, glucose-loaded, or streptozotocin-diabetic rats. DADA (diisopropylamine dichloroacetate) was identified as an active domain of pangamic acid. DADA is a vasodilator of peripheral and cerebral arterioles. DADA also considered to aid in the detoxification of chemical and metallic metabolites, possibly by the formation of chelate-like compounds whose excretion by the kidneys is facilitated and increased. DADA increases oxygen utilization and cortical glucose uptake.

Pirlimycin is an antibiotic which was approved in the US and Europe for the treatment of subclinical mastitis in lactating dairy cattle associated with common mastitis pathogens, mostly Gram-positive bacterias. The drug exerts its action by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit, therefore hindering the aminoacyl-tRNA binding and inhibiting the peptidyltransferase reaction, which interferes with protein synthesis within the bacteria.
