There is one exact (name or code) match for carbenicillin indanyl

 
Geocillin, a trade name is the sodium salt of the indanyl ester of carbenicillin disodium, which used to treat acute and chronic infections of the upper and lower urinary tract and in asymptomatic bacteriuria due to susceptible strains of bacteria. In addition, Geocillin was also indicated in the treatment of prostatitis due to susceptible strains of the following organisms: Escherichia coli; Enterococcus (S. faecalis); Proteus mirabilis; Enterobacter sp. Free carbenicillin is the predominant pharmacologically active fraction of Geocillin. After absorption, Geocillin is rapidly converted to carbenicillin by hydrolysis of the ester linkage. Carbenicillin exerts its antibacterial activity by interference with final cell wall synthesis of susceptible bacteria. Penicillins acylate the penicillin-sensitive transpeptidase C-terminal domain by opening the lactam ring. This inactivation of the enzyme prevents the formation of a cross-link of two linear peptidoglycan strands, inhibiting the third and last stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis. In 2008 Pfizer has decided to discontinue the manufacturing of Geocillin (carbenicillin indanyl sodium)

Nafcillin is a beta-lactam antibiotic of penicillin class. As a beta-lactamase-resistant penicillin, it is used to treat infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, in particular, species of staphylococci that are resistant to other penicillins.
Oxacillin is a penicillin beta-lactam antibiotic used in the treatment of bacterial infections caused by susceptible, usually gram-positive, organisms. The name "penicillin" can either refer to several variants of penicillin available, or to the group of antibiotics derived from the penicillins. Oxacillin has in vitro activity against gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. The bactericidal activity of Oxacillin results from the inhibition of cell wall synthesis and is mediated through Oxacillin binding to penicillin binding proteins (PBPs). Oxacillin is stable against hydrolysis by a variety of beta-lactamases, including penicillinases, and cephalosporinases and extended spectrum beta-lactamases. By binding to specific penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located inside the bacterial cell wall, Oxacillin inhibits the third and last stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis. Cell lysis is then mediated by bacterial cell wall autolytic enzymes such as autolysins; it is possible that Oxacillin interferes with an autolysin inhibitor. Oxacillin is used in the treatment of resistant staphylococci infections. Oxacillin sodium was marketed under the trade name Bactocill.
Penicillin V is a penicillin beta-lactam antibiotic used in the treatment of bacterial infections caused by susceptible, usually gram-positive, organisms. The name "penicillin" can either refer to several variants of penicillin available, or to the group of antibiotics derived from the penicillins. Penicillin V has in vitro activity against gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. The bactericidal activity of Penicillin V results from the inhibition of cell wall synthesis and is mediated through Penicillin V binding to penicillin binding proteins (PBPs). Penicillin V is stable against hydrolysis by a variety of beta-lactamases, including penicillinases, and cephalosporinases and extended spectrum beta-lactamases.

Cell lysis is then mediated by bacterial cell wall autolytic enzymes such as autolysins; it is possible that Penicillin V interferes with an autolysin inhibitor. Used for the treatment of mild to moderately severe infections (e.g. dental infection, infections in the heart, middle ear infections, rheumatic fever, scarlet fever, skin infections, upper and lower respiratory tract infections) due to microorganisms.

Tefludazine (Lu 18-012) is a mixed D2 and 5-HT2 receptor antagonist that was developed as a potential antipsychotic compound. It was shown that tefludazine induced a dose-dependent decrease in both nigra pars compacta (SNC) and ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine (DA) activity. The development of the drug was discontinued in Phase I due to toxicological findings in dogs.

Niravoline [RU 49679, RU 51599, niravolin], a novel aqueous diuretic with κ-opioid agonistic action. The drug was originally being developed by Hoechst Marion Roussel. Niravoline is a selective agonist of kappa-opioid receptors having potent aquaretic activity. Niravoline was studied with respect to the treatment of brain oedema, heart failure and liver cirrhosis. Niravoline, administered at moderate doses, safely induced a powerful aquaretic effect in patients with cirrhosis and ascites. Moderate doses of niravoline appeared to be a promising pharmacological tool in the treatment of water retention in patients with cirrhosis. The development of niravoline as an aquaretic for the treatment of cirrhosis with ascites and other hyponatraemic disorders has also been halted.

Indacrinone is an orally active, indanone-based loop diuretic patented by American pharmaceutical company Merck and Co as mixture of two enantiomers. In healthy volunteers, the racernic mixture of indacrinone exhibited greater natriuretic potency than furosemide, with a slower onset and longer duration of action. Furthermore, single doses of indacrinone decreased serum uric acid concentrations and increased uric acid clearance, while similar doses of furosemide generally had the opposite effects. Differences in the pharmacologic effects of the resolved enantiomers of indacrinone were initially studied in animals and confirmed in a series of studies we conducted in healthy human volunteer. The S( + ) form is a potent uricosuric agent that produces mild natriuresis only at higher doses, while the R( - ) form is a potent loop diuretic with only transient uricosuric effects. The (-) enantiomer and its active metabolite appear to be primarily responsible for the natriuretic effects of the racemic mixture; the ( + ) enantiomer is 20-40 times less potent a natriuretic agent.
