Label Id Description
4-[(Isopropylamino)Methyl]Phenylalanine DB04292
Maleic Acid DB04299
Methacholine DB06709 [Methacholine acts as a non-selective muscarinic receptor agonist to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system. It is most commonly used for diagnosing bronchial hyperreactivity, using the bronchial challenge test. Through this test, the drug causes bronchoconstriction and people with pre-existing airway hyperreactivity, such as asthmatics, will react to lower doses of drug.]
Lumefantrine DB06708 [Lumefantrine is an antimalarial agent used to treat acute uncomplicated malaria. It is administered in combination with artemether for improved efficacy. This combination therapy exerts its effects against the erythrocytic stages of <i>Plasmodium spp.</i> and may be used to treat infections caused by <i>P. falciparum</i> and unidentified <i>Plasmodium</i> species, including infections acquired in chloroquine-resistant areas.]
Levonordefrin DB06707 [Levonordefrin acts as a topical nasal decongestant and vasoconstrictor, most often used in dentistry.]
Isometheptene DB06706 [Isometheptene is a sympathomimetic drug which causes vasoconstriction. It is used for treating migraines and tension headaches.]
Gadofosveset trisodium DB06705 [Gadofosveset trisodium is an intravenous contrast agent used with magnetic resonance angiography(MRA), which is a non-invasive way of imaging blood vessels. The agent allows for the vascular system to be imaged more clearly by the MRA. In this way, gadofosveset trisodium is used to help diagnose certain disorders of the heart and blood vessels.]
Iobenguane DB06704 [Synthetic guanethidine derivative that locates phaeochromocytomas and neuroblastomas. The radioisotope used can either be iodine-123 for imaging or iodine-131 for destruction of tissues that metabolize noradrenaline. Iodine 123 is a cyclotron-produced radionuclide that decays to Te 123 by electron capture. Images are produced by a I123 MIBG scintigraphy. FDA approved on September 19, 2008.]
Gadobutrol DB06703 [Intravenous gadobutrol is a second-generation extracellular non-ionic macrocyclic GBCA (gadolinium-based contrast agent) used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in adults and children older than 2 years of age. It may help visualize and detect vascular abnormalities in the blood brain barrier (BBB) and central nervous system (CNS). In patients with impaired renal function, gadolinium based contrast agents increase the risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF). A physician should be contacted if symptoms of NSF are encountered, such as dark or red patches on the skin; stiffness in joints; trouble moving, bending or straightening arms, hands, legs or feet; burning, itching, swelling, scaling, hardening and tightening of skin; pain in hip bones or ribs; or muscle weakness. Common adverse reactions that may be experienced include headache, nausea, feeling hot, abnormal taste, and warmth, burning or pain local to the injection site. General precautions should be taken in patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or who have a history of allergic reaction to contrast media, bronchial asthma or an allergic respiratory disorder.]
Fesoterodine DB06702 [Fesoterodine is an antimuscarinic prodrug for the treatment of overactive bladder syndrome.]
Dexmethylphenidate DB06701 [Dexmethylphenidate is the dextrorotary form of methylphenidate introduced in 2002[A177181]. It is a norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor (NDRI) and thus a psychostimulant[A177193]. It is used for treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)[Label,A177181]. The d-isomer is thought to have greater effect with fewer side effects than the l-isomer or the racemic mixture[A177181].]
Desvenlafaxine DB06700 [Desvenlafaxine (O-desmethylvenlafaxine) the major active metabolite of venlafaxine, is an antidepressant from the serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) class[Label]. Desvenlafaxine may be used to treat major depressive disorder[Label]. It is formulated as an extended release tablet[Label]. Desvenlafaxine was approved by the FDA in 2008[L6016].]
NCX 701 DB05409 [Nitroparacetamol (NCX-701) is a newly synthesized nitric oxide-releasing derivative of paracetamol.]
Emricasan DB05408 [Emricasan is the first caspase inhibitor tested in human which has received orphan drug status by FDA. It is developed by Pfizer and made in such a way that it protects liver cells from excessive apoptosis.]
Seratrodast DB06739 [Seratrodast (INN) is a thromboxane receptor antagonist used primarily in the treatment of asthma.]
TBC-3711 DB05407 [TBC3711 is a next-generation endothelin antagonist that is being studied through oral and intravenous formulations by Encysive Pharmaceuticals.]
Ketobemidone DB06738 [Ketobemidone is a powerful opioid analgesic. It also has some NMDA-antagonist properties. This makes it useful for some types of pain that don't respond well to other opioids. The most commonly cited equalisation ratio for analgesic doses is 25 mg of ketobemidone hydrobromide to 60 mg of morphine hydrochloride or sulfate and circa 8 mg of ketobemidone by injection.]
GTI-2501 DB05406 [GTI-2501 is a novel antisense drug which has shown a favorable safety profile in preclinical studies, and in a phase I clinical trial. The drug is in a phase II clinical trial in combination with docetaxel for the treatment of hormone refractory prostate cancer. Initial testing has demonstrated strong antitumor activity in preclinical studies in prostate cancer and a variety of other tumor types.]
Zaltoprofen DB06737 [A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug approved for use in Japan in 1993.]
XTL-001 DB05405 [XTL001 is an investigational monoclonal antibody (MAb) product developed by XTL Biopharmaceuticals to evaluate the safety profile and antiviral activity of the compound in patients chronically infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV).]
