tramadol
Tramadol, sold under the brand name Tramal among others, is an opioid pain medication and a serotonin–norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) used to treat moderate to severe pain. When taken by mouth in an immediate-release formulation, the onset of pain relief usually begins within an hour. It is also available by injection. It is available in combination with paracetamol (acetaminophen).
methoxetamine
Methoxetamine (MXE) is a dissociative hallucinogen that has been sold as a designer drug. It differs from many dissociatives such as ketamine and phencyclidine (PCP) that were developed as pharmaceutical drugs for use as general anesthetics in that it was designed specifically to increase the antidepressant effects of ketamine.
embutramide
Embutramide (INN, USAN, BAN; brand name Embutane) is a potent sedative drug that is structurally related to GHB. It was developed by Hoechst A.G. in 1958 and was investigated as a general anesthetic agent, but was found to have a very narrow therapeutic window, with a 50 mg/kg dose producing effective sedation and a 75 mg/kg dose being fatal. Along with strong sedative effects, embutramide also produces respiratory depression and ventricular arrhythmia. Because of these properties, it was never adopted for medical use as an anesthetic as it was considered too dangerous for this purpo
m-anisidine
'''m-Anisidine''' is an organic compound with the formula CH3OC6H4NH2. A clear light yellow or amber color liquid, commercial samples can appear brown owing to air oxidation. It is one of three isomers of the methoxy-containing aniline derivative.
3-methoxyphencyclidine
3-Methoxyphencyclidine (3-MeO-PCP) is a dissociative hallucinogen of the arylcyclohexylamine class related to phencyclidine (PCP) which has been sold online as a designer drug. It has been used across Europe and the United States. In some cases, consumption has been known to be fatal. It acts mainly as an NMDA receptor antagonist, though it has also been found to interact with the sigma σ receptor and the serotonin transporter. The drug does not possess any opioid activity nor does it act as a dopamine reuptake inhibitor.
oxyfedrine
Oxyfedrine, sold under the brand names Ildamen and Myofedrin among others, is a sympathomimetic agent and coronary vasodilator which is used in the treatment of coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, and acute myocardial infarction. It is taken by mouth or intravenously.
sarpogrelate
Sarpogrelate (, ), sold under the brand names Anplag and Sapodifil, is a serotonin 5-HT2 receptor antagonist which is used in the treatment of arterial occlusive disorders such as peripheral artery disease in Japan, South Korea, and China. Development in the United States and the European Union was discontinued and it is not available in these regions.
AOH1996
AOH1996 is an experimental anticancer medication which acts as a small molecule inhibitor of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and is in Phase I clinical trials at City of Hope as of August 2023 for the treatment of solid tumors.
3-methoxy-N-methylamphetamine
3-Methoxymethamphetamine (also known as '''meta-methoxymethamphetamine or MMMA'''), which is most closely related to 3-methoxyamphetamine and PMMA and shares similar monoamine releasing effects, although its effects have not been studied so extensively as other related drugs.
xylamidine
Xylamidine is a drug which acts as an antagonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C receptors, and to a lesser extent of the serotonin 5-HT1A receptor. The drug does not cross the blood–brain barrier and hence is peripherally selective, which makes it useful for blocking peripheral serotonergic responses like cardiovascular and gastrointestinal effects, without producing the central effects of 5-HT2A receptor blockade such as sedation, or interfering with the central actions of 5-HT2A receptor agonists.
3-methoxyamphetamine
3-Methoxyamphetamine (3-MA), also known as '''meta-methoxyamphetamine (MMA'), is a monoamine releasing agent (MRA) of the amphetamine family. It is a positional isomer of para''-methoxyamphetamine (PMA; 4-methoxyamphetamine). The drug has been encountered as a novel designer drug.
DMeOB
DMeOB is a drug used in scientific research which acts as a negative allosteric modulator of the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype mGluR5.
anipamil
Anipamil is a calcium channel blocker, specifically of the phenylalkylamine type. This type is separate from its more common cousin Dihydropyridine. Anipamil is an analog of the more common drug verapamil, which is the most common type of phenylalkylamine style calcium channel blocker. Anipamil has been shown to be a more effective antiarrhythmic medication than verapamil because it does not cause hypertension as seen in verapamil. It is able to do this by bonding to the myocardium tighter than verapamil.
