sarolaner
Sarolaner, sold under the brand name Simparica, is an ectoparasiticide veterinary medication for the treatment of flea and tick infestations in dogs. It is also used off-label to control sarcoptic mange and demodectic mange.
sulprostone
Sulprostone is an analogue of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) that has oxytocic activity in assays of rat kidney cells and tissues. There are four known receptors which mediate various but often different cellular and tissue responses to PGE2: prostaglandin EP1 receptor, prostaglandin EP2 receptor, prostaglandin EP3 receptor, and prostaglandin EP4 receptor. Sulprosotone binds to and activates the prostaglandin EP3 receptor with far greater efficacy than the other PGE2 receptors and also has the advantage of being relatively resistant, compared with PGE2, to becoming metabolically degraded. It is liste
zinterol
Zinterol is a beta-adrenergic agonist.
2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)pyridine
Davicil is a chlorinated pyridine derivative with antimicrobial properties, which is used as a fungicide. It can be allergenic in humans and produce contact dermatitis.
setrobuvir
Setrobuvir (also known as ANA-598) was an experimental drug candidate for the treatment of hepatitis C that was discovered at Anadys Pharmaceuticals, which was acquired by Roche in 2011; Roche terminated development in July 2015. It was in Phase IIb clinical trials, used in combination with interferon and ribavirin, targeting hepatitis C patients with genotype 1.
sematilide
Sematilide is an antiarrhythmic agent. It is the same structure as for procainamide, differing only by the placement of a mesyl sulfonamide moiety to the anilino nitrogen.
sulfentrazone

pridopidine
Pridopidine (developmental code name PL-101) is an orally administrated small molecule investigational drug. Pridopidine is a selective and potent sigma-1 receptor agonist. It is being developed by Prilenia Therapeutics and is currently in late-stage clinical development for Huntington's disease (HD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
