Chloramphenicol. Chlornitromycin . Chlorocid . Chloromycetin . Detreomycin . Ophthochlor . Syntomycin . Cloranfenicol . Kloramfenikol . Levomycetin . An antibiotic first isolated from cultures of Streptomyces venequelae in 1947 but now produced synthetically. It has a relatively simple structure and was the first broad-spectrum antibiotic to be discovered. It acts by interfering with bacterial protein synthesis and is mainly bacteriostatic. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 29th ed, p106) . 1.00
Levodopa. 3-Hydroxy-L-tyrosine . Dopaflex . Dopar . L-3,4-Dihydroxyphenylalanine . Larodopa . Levopa . 3 Hydroxy L tyrosine . L 3,4 Dihydroxyphenylalanine . L Dopa . L-Dopa . The naturally occurring form of DIHYDROXYPHENYLALANINE and the immediate precursor of DOPAMINE. Unlike dopamine itself, it can be taken orally and crosses the blood-brain barrier. It is rapidly taken up by dopaminergic neurons and converted to DOPAMINE. It is used for the treatment of PARKINSONIAN DISORDERS and is usually given with agents that inhibit its conversion to dopamine outside of the central nervous system. . 0.57
Candicidin. Candeptin . Candicidin D . Candimon . Levorine . Vanobid . Levorin . Mixture of antifungal heptaene macrolides from Streptomyces griseus or Actinomyces levoris used topically in candidiasis. The antibiotic complex is composed of candicidins A, B, C, and D, of which D is the major component. . 0.56
Norepinephrine. Arterenol . Levonor . Levophed . Levophed Bitartrate . Noradrenaline Bitartrate . Noradrénaline tartrate renaudin . Norepinephrin d-Tartrate (1:1) . Norepinephrine Bitartrate . Norepinephrine Hydrochloride . Norepinephrine Hydrochloride, (+)-Isomer . Norepinephrine Hydrochloride, (+,-)-Isomer . Norepinephrine d-Tartrate (1:1) . Norepinephrine l-Tartrate (1:1) . Norepinephrine l-Tartrate (1:1), (+,-)-Isomer . Norepinephrine l-Tartrate (1:1), Monohydrate . Norepinephrine l-Tartrate (1:1), Monohydrate, (+)-Isomer . Norepinephrine l-Tartrate (1:2) . Norepinephrine l-Tartrate, (+)-Isomer . Norepinephrine, (+)-Isomer . Norepinephrine, (+,-)-Isomer . Bitartrate, Levophed . Bitartrate, Noradrenaline . Bitartrate, Norepinephrine . Hydrochloride, Norepinephrine . renaudin, Noradrénaline tartrate . tartrate renaudin, Noradrénaline . Levarterenol . Levonorepinephrine . Noradrenaline . Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the adrenal medulla and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers and of the diffuse projection system in the brain arising from the locus ceruleus. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic. . 0.54
Dextromethorphan. Delsym . Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide . Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide, (+-)-Isomer . Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide, Monohydrate . Dextromethorphan Hydrochloride . Dextromethorphan, (+-)-Isomer . Levomethorphan . Racemethorphan . l-Methorphan . Hydrobromide, Dextromethorphan . Hydrochloride, Dextromethorphan . d-Methorphan . Methyl analog of DEXTRORPHAN that shows high affinity binding to several regions of the brain, including the medullary cough center. This compound is an NMDA receptor antagonist (RECEPTORS, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE) and acts as a non-competitive channel blocker. It is one of the widely used ANTITUSSIVES, and is also used to study the involvement of glutamate receptors in neurotoxicity. . 0.54
Methotrimeprazine. Levopromazine . Tisercin . Tizercine . Tizertsin . Levomeprazin . Levomepromazine . A phenothiazine with pharmacological activity similar to that of both CHLORPROMAZINE and PROMETHAZINE. It has the histamine-antagonist properties of the antihistamines together with CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM effects resembling those of chlorpromazine. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p604) . 0.53
