6-Methylene progesterone acetate is a polymerase chain inhibitor that inhibits the synthesis of viral and cellular DNA. It was first isolated from infected cells in tissue culture and has been shown to inhibit the growth of a wide range of viruses, including rabies, herpes simplex, herpes zoster, cytomegalovirus, varicella-zoster virus, and vesicular stomatitis virus. 6MPAA also blocks the production of gene products in mammalian cells by preventing RNA synthesis. This drug can be used as an antiviral agent for treatment of enteritis caused by rotavirus infection. 6MPAA binds to gp2 protein on the surface of virus particles and prevents this protein from interacting with polyclonal antibodies or monoclonal antibodies to prevent antibody response.

Acyclovir is an antiviral agent that prevents the growth of herpes simplex virus. Acyclovir is a prodrug, which is converted to acycloguanosine 5'-triphosphate (ACV-TP) in vivo. ACV-TP inhibits viral DNA polymerase and thereby prevents viral genome replication, replication. The molecular structure of Acyclovir was determined by X-ray crystallography at 3.2 Å resolution. It has been shown that ACV-TP can be activated by chloride ions and it has been suggested that this activation may be the result of an interaction with a ligand.
ACV-TP binds to guanine residues in the DNA chain and prevents the formation of hydrogen bonds between guanine and adenine or cytosine residues in the same chain, preventing DNA replication.

2-Mercaptobenzimidazole is a chemical compound that can be used for the treatment of infectious diseases. It has been shown to have antioxidative properties and inhibit the growth of bacteria. 2-Mercaptobenzimidazole also has an effect on human serum, which may be due to its ability to bind with proteins in serum and form hydrogen bonds. 2-Mercaptobenzimidazole is stable at high temperatures and has been shown as an effective antimicrobial agent against gram positive and gram negative bacteria.

Lercandipine Impurity A is a metabolite of the drug lercandipine. It is synthesized in the body by oxidation at the benzylic position of the cinnamoyl moiety. This impurity may be present in lercandipine-containing drugs and products, as well as in other drugs and products containing lercandipine. Lercandipine Impurity A has been shown to inhibit the metabolism of lercandipine and may also have anti-inflammatory properties. It is used as an analytical standard for HPLC, pharmacopoeia, drug development, and metabolism studies. Lercandipine Impurity A is found in the following: -Impurities of Lercandipine -Custom synthesis -Lercandipine Drug Product -Synthetic -High purity -Pharmacopoeia -Drug development

Olmesartan medoxomil is a prodrug that is metabolized to the active form, olmesartan, in the liver. The esters of olmesartan medoxomil are metabolized by hydrolysis and by esterases. The most common side effects of olmesartan medoxomil are headache, dizziness, fatigue, nausea and diarrhea. Olmesartan medoxomil is used for the treatment of high blood pressure in adults. This drug also has anti-inflammatory properties due to its inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis.
