atropine oxyde
atropine	An alkaloid, originally from Atropa belladonna, but found in other plants, mainly SOLANACEAE. Hyoscyamine is the 3(S)-endo isomer of atropine.
methylatropine
hyoscyamine	The 3(S)-endo isomer of atropine.
phenobarbital	A barbituric acid derivative that acts as a nonselective central nervous system depressant. It potentiates GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID action on GABA-A RECEPTORS, and modulates chloride currents through receptor channels. It also inhibits glutamate induced depolarizations.
diphenoxylate	A MEPERIDINE congener used as an antidiarrheal, usually in combination with ATROPINE. At high doses, it acts like morphine. Its unesterified metabolite difenoxin has similar properties and is used similarly. It has little or no analgesic activity.
scopolamine	An alkaloid from SOLANACEAE, especially DATURA and SCOPOLIA. Scopolamine and its quaternary derivatives act as antimuscarinics like ATROPINE, but may have more central nervous system effects. Its many uses include an anesthetic premedication, the treatment of URINARY INCONTINENCE and MOTION SICKNESS, an antispasmodic, and a mydriatic and cycloplegic.
magnesium chloride	Magnesium chloride. An inorganic compound consisting of one magnesium and two chloride ions. The compound is used in medicine as a source of magnesium ions, which are essential for many cellular activities. It has also been used as a cathartic and in alloys.
difenoxin	an orally administered antidiarrheal agent which is chemically related to the narcotic meperidine
tropicamide	One of the MUSCARINIC ANTAGONISTS with pharmacologic action similar to ATROPINE and used mainly as an ophthalmic parasympatholytic or mydriatic.
ipratropium	A muscarinic antagonist structurally related to ATROPINE but often considered safer and more effective for inhalation use. It is used for various bronchial disorders, in rhinitis, and as an antiarrhythmic.
fentonium	less effect on eye, heart & gland functions than atropine; proposed for therapy of gastrointestinal ulcers; minor descriptor (78-84); on-line & Index Medicus search ATROPINE DERIVATIVES (78-84); RN given refers to bromide(3(S)-endo)-isomer

oxyphenonium	A quaternary ammonium anticholinergic agent with peripheral side effects similar to those of ATROPINE. It is used as an adjunct in the treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcer, and to relieve visceral spasms. The drug has also been used in the form of eye drops for mydriatic effect.
tropatepine
tiotropium bromide	A scopolamine derivative and CHOLINERGIC ANTAGONIST that functions as a BRONCHODILATOR AGENT. It is used in the treatment of CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE.
follitropin	A protein extract of human menopausal urine in which LUTEINIZING HORMONE has been partially or completely removed. Urofollitropin represents FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE from the urine.
clobenztropine
deptropine	minor descriptor (65-85); on-line & Index Medicus search TROPANES (66-85); RN given refers to parent cpd
eucatropine
etybenzatropine	minor descriptor (65-66); major descriptor (66-79); on-line search ETHYBENZTROPINE (65-79); Index Medicus search ETHYBENZTROPINE (66-79); RN given refers to (endo)-isomer of parent cpd
xenytropium
altropane	a SPECT imaging agent for viewing dopamine transporter sites
butropium
oxitropium
octatropine methylbromide	minor descriptor (65-86); on line & INDEX MEDICUS search TROPANES (69-86); RN given refers to endo-isomer
methylhomatropine
benzatropine	A centrally active muscarinic antagonist that has been used in the symptomatic treatment of PARKINSON DISEASE. Benztropine also inhibits the uptake of dopamine.
cimetropium
flutropium
tigloidine

DrugCentral Search Overview

Drug search example:

Generic drug names, drug synonyms, trade names terms can be used to search for drugs. Example search for Lipitor can query using either “Atorvastatin” or “Lipitor”.A comprehensive list of drug development codes and salt or ester forms are also stored in the database and can be used as search terms, for example search for "rosuvastatin" the following terms can be used: "rosuvastatin calcium" or "ZD4522".

Disease search example:

Supported disease terms are SNOMED-CT and OMOP vocabulary terms. Disease annotations for drugs approved before 2012 originate from OMOP vocabulary mappings. For drugs approved after 2012 disease annotations are extracted manually from approved drug labels and mapped to SNOMED-CT concepts.

Example search for “Chronic Hepatitis C” returns the list of antiviral drugs indicated to treat “Chronic Hepatitis C” followed by drugs contra-indicated in hepatitis C.

New! Substructure Search:
The current update supports chemical substructure searching. Typing a SMILES string in the DrugCentral Substructure search bar launches a chemical substructure search that finds matching compounds in DrugCentral. E.g., N1cnccc1 . SMILES strings can be located on all Drug Cards under "Description".

New! FDA Adverse Event Reporting System:
The 2021 DrugCentral update, we separately calculated FAERS for men and women to enable research on sex differences in drug safety. The 2022 version goes further by computing adverse drug event scores granulated by age: pediatric data (FAERS_PED) covers patients from 1 day to 17 years, and geriatric data (FAERS_GER) focuses on elderly patients over 65 years of age, respectively. Female, Male, Geriatric & Pediatrics. E.g., amfetamine

New! Target Cards:
To perform a target card search enter a Uniprot target Accession ID e.g., P23975. The target cards depict the "Accession", "Swissprot", "Organism", "Gene" & "Target class" followed by "Drug relations" where the drugs "Bioactivity mechanism-of-actions" are identified.

Target search example:

Supported target search terms are HUGO gene symbols, Uniprot accessions and target names, and Swissprot identifiers. Example search for drugs targeting Mu-type opioid receptor can be run using either of the terms: “OPRM1”, P35372, “OPRM_HUMAN”, full or partial Uniprot target name. Returned drugs are ranked using the following criteria: top ranked drugs have mechanism of action target Mu-type opioid receptor, next in the list are drugs with potencies measured against this receptor.

In collaboration with the IDG

New! Veterinary Drugs, Uses & Products:

Drug Central now contains Veterinary Drugs, Uses & Products. The current update adds 1805 bioactivities for 226 veterinary drugs and 804 targets. DrugCentral veterinary data contains application numbers and types, trade names, applicant names, and prescription types for 1492 drug products as referenced in FDA’s Green Book. DrugCentral currently holds 1664 indications (pairs of drug and concept names) for 34 species. Dogs, cattle, and cats sum up to 63% of the indications covered by 193 veterinary drugs. Veterinary Drug Use can be found on each drug card by selecting the sub menu link: 🐶 Veterinary Use on the drug card. E.g., enrofloxacin

Pharmacologic action search example:

Supported pharmacologic action terms are MeSH, FDA [EPC, MoA, PE], ChEBI action roles.

Example search for “HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor” FDA EPC term for statin drugs returns list of all statin drugs classified by FDA as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors.

Ranked result list is annotated with 4 level ranking system ordered from highest to lowest:

A - query term matched drug name or synonyms, mechanism of action target, or drug indication.

B - query term matched disease term in drug contraindications or off-label uses, targets listed in drug bioactivity profiles (not MoA targets), or pharmacologic action descriptions.

C - query term matched short drug description text.

D - query term matched full text in FDA drug labels.
