5-alpha-reductase inhibitors

5-Alpha-reductase inhibitors block the action of 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme that

converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone, . The activity of 5-alpha-reductase
inhibitors results in increased levels of testosterone and decreased levels of
dihydrotestosterone.
5-Alpha-reductase inhibitors are used to treat baldness, prostate hyperplasia and
prostate cancer.

5-aminosalicylates
Aminosalicylates are anti-inflammatory agents used to treat inflammatory bowel disease
and some forms of arthritis. They work by inhibiting the production of cyclo-oxygenase
and prostaglandin, thromboxane synthetase, platelet activating factor synthetase, and
interleukin-1 by macrophages so reduces the acute inflammatory response in
inflammatory bowel disease.
Production of immunoglobulin by plasma cells is also decreased.
Aminosalicylates are used to treat ulcerative colitis, proctitis and Crohn's disease.

5HT3 receptor antagonists

Serotonin (5-HT3) receptor antagonists block the vomiting reflex by inhibiting 5-HT3
receptors in the vomiting center, the chemoreceptor trigger zone and in the small
intestine.
5-HT3 receptor antagonists are used to treat nausea and vomiting triggered by cytotoxic
drugs.

Adamantane antivirals
Adamantane antivirals are only active against influenza A virus, an RNA virus, but has
no action against influenza B virus. A viral membrane protein, M2, functions as an ion
channel at two stages of the viral replication within the host cell. These stages are the
fusion of viral membrane and endosome membrane, and the assembly and release of
new virions. Adamantane antivirals block this ion channel.

Adrenal cortical steroids

Adrenal cortical steroids or corticosteroids are hormones synthesized by the adrenal
cortex. There are two types of corticosteroids, glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids.
Glucocorticoids e.g. cortisol and cortisone, are essential for the utilization of
carbohydrate, fat and protein by the body and for normal response to stress. Naturally
occurring and synthetic glucocorticoids have very powerful anti-inflammatory effects and
are used to treat conditions that involve inflammation. They also decrease the body's
immune response. Mineralocorticoids e.g. aldosterone are necessary for regulation of
salt and water in the body.
Please refer to the drug classes listed below for further information.

Adrenal corticosteroid inhibitors

A drug may be classified by the chemical type of the active ingredient or by the way it is
used to treat a particular condition. Each drug can be classified into one or more drug
classes.
Adrenal corticosteroid inhibitors are drugs that inhibit key steps in the biosynthesis of
hormones produced by the adrenal cortex, such as mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids,
estrogen and androgen. Adrenal corticosteroid inhibitors block one or more enzymes in
the steroid synthesis pathway. They are used to treat Cushing's syndrome and some
types of cancers. They are also used as diagnostic tools, such as in procedures to
check pituitary function.

Adrenergic bronchodilators
A drug may be classified by the chemical type of the active ingredient or by the way it is
used to treat a particular condition. Each drug can be classified into one or more drug
classes.
Adrenergic bronchodilators (specifically beta2-adrenoreceptor agonists) dilate the
bronchi by a direct action on the beta2-adrenoreceptors on the bronchial smooth muscle
and relax the muscle.
There are two categories of beta2-adrenoreceptor agonists used in asthma. The short
acting adrenergic bronchodilators are used on an as needed basis to control symptoms
of asthma. The longer acting bronchodilators are used regularly, twice daily, as adjunct
therapy in patients whose asthma is poorly controlled by inhaled corticosteroids.
