    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.
