Bacitracin
Bacitracin is a combination of at least 9 bacitracins.[A955,A181952] 60-80% of commercially prepared bacitracin is bacitracin A. The bacillus that produces bacitracin was first isolated from a knee scrape in 1945 from the knee wound of a child named Margaret Tracy. Bacitracin was granted FDA approval on 29 July 1948.[A181997,L7748]

Omaveloxolone
Omaveloxolone (RTA-408) is a semisynthetic oleanane triterpenoid with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.[A257534,A257539] Omaveloxolone acts as an activator of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2), a transcription factor that mitigates oxidative stress. In patients with Friedreich's ataxia, a genetic disease involving mitochondrial dysfunction, the Nrf2 pathway is impaired, and Nrf2 activity...

Tirzepatide
Tirzepatide is a novel dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. Dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists gained increasing attention as new therapeutic agents for glycemic and weight control as they demonstrated better glucose control and weight loss compared to selective GLP-1 receptor agonists in preclinical and clinical trials....

Ceftazidime
Bacteria possess a cell wall comprising a glycopeptide polymer commonly known as peptidoglycan, which is synthesized and remodelled through the action of a family of enzymes known as "penicillin-binding proteins" (PBPs). β-lactam antibiotics, including cephalosporins, are PBP inhibitors that, through inhibition of essential PBPs, result in impaired cell wall homeostasis,...

Setmelanotide
Setmelanotide is the first available treatment for patients with pro-opiomelanocortin, proprotein subilisin/kexin type 1, or leptin deficiencies. It is an agonist of the melanocortin 4 receptor. Earlier attempts at agonizing MC4R (such as LY2112688) lead to successful weight loss, but also an increase in blood pressure and heart rate. Other...
