Non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs, usually abbreviated to NSAIDs or NAIDs, are drugs with analgesic, antipyretic and, in higher doses, anti inflammatory effects – they reduce pain, fever and inflammation. Most NSAIDs act as nonselective inhibitors of the enzyme cyclooxygenase, inhibiting both the cyclooxygenase 1 (COX 1) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX 2) isoenzymes. Cyclooxygenase catalyzes […]

Meperidine is an opioid agonist with analgesic and sedative properties used to manage severe pain.

Mephedrone, also known as 4-methyl methcathinone (4-MMC) or 4-methyl ephedrone, is a synthetic stimulant drug of the amphetamine and cathinone classes. Slang names include drone, M-CAT, White Magic and meow meow. It is chemically similar to the cathinone compounds found in the khat plant of eastern Africa. It comes in the form of tablets or […]

Mepivacaine is an amide-type local anesthetic agent. At the injection site, mepivacaine binds to specific voltage-gated sodium ion channels in neuronal cell membranes, which inhibits both sodium influx and membrane depolarization. This leads to a blockage of nerve impulse initiation and conduction and results in a reversible loss of sensation. Compared to other local anesthetics, […]

Meprobamate is a carbamate derivative which is used as an anxiolytic drug. It was the best-selling minor tranquilizer for a time, but has largely been replaced by the benzodiazepines. Although it was marketed as being safer, meprobamate has most of the pharmacological effects and dangers of the barbiturates (though it is less sedating at effective […]

Meropenem is a carbapenemcarboxylic acid in which the azetidine and pyrroline rings carry 1-hydroxymethyl and in which the azetidine and pyrroline rings carry 1-hydroxymethyl and 5-(dimethylcarbamoyl)pyrrolidin-3-ylthio substituents respectively. It has a role as an antibacterial drug, an antibacterial agent and a drug allergen. It is a carbapenemcarboxylic acid, a pyrrolidinecarboxamide, an alpha,beta-unsaturated monocarboxylic acid and […]

Mescaline is a naturally-occurring psychedelic alkaloid. It is used primarily as a recreational drug and is also used to supplement various types of meditation and psychedelic therapy. Users typically experience visual hallucinations and radically altered states of consciousness, often experienced as pleasurable and illuminating but occasionally are accompanied by feelings of anxiety or revulsion.

Mesotrione is the ISO common name for an organic compound that is used as a selective herbicide, especially in maize. A synthetic inspired by the natural substance leptospermone, it inhibits the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase and is sold under brand names including Callisto and Tenacity.

Mestanolone is a DEA Schedule III controlled substance. Substances in the DEA Schedule III have a potential for abuse less than substances in Schedules I or II and abuse may lead to moderate or low physical dependence or high psychological dependence.

Metalaxyl is an acylalanine fungicide with systemic function.[3] Its chemical name is methyl N-(methoxyacetyl)-N-(2,6-xylyl)-DL-alaninate. It can be used to control Pythium in a number of vegetable crops, and Phytophthora in peas. Metalaxyl-M is the ISO common name[4] and Ridomil Gold is the trade name for the optically pure (-) / D / R active stereoisomer, […]

Metamizole is a pyrazole that is antiipyrine substituted at C-4 by a methyl(sulfomethyl)amino group, the sodium salt of which, metamizole sodium, was widely used as a powerful analgesic and antipyretic, but withdrawn from many markets from the 1970s due to a risk of causing risk of causing agranulocytosis. It has a role as an antipyretic, […]

Metformin is an agent belonging to the biguanide class of antidiabetics with antihyperglycemic activity. It is mainly used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and can be used alone or in combination with sulfonylureas, thiazolidinediones or other hypoglycemic agents. Up to now, metformin is the most widely used medication for diabetes taken by mouth.

Methadol has similar effects to other opioids, including analgesia, sedation and euphoria, as well as side effects like itching, nausea and respiratory depression.

Methadone is a synthetic opioid, used medically as an analgesic and a maintenance anti-addictive for use in patients on opioids. Although chemically unlike morphine or heroin, methadone also acts on the opioid receptors and thus produces many of the same effects.

2-Ethylidene-1,5-dimethyl-3,3-diphenylpyrrolidine (EDDP) is a major metabolite of methadone.

Methadone is a synthetic opioid with analgesic activity. Methadone mimics the actions of endogenous peptides at CNS opioid receptors, primarily on the mu-receptor and has actions similar to those of?morphine?and?morphine-like agents. The characteristic?morphine-like effects include analgesia, euphoria, sedation, respiratory depression, miosis, bradycardia and physical dependence. However, the detoxification symptoms between?morphine-like agents and methadone differ in […]
