| Applications: | dermatologic drug A drug used to treat or prevent skin disorders or for the routine care of skin. geroprotector Any compound that supports healthy aging, slows the biological aging process, or extends lifespan. anti-inflammatory agent Any compound that has anti-inflammatory effects. cardiovascular drug A drug that affects the rate or intensity of cardiac contraction, blood vessel diameter or blood volume. antiparkinson drug A drug used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. laxative An agent that produces a soft formed stool, and relaxes and loosens the bowels, typically used over a protracted period, to relieve constipation. Compare with cathartic, which is a substance that accelerates defecation. A substances can be both a laxative and a cathartic. antiinfective agent A substance used in the prophylaxis or therapy of infectious diseases. insulin-sensitizing drug An agent which overcomes insulin resistance by activation of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma). antidepressant Antidepressants are mood-stimulating drugs used primarily in the treatment of affective disorders and related conditions. antispasmodic drug A drug that suppresses spasms. These are usually caused by smooth muscle contraction, especially in tubular organs. The effect is to prevent spasms of the stomach, intestine or urinary bladder. cardiovascular drug A drug that affects the rate or intensity of cardiac contraction, blood vessel diameter or blood volume. antineoplastic agent A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms. |
