Not selectively suppresses COX1 and COX2. The analgetic effect is observed in 30 min. after peroral intake, the antiinflammatory effect occurs by the end of the 1 (first) week of treatment by Feldene. After a single dose of Feldene it acts during 24 h.
Etodolac - has an anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antipyretic effect. The medicine is prescribed in case of rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, arthrosis with pain syndrome and restriction of movements, acute and chronic osteoarthritis.
Septra - Sulfamethoxazole is an antibiotic that treats various types of infections caused by bacteria. The combination of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim is used to treat ear infection, urinary tract infection, prostate infection, bronchitis, travelers' diarrhea and pneumocystis pneumonia.

Hytrin refers to the group of pharmaceutical products intended to cure the sexual/urinary maladies and sex hormone medical preparations. Its composition includes Terazozin - a medical mean for the normalization of the prostate gland in benign hypertrophy.
Astelin belongs to antihistamines which purpose is to block histamines in the human organism. It’s a spray that deletes nasal congestion, itching, and sneezing. The medicine is effective in case of infection, inflammation, and allergic reaction which result in itching, stuffy, and runny nose. Medics usually prescribe it for adults and children above five (in case of seasonal allergy) and above twelve (in case of vasomotor rhinitis that constricts and dilates a vein, artery, or capillary in the nasal cavity).

Prescribed for gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer in acute phase, erosive-ulcerative esophagitis, reflux esophagitis, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, stress ulcers of the gastrointestinal tract; eradication of Helicobacter pylori within a combination therapy, non-ulcer dyspepsia.
Calcium channel blocker, a derivative of 1,4-dihydropyridine, has a predominantly cerebrovasculative and antiischemic action. Prescribed for the prevention and treatment of brain ischemia on the background of subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by aneurysm rupture, expressed by brain disfunction in the elderly patients. It can prevent or eliminate spasm of vessels caused by various vasoconstrictor drugs. Improves stability and functional capacity of neurons.
Pharmacological influence of Calan is explained by braking of a flow of calcium ions through the slowed-down calcic tubules of cellular covers of smooth muscle structure of vessels and a cardiac muscle. Calan is prescribed if it was diagnosed paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (except WPW syndrome), sinus tachycardia, premature atrial contraction, blinking and atrial flutter, stenocardia (inc. stress, postinfarction), arterial hypertension, hypertensive crisis, idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Actonel, which is risedronate - is prescribed for treatment and prevention of osteoporosis (post-menopausal, caused by corticosteroids), Paget disease. Risedronate binds to substance of a bone tissue, inhibits its resorption mediated by osteoclasts and reduces a bone turn (does not break process of formation of a bone). It increases the biomechanical strength and volume of bone mass. The maximum decrease in a bone turn is observed in 3-6 months, remaining at the same level during a course of treatment.
Eulexin - antineoplastic medicine, anti-androgen. Competitively blocks interaction of androgens with their cellular receptors; interferes with manifestation of biological effects of male sex hormones in androgensensetive organs. It is taken for palliative treatment of cancer.

Active alendronate ingredient - non-hormonal specific inhibitor of an osteoclastic bone resorption, suppresses osteoclasts. Taking of Fosamax stimulates bone formation, recovers positive balance between a resorption and recovery of a bone, progressively increases the mineral density of bones, promotes formation of a normal bone tissue with normal histologic structure.
Cilostazol - reversibly oppresses aggregation of thrombocytes caused by various incentives, surpassing in this respect Аspirin, Dipiridamolum, Тiclopidine and Pentoxifylline. It also inhibits formation of arterial blood clots and proliferation of smooth muscle cells, possesses vasodilating action.

The drug dilates coronary vessels (mostly arterioles) and causes a significant increase in volumetric blood flow velocity. Increases the content of oxygen in venous blood of coronary sinus and its absorption by myocardium. Promotes the development of collateral coronary circulation, reduction in a systemic vascular resistance, improves microcirculation, has angioprotective action.
Dramamine is an antihistamine drug that reduces the effect of the natural chemical histamine in the body. Dramamine is used to treat or prevent the occurrence of nausea, vomiting, and dizziness associated with motion sickness.
