LoteprednolA corticosteroid indicated in the treatment of pain and inflammation after cataract surgery.
MethapyrileneMethapyrilene, formerly marketed in many drug products, was shown to be a potent carcinogen. Manufacturers voluntarily withdrew methapyriline drug products from the market in May and June 1979.
TranilastFor the treatment of bronchial asthma, keloid and hypertrophic scar, and allergic disorders such as asthma, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis.
