The textbook Medicinal Chemistry – II offers a detailed exploration of various therapeutic agents and their pharmacological actions. It begins with antihistaminic agents, discussing histamine, its receptors, and a variety of H1 and H2 antagonists. It covers proton pump inhibitors and extends into antineoplastic agents, with a focus on alkylating agents, antimetabolites, and plant-derived products. Anti-anginal drugs, including vasodilators and calcium channel blockers, are examined next, followed by a section on diuretics. Other topics include antihypertensive drugs, antiarrhythmics, antihyperlipidemic agents, coagulants, anticoagulants, and drugs for treating congestive heart failure. The book also delves into endocrine system agents, with sections on sex hormones, corticosteroids, and drugs for erectile dysfunction. Antidiabetic agents, including insulin and oral hypoglycemics, are thoroughly covered. The text concludes with local anesthetics, emphasizing their structure-activity relationships and various chemical classes.
