This document lists various drugs, their classifications, indications, and mechanisms of action. It includes proton pump inhibitors like omeprazole which suppress gastric acid secretion, anti-convulsants like levetiracetam which inhibit epileptiform burst firing, and anti-fibrinolytics like tranexamic acid which inhibit plasminogen. The drugs listed treat conditions from gastroesophageal reflux to seizures to excessive bleeding and their mechanisms range from inhibiting acid production to preventing bacterial protein synthesis to stimulating GI motility.

Drugs Classification Indication Mechanism of Action
Omeprazole Proton-pump inhibitor used to treat symptoms of Suppresses gastric acid
(Prilosec) gastroesophageal reflux secretion by specific disease (GERD) and other inhibition of the hydrogen conditions caused by excess potassium ATP as enzyme stomach acid. It is also used system at the secretory to promote healing of erosive surface of the gastric parietal esophagitis (damage to your cells; blocks the final step of esophagus caused by acid production stomach acid)
Levetiracetam Anti-convulsant used in combination with Appears to inhibit burst
(Keppra) other medications to treat firing without affecting seizure disorders normal neuronal excitability and may selectively prevent hypersynchronization of epileptiform burst firing and propagation of seizure activity. Drugs Classification Indication Mechanism of Action Tranexamic acid Anti-fibrinolytic Treatment of excessive Inhibits action of (Hemostan) bleeding from systemic or plasminogen local Metoclopramide Dopaminergic blocker Relief of symptoms of Stimulates motility of (Maxolon) acute and recurrent upper GI tract without diabetic gastroparesis stimulating gastric, biliary or pancreatic secretions Mannitol Osmotic diuretic Treatment of acute Increase the osmotic (Osmitrol) oliguric renal failure pressure of the glomerular filtrate and inhibiting reabsorption of water and electrolytes Ceftriaxone Cephalosporin Lowers respiratory Inhibits synthesis of (Rocephin) infections caused by bacterial cell wall causing Streptococcus pneumonia, cell death staphylococcus aureus, haemophilus influenza, E. coli Drugs Classification Indication Mechanism of Action
Azithromycin Macrolides Treatment of lower prevents bacteria from
(Zithromax) respiratory infections: growing by interfering Acute bacterial with their protein exacerbations of COPD synthesis due to Haemophilus influenza, Streptococcus Pneumoniae, Community Acquired Pneumonia Diazepam Benzodiazepine Treat anxiety, alcohol It increases neuronal (Valium) withdrawal, and seizures. membrane permeability to chloride ions by binding to stereospecific
Gabapentin Anti-convulsant Treatment of partial and
(Neurontin) generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Drugs Classification Indication Mechanism of Action
Lactulose Laxative Treatment of constipation Increase the osmotic
(Enulose) pressure in the colon and slightly acidify the colonic contents, resulting in an increase in water stool content, stool softening, laxative action Paracetamol Analgesic Antipyretic To relieve mild to May caused analgesia by (Panadol) moderate pain due to inhibiting CNS things such as headache prostaglandin synthesis and it also used to bring down high temperature.
