4'-Acetyl simvastatin is a synthetic statin that inhibits cholesterol synthesis by competitively inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase. The reaction yield of 4'-acetyl simvastatin is high, and it has been shown to be effective at a lower dose than other statins. Impurities are not detected in this drug, and it has a low toxicity profile. Some impurities may be formed during the synthesis process due to reactions with acid catalysts, esterases, or expressed chloride. Other impurities such as hydroxyanisole and amination reaction products can be found in this drug due to its manufacturing process, which includes methyl alcohol and chemoenzymatic reactions.

Dihydrexidine hydrochloride is a phosphate ion transport inhibitor that binds to the acetylcholine transporter, and inhibits the uptake of acetylcholine in the brain. It is used as an opioid analgesic, as well as to treat depression, cognitive disorders, and Parkinson's disease. Dihydrexidine hydrochloride binds to the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) enzyme and prevents it from breaking down dopamine. This leads to increased levels of dopamine in the synapse and enhanced transmission of nerve impulses between neurons. Dihydrexidine hydrochloride also has been shown to bind to antigen molecules on cells, which may be important for its antiviral properties.
