Oxamniquine
An anthelmintic with schistosomicidal activity against Schistosoma mansoni, but not against other Schistosoma spp. Oxamniquine causes worms to shift from the mesenteric veins to the liver where the male worms are retained; the female worms return to the mesentery, but can no longer release eggs.

Nitroxoline
Nitroxoline is only found in individuals that have used or taken this drug. It is a urinary antibacterial agent active against susceptible gram-positive and gram-negative organisms commonly found in urinary tract infections. It is a fluorquinolone that is active against bacterial gyrases.This drug may also have antitumor activity by inhibition of ype 2 methionine aminopeptidase (MetAP2) protein which is involved in angiogenesis. Its antibacterial activity may stem from the metal ion complexation vital for bacterial growth.
