Beclamide

Beclamide is a propionate. It possesses anticonvulsant activity. It has been used as a sedative and as an anticonvulsant. It was studied in the 1950s for its anticonvulsant properties, as a treatment for generalised tonic-clonic seizures. It was not effective for absence seizures. It is no longer used as an AED.

Befiradol

Befiradol is a very potent and highly selective 5-HT_1A receptor full agonist. It has powerful analgesic and antiallodynic effects comparable to those of high doses of opioid painkillers, but with fewer and less prominent side effects, as well as little or no development of tolerance with repeated use.

Befunolol

Befunolol is a beta blocker with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity used in the management of open-angle glaucoma.

Berbamine

Berbamine is a calcium channel blocker.

Betaxolol

Betaxolol is a selective β₁ receptor blocker used in the treatment of hypertension and glaucoma. Being selective for β₁ receptors, it typically has fewer systemic side effects than non-selective beta-blockers. It also shows greater affininty for β₁ receptors than metoprolol. In addition to its effect on the heart, betaxolol reduces the pressure within the eye. This effect is thought to be caused by reducing the production of the liquid within the eye. The reduction in intraocular pressure reduces the risk of damage to the optic nerve and loss of vision in patients with elevated intraocular pressure due to glaucoma.

Bifendate

Bifendate is used as an anti-hepatitis drug for chronic persistent hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis,and so on.

Biguanide

Biperiden

It is also commonly used to improve parkinsonian signs and symptoms related to antipsychotic drug therapy. It relieves muscle rigidity, reduces abnormal sweating and salivation, improves abnormal gait, and to lesser extent, tremor.
