Medical knowledge has increased immensely since the 20th century, and continues to expand as research is carried out. This database contains notes on some of the more common medicines at the disposal of a 24th century Starfleet medic. A Acetylcholine Biochemical substance, a neurotransmitter that promotes the propagation of electrical impulses from one nerve cell to another in carbon-based life. Julian Bashir used a medication designed to increase acetylcholine absorption to increase Melora's tensile muscular strength, thus enabling her to walk ("Melora" [DS9]). Increased amounts of acetylcholine in Harry Kim's nervous system caused him (and others in the prison camp) to exhibit erratic behaviour ("The Chute" [VOY]). Acinolyathin An NSAID analgesic used to treat mild to moderate pain and inflammation. Adanine One of the nucleotides included in the marking sequence that made up the cure to the Founders' disease. Adrenaline Also known as epinephrine, a hormone and neurotransmitter. It is used to prevent death from anaphylactic shock (severe allergic reaction), or cardiac arrest. It has also been found useful against some radiation poisoning, and has been successful in treating a radiation type that caused hyper-acceleration of the aging process. ADTH A stimulant which can also be dispersed in a gaseous form through the life support system of a typical Federation Starship. Alcohol A chemical that acts as a psychoactive drug with intoxicating effects when consumed, known to be addictive and can result in poisoning when consumed in high quantities. It can also be used as a disinfectant and as an antiseptic gel, though usually only when there are no other options. Alizine A medicine used to counteract anaphylactic shock, specifically in Klingons. Alkysine A drug used to reduce the damage caused to neurological tissue following the event of a catastrophic injury. Ambizine Administered via hypo spray and used as a fast-acting sedative.. Anabolic Supplements Helps resist harvester nanobiogenic weapons. Anaerobic Metabolite A medical substance. For his "cellular entertainment" chamber, Dr. Giger wanted two liters (later said to be five liters) of this, suspended in a hydrosaline solution. Jake and Nog obtained it from Bashir, in exchange for their retrieving Kukalaka from Leeta. Analeptic Compound Used to counter the detrimental effects of certain types of radiation, including theta radiation. Anesthezine A fast-acting opioid-based anesthetic. It could be deployed as a gas or administered as a liquid through a hypospray. It took approximately 1.4 seconds for individuals to be rendered unconscious by Anesthezine gas. The effect usually lasted between 2-12 hours, and affected individuals could experience memory lapses after they woke up. It was considered to be one of the best in use by the Federation. Cases of Anesthezine overdose were usually treated with Naloxone. Anetrizine A local anesthetic deployed via a hypospray, typically used to numb specific nerves to remove sensation and induce paralysis. Animazine A stimulant that could be used to awaken someone from sleep, or keep them conscious for longer durations than naturally able. Anticoagulant A medicine administered to prevent or reduce the clotting of blood. Anti-intoxicant Used to prevent inebriation. Arithrazine Used in extreme cases of theta radiation poisoning, it can also serve as an inoculation. According to Starfleet medical protocol, medical officer should constantly monitor a patient receiving this treatment. Asinolyathin Analgesic. Asporadine One of the nucleotides included in the marking sequence that made up the cure to the Founders' disease. Axonol A gaseous anesthetic authorised for use by the Federation as a crowd-control measure. B Benjisidrine An anti-arrhythmic used to regulate some heart conditions. Benzocyatizine A medication used to treat low isoboramine levels in Trill, which regulated the connection between symbiont and host. Bicaridine A strong, addictive, pain reliever used to treat pain from traumatic injuries such as disruptor blasts. Is a known substitute for Metorapan. Biomemetic Gel A medical substance, the sale of which is prohibited by Federation law. Even attempting to obtain it is a felony (presumably unless one is a doctor). This is because in the wrong hands, it can be used to make biogenic weapons, to conduct illegal replication experiments, or to develop organic explosives. Altovar attacked Bashir when the doctor caught him stealing it, after having refused to give or sell Altovar some. [Distant Voices] Sisko ordered Bashir to release 85 liters of it, which Bashir did under protest after demanding to see the order in writing. The gel was traded to a source of Garak's in exchange for an optolythic data rod. Bolamite Treatment for Omega radiation exposure. Borathium An experimental rybotherapy medication used to replace Leporazine and Morathial. C Caffeine A stimulant consumed in a variety of foods and beverages. If consumed regularly, it can become addictive and can cause side effects such as insomnia, gastrointestinal distress and hypertension. Cateline A drug that can simulate anaphylactic shock when administered. Cervaline A drug used to limit rejection of transplanted organs or tissue. Chloromydride A cardio-stimulatory drug used where Inaprovaline is ineffective or may cause allergic reactions. It is usually used in concert with cardiac and neural stimulators for additional benefits. Cordrazine A powerful stimulant primarily used during cardiac arrest, but can also be used to revive a stunned or unconscious patient completely. Use of Cordrazine should be carefully monitored - overdose can lead to delusional paranoia, and the drug is addictive. Cordaline A drug Bashir called for when trying to revive Quark. Corophizine An antibiotic with minimal side effects used primarily in order to prevent secondary infections. Cortical Analeptic Administered via hypospray, it reinvigorates tissue within the cerebral and motor cortex following disruptions to the neural functions. Cortolin A resuscitative drug that was primarily used in reviving patients who have stopped breathing. Cortropine A stimulant found in standard-issue medkits which could stimulate the recipient to overcome symptoms of weakness or fatigue. A standard dosage is 5 milligrams. Crediline This drug makes the user more likely to believe anything that they are told. Its use has been superseded by more effective memory blockers. Cryptobiolin Used to improve the skills of soldiers. Cyalodin Poison. D Dalaphaline A systemic stimulant that can strengthen individuals after neurological trauma. Standard dosage is 5ccs. Delactovine A common stimulant with few side effects. It is mildly addictive. Deoxyribose suspensions Fluid derived from DNA. Dermaline A drug typically administered by injection as a preemptive measure when there was a risk of exposure to high level UV radiation. Dermalplast Medical preparation used to treat chemical burns ("Demon" [VOY]). Dermaline Gel A thick white gel made from dermaline compounds that could be used to soothe and treat first and second degree burns. Dermal Osmotic Sealant Medicinal skin application used as a protection against epidermal irritation such as that caused by exposure to trigemic vapors Dermatiraeliene Plasticine Used to maintain the effects of cosmetic surgery Desegranine Used to reverse memory loss Deuridium Used by the Kobliad to stabilize cellular structure Dexaline This is used to treat oxygen deprivation. Digoxin Administered via hypospray, digoxin can be used to treat atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and heart failure, but is toxic in higher doses. Dylamadon This is a powerful neuro-inhibitor that can be used to simulate death in an individual. Dylovene An antitoxin carried as standard in Starfleet medkits. E Elasian Tears Love potion. F Fanalian Toddy Hot drink that soothes coughs. Felicium An addictive narcotic that grants the user a euphoric sensation with both pain-relieving and sedative side effects. Serious withdrawal symptoms tend to occur within 72 hours. Felodesine Chip Used by Romulans for suicide if captured Formazine A common stimulant acting through the lymphatic system on the central nervous system. Normally used to promote alertness and reduce fatigue, in higher doses, or with prolonged use (more than three days) it can cause severe restlessness and irritability. It has minimal side effects. G Genericillin A powerful general purpose antibiotic. Genetic Resequencing Vector Medical suspension formulated to shut down Borg nanoprobes as they emerge from dormancy ("The Raven" [VOY]). Glucagen Raises blood sugar levels. H Hexadrin Medication used in the treatment of Yarim Fel syndrome ("Ties of Blood and Water" [DS9]). Hydrocortilene A general analgesic used primarily for headaches and cranial injuries. A dose of 3% is sufficient for a mild headache, whereas increased doses were necessary for more debilitating injuries, such as concussion. Hypercoagulin Stops bleeding very quickly. This is unnecessary when using Anabolic Protoplasers, although a version of this drug for localized use on wounds in the field may exist. Hyperzine A standard stimulant that can be used to counter seizures. A standard dosage is twenty ccs. Hyronalyn Used to counter the effects of radiation poisoning, the efficacy can be enhanced when combined with lectrazine. Hyvroxilated Quintethyl Metacetamine Anesthetic potion. Quark tried to get Bashir to ingest in a drink before the racquetball match with O'Brien. I Immunosuppressant Any of several pharmaceuticals designed to limit immune response in humanoids. Dr. Crusher used immunosuppressants in 2367 to help William Riker successfully carry the Trill symbiote, Ambassador Odan, within hisbody("TheHost" [TNG]). Impedrezene Designed to help stimulate cardiac function, this drug can also be used to counter the effects of psilocybin. A dosage of 2cc should be followed with osteogenic stimulator Improvoline A standard sedative that can be used in smaller doses, such as 5ccs, to calm and pacify a patient. Higher doses can be used to keep a patient sedated for longer periods of time. Inaprovaline A synaptic stimulant and cardio-stimulant that fortifies the cell membranes and can be used as a preventative measure or in response to various physical illnesses and states to help stabilize a patient. Inpedrazine Used after cranial trauma. Intraspinal Inhibitor Used to induce paralysis. K Kayolane A standard sedeative causes immediate unconsciousness and lasts for 1-6 hours depending on the patient's metabolism. Kelotane A drug typically administered via hypospray that was used to treat severe burns that were caused by high levels of harmful radiation. Ketracel-White Used to control Jem'Hadar. The isogenic enzyme that the Jem'Hadar are "addicted" to. The supplies are controlled by the Vorta, under the Founders. The Jem'Hadar call it "white" for short. [Hippocratic Oath] One of its active ingredients is uridium bycantizine. Note: in the movie Star Trek: Insurrection, it was mentioned that Ketracel-white had been manufactured by the Son'a. Ketracel-white was also erroneously referred to as a narcotic. A specific genetic defect must be in place before the need for Ketracel White arises. Kironide Aides in psychokinetic powers. L Lectrazine A drug that can be used to stabilise the cardiovascular and renal systems in the event of shock or disruption in normal cardiac functions. If combined with hyronalin, it can be used as for temporary protection from radiation poisoning. A standard dose is twenty milligrams. Leporazine A resuscitative drug with minimal side effects, but should not be administered to a patient with low blood pressure. Lexorin A neurotransmitter inhibitor. This drug temporarily diminishes intelligence, but each dose also makes psychic and psionic intrusions harder. Lexorin can also calm excited or agitated patients. In greater dosages than 3 in 24 hours, the patient also begins to lose manual dexterity, as the Central Nervous System begins to lose control of voluntary functions. Lexorin is mildly addictive, and causes the patient to feel overconfident and happy. It is also a drug that could block telephac indeaseable effects, for example alleviate symptoms of malaise and/or multiple personality disorder in those who experienced a Vulcan mind meld , or who carried a Vulcan katra. It is ill-advised to use it on Vulcans who voluntarily carry an extra katra. Losorin Used to counteract mental disorientation. Lytastolanine One of the nucleotides included in the marking sequence that made up the cure to the Founders' disease. M Macrospentol Used to improve the skill of soldiers. Makho Root Antidote for the Mugato bite. Makara herb Increases progesterone levels. Maraji Crystal Controlled addictive substance. Masiform D A powerful stimulant that can be used to counteract the effects of poisoning. It has a side effect of an upset stomach in Vulcans. Melorazine A standard sedative that at lower doses can be used to calm a patient, or cause unconsciosness. Standard dosage for unconsciousness is twenty ccs. Memory Blockers These are used to permanently block specific memories in a patient. This is useful if a patient has seen something unpleasant, or has been exposed to information that may violate the Prime Directive. Memory-Beta This drug stimulates the users memory. It allows the user to attempt to remember something that has been forgotten. Merfadon A standard sedative that can be rendered inert depending on what other drugs or supplements the patient is taking. Metabolic Reduction Injection Reduces heart rate and bodily functions. Metrazine A drug that can be used to stabilise the cardiovascular system in the event of shock or disruption in normal cardiac functions. Metorapan A formidable pain reliever used to treat more severe injuries. It is very similar to bicaridine, though without the risk of addiction. However it can cause fatal allergic reactions in around 1% of cases. Mirazine A drug used to reduce the time necessary for decompression when boarding and leaving starships. Morathial Similar to leporazine, it can be used as a resuscitative measure without risk to the patient's blood pressure. Morphazine Puts patients into deep, dreamless sleep for 3-18 hours. Morphenolog Analgesic anti-convulsive used primarily in the treatment for chronic pain. It can also be used in conjunction with other medications to reduce painful side effects. Morphogenic Enzymes There were some residual ones in Odo's brain even though he had become a solid. When the runabout he, Sisko, Dax, and Garak were in encountered a plasma storm, the enzymes were activated, initiating a telepathic response. Odo's mind unconsciously reached out to Link with other Changelings, but only Sisko, Dax, and Garak were there, resulting in their sharing his flashback. Mylar II With reconstructive surgery it is possible to conceal a person's true race. However reconstructive surgery on an entire platoon or company is not always an option time or facilities wise. The drug, Mylar II, causes the top layers of skin and flesh to become more pliable. Thus with Mylar II injections a human could easily appear to be a Romulan or Vulcan. There is a limit to what these injections can do. A Mylar II Cardassian would take a few hours, be quite painful and require the use of some prostectics. None of these disguises will fool a medical tricorder or a very detailed inspection. These disguises may also require some form of makeup to be complete. N Naloxone Medicine used to treat overdoses caused by opioid-based compounds. It was possible to use it as an airborne agent to render Anesthezine gas ineffective for a time. It had a shorter half-life than Anesthezine, its effects were considered a temporary solution. Neo-anapaptic transmitter Biochemical neurostimulant. First dose increases heart rate and eases stress of a high gravity. Second dose can lessen natural damage of a phaser blast even set to kill. Neodextraline Solution Liquid administered intravenously for the treatment of severe dehydration. Netinaline A stimulant that can be used to resuscitate a patient. A standard dosage is 2ccs. Neural Paralyser Causes cessation of heartbeat. Neuroelectrical Suppressors Medical instrument used to suppress pain. The device that Verad preferred over the delta wave inducer ("Invasive Procedures" [DS9]). Neurotransmitter biochemical responsible for neural electric energy. Neurovine This drug is an antidote for nerve poison. Not to be confused with Neurozine. Neurozine A gaseous anesthetic that was fast acting and could be dispensed through the typical environmental control systems on a Federation Starship. Not to be confused with Neurovine. Nogatch Hemlock Poisonous substance Norep Used to revive. 2cc dose derivative of Norepinepherine. Norepinephrine Similar to adrenaline. Numinol Tetramidaphin 20 cc's were given by Bashir to Vargas to relieve fever and congestion. O Ovarian Resequencing Enzymes Given by Bashir to Dax to enable her to conceive a child with Worf. P Peridaxon Palliative treatment. Polyadrenaline A synthetic version of adrenaline that can be used as a stimulant and can aid the revival of a patient who has died or is near death. Polynutrient Solution Restorative formula full of nutrients. Pramazine A poison developed by the Obsidian Order for use by operatives in case of capture. Death is quick, and the body is reduced to dust within hours, rendering it unidentifiable. Dukat's followers were going to take it in order to shed their corporeal bodies. Priaxate A drug used to lessen the symptoms of plague that afflicted the Valakians because the proteins that bound to their chromosomes were deteriorating. Psilosynine Helps Betazoids filter trauma from reading victims. Psychoactive Drugs Used to produce delusional or hallucinogenic affects. Pulmozine A drug used to treat oxygen deprivation and stimulate breathing. Purge This drug cleanses the user's systems of foreign biochemicals, and neutralizes active drugs (including recreational drugs and alcohol) within minutes. Q Quadroline An emergency resuscitative drug that is used to treat cardiac arrhythmias. R Rage This drug gives the user double strength and berserker rage for 10-60 minutes. This drug is considered unethical by Federation standards. Radanine One of the nucleotides included in the marking sequence that made up the cure to the Founders' disease. Retnax V Used to treat nearsightedness. Rexlin This drug can be used as a tranquilizer, a pain killer and a sedative. All is depending on the dose administered. Ryetalyn Mineral antibiotic. Used to treat Rigelian fever. S Serotonin Central Neurotransmitter. Shaker This is an experimental neurotransmitter enhancer which increases the patient's health, strength and dexterity every 15 seconds, but decreases intelligence by a similar amount. Users also temporarily gain the overconfidence and a high pain threshold. This drug is considered unethical by the Federation. Stenophyl A drug used to treat anaphylactic shock. Stokaline A multivitamin administered via injection. Suspend Slows down all biological functions. This is similar to the Stasis Field. In sickbays, a Stasis Field is used. Synaptizine A drug used to treat neuroleptic shock. Synthehol A chemical that replicates the properties of alcohol, without the effects of intoxication, addiction, or poisoning. T Takaria Herbs A Bajoran herbal medication which Bashir gave O'Brien for Kira's swollen ankles. He said she would need to dissolve them in fruit juice before ingesting them. Terakine An analgesic often used to ease the pain from broken bones and similar injuries. Tesokine A drug used to facilitate cross-species surrogacy by allowing a baby from one species to properly metabolize the nutrients from another species while in the womb. Tessikide Presumably a Bajoran hormone. Bashir was going to inject high doses into Kira to enable the O'Briens' baby to metabolize Bajoran nutrients. Tetrovaline A medical drug that renders a person unconscious, but also lowers immune response. Theragen Initially developed by the Klingons as a nerve gas, when diluted with alcohol, this drug can be administered to deaden nerve inputs into the brain, resulting in a calming effect on the patient and a reduction in emotions such as anxiety, stress and aggression particularly in severe cases. Trianoline A medicine used to help patients with percussive injuries in very small doses; 0.4ccs is sufficient for a concussion. Tricordrazine A highly potent stimulant that could be used both to resuscitate and as an anti-seizure medication. However, doses higher than 10ccs were risky. A dose of 25ccs is enough to kill a klingon. Standard starting dosage is 5 milligrams (0.005 ccs). Triglobulin A biogenic substance produced by the Axanar zymuth gland and released into the blood. Triglobulin had certain similarities to Human lymphatic fluid. It is used by some species as an aphrodisiac, though also has been used to produce certain vaccinations and medicines. Trioxin This drug helps to provide oxygen to blood in thin atmospheres, or in cases of respiratory injuries or oxygen deprivation, but only in emergency situations as a stop gap measure. Triptocederine A potent analgi used to aid with end-of-life pain. Another common application of the drug can be to ease the discomfort caused by malfunctioning cybernetic implants.Used to relieve the pain of Yarim-Fel syndrome. Thuludian Crystal Narcotic. Tryptophan-Lysine distillates These are more powerful antibiotics. They add to the effective health of the patient, but at the cost of a slightly Fatigued state that lasts until the treatments end. V Vasokin Used to increase the blood flow. 22% of patients experience side effects including damage to the lungs, kidneys, brain and heart. Venus Drug Makes you look younger. Illegal improvement drug. Veridium Six Poison, no antidote. Vertazine Used to aid recovery from severe dizziness and vertigo. Only one dose should be given every 24 hours, and has the added benefit of no side effects. Voraxna Poison. Dukat sent a bottle of kanar, laced with enough of this to kill a dozen Cardassians, to Ghemor's quarters. The bottle was intercepted; Sisko offered a glass to Dukat and Weyoun. Dukat refused, but Weyoun cheerfully gulped it down. Content from this article may have come partially, or entirely from  Memory Alpha
