Medicines & Drug Database A–Z

Acetaminophen calms inflammation and blocks chemical pain signals in the nervous system to deliver targeted relief from aches, fever, and stiffness.

Albuterol relaxes the tight muscular bands surrounding constricted airways in your lungs, opening air passages within minutes to restore easy breathing during asthma or COPD flare-ups.

Allopurinol works at the cellular level to correct underlying biochemical imbalances, reduce clinical symptoms, and support overall health.

Alprazolam works at the cellular level to correct underlying biochemical imbalances, reduce clinical symptoms, and support overall health.

Amlodipine relaxes and widens tight arterial blood vessels by regulating calcium movement into muscle cells, lowering blood pressure and relieving chest angina.

Amoxicillin destroys bacteria by sabotaging their ability to construct protective cell walls. As bacteria divide, their cell walls weaken and pop under fluid pressure, curing the bacterial infection.

This medicine combines two active agents that work together as a powerful antibacterial team: Amoxicillin attacks and breaks down the bacterial cell wall, causing bacteria to rupture and die. Potassium Clavulanate acts as an enzyme shield, disarming the chemical weapons (beta-lactamase enzymes) that resistant bacteria produce to destroy antibiotics. By neutralizing bacterial resistance, the combination cures deep and persistent infections.

At low doses, Aspirin permanently deactivates the sticky chemical signals inside platelets, keeping blood flowing smoothly and preventing heart attacks and ischemic strokes.

Atenolol relaxes tight blood vessels and supports regular cardiac pumping, keeping blood pressure within a healthy range and protecting heart health.

Atorvastatin shuts down the liver enzyme that manufactures bad LDL cholesterol, prompting the liver to clear existing cholesterol out of the bloodstream, preventing arterial plaques and cardiovascular events.

Azithromycin stops bacteria from growing and multiplying by jamming their protein-building machinery. Without essential proteins, bacteria cannot survive.
