| methyl salicylate | Aromatic methyl ester of salicylic acid, produced synthetically or distilled from Gaultheria procumbens (family Ericaceae) or from Betula lenta (family Betulaceae). Used as a component of liniments, used externally and internally for the treatment of various forms of rheumatismit produces heat when rubbed into the skin (counterirritant). Synonym: checkerberry oil, gaultheria oil, sweet birch oil, wintergreen oil. (05 Mar 2000) |

| physostigmine salicylate | Used by conjunctival instillation to reduce tension in glaucoma, in the treatment of postoperative intestinal atony and urinary retention, in the management of myasthenia gravis, and to counteract excessive doses of tubocurarine; also available as physostigmine sulfate, with the same uses. Synonym: eserine salicylate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| salicylate | <pharmacology> A group of chemical substances with anti-inflammatory properties which includes aspirin, choline salicylate, magnesium salicylate, sodium salicylate and salsalate. (17 Dec 1997) |
| sodium salicylate | <chemical> A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent that is less effective than equal doses of aspirin in relieving pain and reducing fever. However, individuals who are hypersensitive to aspirin may tolerate sodium salicylate. In general, this salicylate produces the same adverse reactions as aspirin, but there is less occult gastrointestinal bleeding. Pharmacological action: non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, cyclooxygenase inhibitors. Chemical name: Benzoic acid, 2-hydroxy-, monosodium salt (12 Dec 1998) |
| theophylline calcium salicylate | A mixture of calcium theophylline and sodium salicylate in molecular proportion; has the same actions and uses as theophylline. (05 Mar 2000) |
| eserine salicylate | Used by conjunctival instillation to reduce tension in glaucoma, in the treatment of postoperative intestinal atony and urinary retention, in the management of myasthenia gravis, and to counteract excessive doses of tubocurarine; also available as physostigmine sulfate, with the same uses. Synonym: eserine salicylate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ethyl salicylate | The salicylic acid ester of ethyl alcohol, with the same action as methyl salicylate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aluminum magnesium silicate | An antacid. Synonym: aluminum magnesium silicate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium magnesium-atpase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of ATP and is activated by millimolar concentrations of either calcium or magnesium. Unlike calcium-transporting atpase it does not require the second divalent cation for its activity, and is not sensitive to orthovanadate. Registry number: EC 3.6.1.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| calcium magnesium dependent endodeoxyribonuclease | <enzyme> Similar in action but different from dnase i Registry number: EC 3.1.21.- Synonym: ca mg dnase, ca(2+)+mg(2+) dnase, calcium-magnesium endonuclease, ca-mg endonuclease (26 Jun 1999) |
| magnesium | <chemical, element> An essential divalent cation. The major role is as the chelated ion in ATP and presumably other triphosphonucleotides. The magnesium ATP complex is the sole biologically active form of ATP. The other essential role of magnesium is as the central ion of chlorophyll. Cellular concentration is less than 5mM. Serum concentration approximately 1mM. Pharmacologic action: Hypomagnesemia can cause refractory ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia. Uses: known hypomagnesemic states - suspect hypomagnesmia in alcoholics, chronic disease states, or others with poor nutrition; treatment of choice for Torsade de Pointes. Dose: 1-2 grams IV push for cardiac arrest, over 1 to 2 minutes for Torsades, and over 5 to 60 minutes for acute myocardial infarction. Potential complications: Transient flushing and diaphoresis, sinus bradycardia, hypotension, hyporeflexia and paralysis with overdose. Abbreviation: Mg (15 Mar 2000) |
| magnesium aluminum silicate | An antacid. Synonym: aluminum magnesium silicate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| magnesium bacteriopheophytinate | <microbiology, plant biology> Varieties of chlorophyll (bacteriochlorophylls a, b, c, d, e and g) found in photosynthetic bacteria and differing from plant chlorophyll in the substituents around the tetrapyrrole nucleus of the molecule and in the absorption spectra. (18 Nov 1997) |
| magnesium benzoate | Has been used in gout and rheumatoid arthritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| magnesium-bicarbonate ATPase | <enzyme> Aspect of EC 3.6.1.3 Registry number: EC 3.6.1.- Synonym: mg-hco3-atpase, atpase, magnesium-bicarbonate (26 Jun 1999) |
