D011427	Propiophenones	Propiophenone (ethyl phenyl ketone, structural formula C6H5COCH2CH3) and its derivatives. They are commonly used in perfumes and pharmaceuticals.
D003903	Deuterium	The stable isotope of hydrogen. It has one neutron and one proton in the nucleus.	Deuterons,Hydrogen-2,Hydrogen 2
D004053	Diethylpropion	A appetite depressant considered to produce less central nervous system disturbance than most drugs in this therapeutic category. It is also considered to be among the safest for patients with hypertension. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p2290)	Amfepramon,2-Diethylaminopropiophenone,Amfepramone,Anorex,Delgamer,Diethylpropion Hydrochloride,Dietil-retard,Ifa Norex,Lipomin,Maruate,Modératan,Neobes,Nobesine,Phepranon,Propion,Préfamone,Regenon,Regibon,Tenuate,Tepanil,Dietil retard,Dietilretard,Hydrochloride, Diethylpropion,Norex, Ifa
D004809	Ephedrine	A phenethylamine found in EPHEDRA SINICA. PSEUDOEPHEDRINE is an isomer. It is an alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonist that may also enhance release of norepinephrine. It has been used for asthma, heart failure, rhinitis, and urinary incontinence, and for its central nervous system stimulatory effects in the treatment of narcolepsy and depression. It has become less extensively used with the advent of more selective agonists.
