CERT-Based Explanations
Norethindrone (Antifertility Drug):
Norethindrone is a synthetic progesterone derivative.
Birth control pills generally contain mixtures of synthetic estrogen and progesterone derivatives.
$$\mathrm{Norethindrone}$$ is one of the commonly used antifertility drugs.
Salvarsan (Antibiotic):
Salvarsan, also known as arsphenamine, was developed by Paul Ehrlich as the first effective treatment for syphilis.
It was an important milestone in antibacterial therapy.
$$\mathrm{Salvarsan}$$ is therefore classified as an antibiotic.

Tranquilizers are neurologically active drugs used in the treatment of stress and mental disorders.
$$\mathrm{Meprobamate}$$ is a mild tranquilizer used to relieve tension and anxiety.
Alitame (Artificial Sweetener):
$$\mathrm{Alitame}$$ is a high-potency artificial sweetener.
It is nearly $$2000$$ times sweeter than cane sugar and is more stable than aspartame.
