And #2 must surely be ODDWEN, with old being both backwards and opposite.

EDIT: Warfarin is an anticoagulant sold under many, many names, most of which end with 'farin'. Nothing's springing out as super obvious.

I am not a fan of brand names. Generic names all the way!
Also, it's irrelevant to the clue. You don't need to do any pharmacology research for this.

4. Can we coin a verb 'newen' for refresh and add an R for Nerwen? (It isn't askew, though).

I was trying to get the sheepy one to make Nerwen, with ewe for the sheep.

EDIT: Ah! RENEW plus N for the direction, once askew, gives us NERWEN.

3. Is there a Downer called Wilwarin, or have I imagined it?
