Sporotrichosis is a chronic granulomatous mycotic infection caused by Sporothrix schenckii, a common saprophyte of soil, decaying wood, hay, and sphagnum moss, that is endemic in tropical/subtropical areas. The recent phylogenetic studies have delineated the geographic distribution of multiple distinct Sporothrix species causing sporotrichosis. It characteristically involves the skin and subcutaneous tissue following traumatic inoculation of the pathogen. After a variable incubation period, progressively enlarging papulo-nodule at the inoculation site develops that may ulcerate (fixed cutaneous sporotrichosis) or multiple nodules appear proximally along lymphatics (lymphocutaneous sporotrichosis). Osteoarticular sporotrichosis or primary pulmonary sporotrichosis are rare and occur from direct inoculation or inhalation of conidia, respectively. Disseminated cutaneous sporotrichosis or involvement of multiple visceral organs, particularly the central nervous system, occurs most commonly in persons with immunosuppression. Saturated solution of potassium iodide remains a first line treatment choice for uncomplicated cutaneous sporotrichosis in resource poor countries but itraconazole is currently used/recommended for the treatment of all forms of sporotrichosis.

  • National OTC Medicines List
    National OTC Medicines List ‐ DraŌ 01 DRAFT National OTC Medicines List Draft 01 Ministry of Public Health of Lebanon This list was prepared under the guidance of His Excellency Minister Waêl Abou Faour andDRAFT the supervision of the Director General Dr. Walid Ammar. Editors Rita KARAM, Pharm D. PhD. Myriam WATFA, Pharm D Ghassan HAMADEH, MD.CPE FOREWORD According to the French National Agency for Medicines and Health Products Safety (ANSM), Over-the-counter (OTC) drugs are medicines that are accessible to patients in pharmacies, based on criteria set to safeguard patients’ safety. Due to their therapeutic class, these medicines could be dispensed without physician’s intervention for diagnostic, treatment initiation or maintenance purposes. Moreover, their dosage, treatment period and Package Insert Leaflet should be suitable for OTC classification. The packaging size should be in accordance with the dosage and treatment period. According to ArticleDRAFT 43 of the Law No.367 issued in 1994 related to the pharmacy practice, and the amendment of Articles 46 and 47 by Law No.91 issued in 2010, pharmacists do not have the right to dispense any medicine that is not requested by a unified prescription, unless the medicine is mentioned in a list which is established by pharmacists and physicians’ syndicates. In this regard, the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) developed the National OTC Medicines List, and presentedit in a scientific, objective, reliable, and accessible listing. The OTC List was developed by a team of pharmacists and physicians from the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH). In order to ensure a safe and effective self- medicationat the pharmacy level, several pharmaceutical categories (e.g.

  • Preclinical Pharmacological Profile of Eberconazole: a Review and Update
    [Downloaded free from http://www.mjmsr.net on Tuesday, August 26, 2014, IP: 218.241.189.21] || Click here to download free Android application for this journal REVIEW ARTICLE Preclinical pharmacological profile of Eberconazole: A review and update Latha Subramanya Moodahadu, Ashis Patnaik, Vakati Venkat Arvind, Ranjit Madhukar Bhide1, Kavitha Katta2, Binny Krishnankutty3, Shantala Bellary ABSTRACT Eberconazole is a broad-spectrum imidazole antifungal agent used as a topical preparation in the management of cutaneous mycoses. In vitro studies have shown that eberconazole is effective against dermatophytes, candidiasis, yeasts (including those which are triazole resistant) and Pityriasis versicolor. It inhibits fungal lanosterol 14α-demethylase, thereby inhibiting ergosterol synthesis leading to inhibition of fungal growth. In addition to its antifungal activity, it is also effective against Gram-positive bacteria, a property that is useful clinically. It also possesses anti-inflammatory property thus making it a suitable agent in the clinical management of inflamed cutaneous mycoses. Topical application of eberconazole was well tolerated in preclinical studies without any report of delayed hypersensitivity or photosensitivity reactions. There were no phototoxic effects. There was no significant systemic absorption. Animal toxicity studies have shown that it is safe, and the No Observed Effect Level was 2 ml/kg body weight in tested animals. It was not mutagenic and shared similar cytotoxicity profile with other imidazole antifungal products studied. Penetration studies using synthetic membranes revealed that eberconazole intrasets showed less variation as compared to clotrimazole and terbinafine intrasets. Overall amount of eberconazole released was more compared to comparators. In vitro and preclinical studies have demonstrated better therapeutic efficacy with eberconazole than clotrimazole and ketoconazole.

A number of constraints including misdiagnosis and partially effective treatments lead to these high fatality rates. The unmet medical need is for rapidly acting, highly potent new drugs to reduce these alarming mortality rates. Herein, we report the discovery of new drugs as potential anti-amoebic agents. We used the CellTiter-Glo 2.0 high-throughput screening methods to screen the Medicines for Malaria Ventures (MMV) Pandemic Response Box in a search for new active chemical scaffolds. Initially, we screened the library as a single-point assay at 10 and 1 µM.

  • Paradigm Shift in the Management of Topical Tinea Infections Dr Hardik Pathak
    Review Article Luliconazole: Paradigm Shift in the Management of Topical Tinea Infections Dr Hardik Pathak Abstract Luliconazole is an imidazole topical antifungal agent with a unique structure. Pre-clinical studies have dem- onstrated excellent activity against dermatophytes. Although luliconazole belongs to the azole group, it has strong antifungal activities against Trichophyton spp. This may be attributed to a combination of strong in vi- tro antifungal activity and favourable pharmaco kinetic properties in the skin. Clinical trials have demonstrat- ed its superiority over placebo in dermatophytosis, and performed better than terbinafine. The frequency of application (once daily) and duration of treatment (one week for tinea corporis/cruris and 2 weeks for inter- digital tinea pedis) was favourable when compared to other topical regimens in treating tinea pedis. Such regimens include 2–4 weeks of twice-daily treatment with econazole, up to 4 weeks of twice-daily treatment with sertaconazole, 1–2 weeks of twice-daily treatment with terbinafine, 4 weeks of once-daily application of naftifine and 4–6 weeks of once-daily treatment with amorolfine. Luliconazole 1% cream was approved in Japan in 2005 for the treatment of tinea infections. Recently, the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) approved luliconazole for interdigital tinea pedis, tinea cruris, and tinea corporis treatment.

ABSTRACT Background: Dermatophytic infections are the most prevalent fungal infections, which affect majority of the global population. Indian climate, especially the hot and humid conditions contribute majorly to dermatophytosis. Itraconazole is an orally active triazole antifungal drug, which has demonstrated a broad spectrum of activity and a favourable pharmacokinetic profile. Itraconazole at an appropriate dosage and duration schedule has been reported to be an effective antifungal drug and has achieved optimal results. Methods: The present survey aimed at evaluating the efficacy of the novel itraconazole formulation, I-Tyza 100 [itraconazole 100 mg (Abbott health care pvt ltd)] with multi-particulate in solid dispersion (MPSD) technology in patients with tinea infections. The data collection was based on the proportion of patients presenting in the clinics for tinea infections, the choice and duration of therapy, real life efficacy of the drug, and for understanding the overall antifungal therapy in dermatomycosis.
