Recently, Dr. Jouria has been contracted by the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Department of Surgery to develop an e-module training series for trauma patient management. Dr. Jouria is currently authoring an academic textbook on Human Anatomy & Physiology. ABSTRACT The synthetic versions of the male hormone testosterone, also known as anabolic steroids, can play an important role in the treatment of health conditions when used as prescribed by a medical clinician. However, misuse of anabolic steroids occurs when these substances are used solely to improve physical appearance or performance. Because there are some potentially serious physical effects of anabolic steroid use, it is important that anabolic steroids are only used as prescribed and always under a medical clinician’s guidance.

    PRODUCT MONOGRAPH ORCIPRENALINE Orciprenaline Sulphate Syrup House Standard 2 mg/mL 2-Adrenergic Stimulant Bronchodilator AA PHARMA INC. DATE OF PREPARATION: 1165 Creditstone Road, Unit #1 April 10, 2014 Vaughan, Ontario L4K 4N7 Control Number: 172362 1 PRODUCT MONOGRAPH ORCIPRENALINE Orciprenaline Sulfate Syrup House Standard 2 mg/mL THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION 2–Adrenergic Stimulant Bronchodilator ACTIONS AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Orciprenaline sulphate is a bronchodilating agent. The bronchospasm associated with various pulmonary diseases - chronic bronchitis, pulmonary emphysema, bronchial asthma, silicosis, tuberculosis, sarcoidosis and carcinoma of the lung, has been successfully reversed by therapy with orciprenaline sulphate. Orciprenaline sulphate has the following major characteristics: 1) Pharmacologically, the action of orciprenaline sulphate is one of beta stimulation. Receptor sites in the bronchi and bronchioles are more sensitive to the drug than those in the heart and blood vessels, so that the ratio of bronchodilating to cardiovascular effects is favourable. Consequently, it is usually possible clinically to produce good bronchodilation at dosage levels which are unlikely to cause cardiovascular side effects. 2 2) The efficacy of the bronchodilator after both oral and inhalation administration has been demonstrated by pulmonary function studies (spirometry, and by measurement of airways resistance by body plethysmography). 3) Rapid onset of action follows administration of orciprenaline sulphate inhalants, and the effect is usually noted immediately. Following oral administration, the effect is usually noted within 30 minutes. 4) The peak effect of bronchodilator activity following orciprenaline sulphate generally occurs within 60 to 90 minutes, and this activity lasts for 3 to 6 hours. 5) Orciprenaline sulphate taken orally potentiates the action of a bronchodilator inhalant administered 90 minutes later, whereas no additive effect occurs when the drugs are given in reverse order.

  • Effects of Androgenic-Anabolic Steroids on Apolipoproteins and Lipoprotein (A) F Hartgens, G Rietjens, H a Keizer, H Kuipers, B H R Wolffenbuttel
    253 Br J Sports Med: first published as 10.1136/bjsm.2003.000199 on 21 May 2004. Downloaded from ORIGINAL ARTICLE Effects of androgenic-anabolic steroids on apolipoproteins and lipoprotein (a) F Hartgens, G Rietjens, H A Keizer, H Kuipers, B H R Wolffenbuttel ............................................................................................................................... Br J Sports Med 2004;38:253–259. doi: 10.1136/bjsm.2003.000199 Objectives: To investigate the effects of two different regimens of androgenic-anabolic steroid (AAS) administration on serum lipid and lipoproteins, and recovery of these variables after drug cessation, as indicators of the risk for cardiovascular disease in healthy male strength athletes. Methods: In a non-blinded study (study 1) serum lipoproteins and lipids were assessed in 19 subjects who self administered AASs for eight or 14 weeks, and in 16 non-using volunteers. In a randomised double blind, placebo controlled design, the effects of intramuscular administration of nandrolone decanoate (200 mg/week) for eight weeks on the same variables in 16 bodybuilders were studied (study 2). Fasting serum concentrations of total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), HDL2-cholesterol (HDL2- C), HDL3-cholesterol (HDL3-C), apolipoprotein A1 (Apo-A1), apolipoprotein B (Apo-B), and lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) were determined. Results: In study 1 AAS administration led to decreases in serum concentrations of HDL-C (from 1.08 (0.30) to 0.43 (0.22) mmol/l), HDL2-C (from 0.21 (0.18) to 0.05 (0.03) mmol/l), HDL3-C (from 0.87 (0.24) to 0.40 (0.20) mmol/l, and Apo-A1 (from 1.41 (0.27) to 0.71 (0.34) g/l), whereas Apo-B increased from 0.96 (0.13) to 1.32 (0.28) g/l.
