  • SPIRONOLACTONE Spironolactone – Oral (Common Brand Name
    SPIRONOLACTONE Spironolactone – oral (common brand name: Aldactone) Uses: Spironolactone is used to treat high blood pressure. Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. It is also used to treat swelling (edema) caused by certain conditions (e.g., congestive heart failure) by removing excess fluid and improving symptoms such as breathing problems. This medication is also used to treat low potassium levels and conditions in which the body is making too much of a natural chemical (aldosterone). Spironolactone is known as a “water pill” (potassium-sparing diuretic). Other uses: This medication has also been used to treat acne in women, female pattern hair loss, and excessive hair growth (hirsutism), especially in women with polycystic ovary disease. Side effects: Drowsiness, lightheadedness, stomach upset, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, or headache may occur. To minimize lightheadedness, get up slowly when rising from a seated or lying position. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor promptly. Tell your doctor immediately if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur; dizziness, increased thirst, change in the amount of urine, mental/mood chances, unusual fatigue/weakness, muscle spasms, menstrual period changes, sexual function problems. This medication may lead to high levels of potassium, especially in patients with kidney problems. If not treated, very high potassium levels can be fatal. Tell your doctor immediately if you notice any of the following unlikely but serious side effects: slow/irregular heartbeat, muscle weakness. Precautions: Before taking spironolactone, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or if you have any other allergies.

    Prescribing Trends of Antihistamines in the Outpatient Setting in Al-Kharj Nehad J. Ahmed1*, Menshawy A. Menshawy2 1Department of Clinical Pharmacy, College of Pharmacy, Prince Sattam Bin Abdulaziz University, Al-Kharj, Saudi Arabia, 2Department of Medicinal chemistry, College of Pharmacy, Prince Sattam Bin Abdulaziz University, Al-Kharj, Saudi Arabia Abstract Aim: This study aims to illustrate the prescribing trends of antihistamines in the outpatient setting in Al-Kharj. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study that included the evaluation of antihistamines in the outpatient setting in a public hospital in Al-Kharj. The data were collected from the pharmacy-based computer system. Results: The total number of prescriptions that included antihistamines was 799. Most of the prescribed ORIGINAL ARTICLE ARTICLE ORIGINAL antihistamines were first-generation sedating antihistamines (chlorphenamine and diphenhydramine) (66.33%). About 63.20% of the prescribed antihistamines included chlorpheniramine followed by cetirizine (19.27%) and loratadine (14.39%). Conclusion: Antihistamines were prescribed commonly in the outpatient setting mainly first-generation sedating antihistamines. It is recommended to increase the awareness of health- care providers about the efficacy and the side effects of antihistamines and to encourage them to use these agents wisely. Key words: Antihistamines, outpatient, prescribing, trends INTRODUCTION In addition, antihistamines have been classified as sedating antihistamines (first-generation antihistamines) and non- ntihistamines are used in the sedating antihistamines (second-generation antihistamines).[4] management of allergic conditions.

  • Cetirizine) – New Drug Approval
    Quzyttir™ (cetirizine) – New drug approval • On October 4, 2019, the FDA approved TerSera Therapeutics’ Quzyttir (cetirizine) injection, for the treatment of acute urticaria in adults and children 6 months of age and older. — Quzyttir is not recommended in pediatric patients less than 6 years of age with impaired renal or hepatic function. • Quzyttir is the first FDA approved intravenous (IV) formulation of cetirizine. Oral formulations of cetirizine are available generically as prescription as well as well over-the-counter (OTC) (eg, Zyrtec®). — Prescription oral cetirizine is approved for perennial allergic rhinitis and chronic urticaria. — Zyrtec and other OTC products are approved for use to temporarily relieve symptoms due to hay fever or other upper respiratory allergies: runny nose, sneezing, itchy and watery eyes, and itching of the nose or throat. • The efficacy of Quzyttir was established in a randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, single-dose study in 262 adult patients with acute urticaria. Patients were treated with Quzyttir or diphenhydramine injection. The primary efficacy endpoint was the change from baseline in patient-rated pruritus score assessed 2 hours post treatment. The study was non-inferiority design with the pre-specified non- inferiority margin of 0.50 for the difference between treatment groups. — The effectiveness of Quzyttir was demonstrated to be non-inferior to the effectiveness of diphenhydramine. The mean change from baseline in patient-rated pruritus score was -1.61 and -1.50 for Quzyttir and diphenhydramine, respectively (adjusted difference: 0.06; 95% CI: - 0.28, 0.40). • The efficacy of Quzyttir for the treatment of acute urticaria down to 6 months of age is based on extrapolation of the efficacy of Quzyttir in adults with acute urticaria and supported by pharmacokinetic data with oral cetirizine hydrochloride in patients 6 months to 17 years of age.

Allergic immune response represents a complex network of cellular events involving numerous immune cells and mediators. It represents the interaction of innate and acquired immune response. The key role in the immune cascade is taken by histamine, a natural component of the body, which in the allergic inflammatory response is releasesd by the mast cells and basophils. The aim of this study was to highlight the role of histamine in allergic immunological events, their effect on Th1 and Th2 subpopulation of lymphocytes and the production of the corresponding cytokines, as well as the role of histamine blockers in the treatment of these conditions. Histamine achieves its effect by binding to the four types of its receptors, which are widely distributed in the body. Histamine blockers block a numerous effects of histamine by binding to these receptors. As a highly selective second-generation antihistamine, cetirizine not only achieves its effects by binding to H1 receptors, but also attenuates numerous events during the inflammatory process.

What is the magnitude of metabolic dysregulation (defined as alterations in fasting glucose, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and triglyceride levels) and alterations in body weight and body mass index associated with short-term (‘acute’) antipsychotic treatment in individuals with schizophrenia? 2. Does baseline physiology (e.g. body weight) and demographics (e.g. age) of patients predict magnitude of antipsychotic-associated metabolic dysregulation? 3. Are alterations in metabolic parameters over time associated with alterations in degree of psychopathology? 1 Searches We plan to search EMBASE, PsycINFO, and MEDLINE from inception using the following terms: 1 (Acepromazine or Acetophenazine or Amisulpride or Aripiprazole or Asenapine or Benperidol or Blonanserin or Bromperidol or Butaperazine or Carpipramine or Chlorproethazine or Chlorpromazine or Chlorprothixene or Clocapramine or Clopenthixol or Clopentixol or Clothiapine or Clotiapine or Clozapine or Cyamemazine or Cyamepromazine or Dixyrazine or Droperidol or Fluanisone or Flupehenazine or Flupenthixol or Flupentixol or Fluphenazine or Fluspirilen or Fluspirilene or Haloperidol or Iloperidone
