Introduction Introduction About LGC Promochem LGC Promochem is the leading reference materials supplier in Europe. Our relationships with the world’s leading pharmacopeias and their range of Chemical Reference Substances (CRS) and Reference Standards (RS), combined with in-house production of a wide variety of certified reference materials and pharmaceutical impurities, enable us to meet the often exacting needs of our customers. LGC Promochem’s network of offices across Europe and India and experience in reference materials distribution allow us to provide faster delivery, local technical support and assistance with import requirements. LGC Promochem's range of products also includes reference materials for clinical and forensic applications, phytochemicals, environmental analysis, determination of physical properties, and for food and beverage analysis. LGC Promochem is also the exclusive European distributor for ATCC cultures and bioproducts. For more information about our range of services or to receive any of our catalogues, please refer to our website www.lgcpromochem.com or contact your local office. About the catalogue The 2006/2007 edition of the LGC Promochem catalogue ‘Pharmaceutical reference substances and impurities’, replaces the ‘Pharmaceutical reference substances and impurities’ 2005/2006 edition and the three newsletter updates. The information provided in this catalogue as regards compendial articles is based on the ‘official’ pharmacopoeial lists and is correct at the time of print. Original descriptions and spellings used by the producers are retained. In some cases additional information has been included to make the lists more convenient to use. A regularly updated version of this catalogue is available from the LGC Promochem website at www.lgcpromochem.com, where pages can be reviewed and downloaded for printing. Pharmaceutical reference substances Certification The products described in this catalogue include pharmacopeial reference substances for use in pharmaceutical analysis. Pharmacopeial CRSs and RSs should be distinguished from certified reference materials (CRMs), which are produced in conformity with the ISO guides 30 to 35, and supplied with a detailed certification document. Pharmacopeial reference substances are produced for a specific purpose, and the manufacturers follow rigorous protocols to ensure the reference substance is fit for the intended purpose. The ‘certification’ processes follow the basic requirements of the relevant ISO REMCO guides, but are modified by the pharmacopoeias to reflect the particular demands of the associated pharmaceutical monograph. Details are given in the introduction to each section listing the various CRS collections in this catalogue. Shelf Life, storage and expiry dates Pharmacopeial CRSs and RSs should be purchased when required and not stored for a prolonged period. Pack sizes are designed to allow a limited number of replicate analyses, as required by Good Analytical Practice, but the opened pack should not be kept for future use. Please check all individual storage temperature requirements and note that the substances should be kept away from humidity and light (unless otherwise stated). Specific lot numbers or letters are allocated to all pharmacopeial reference substances, but no expiry dates are set. New lots are normally prepared well in advance of the expected "sell-out" of the current lot. When a substance is withdrawn from sale because the lot has depleted a final expiry date is given, by which any material from the outgoing lot held by users must be used. This means that for a period of time both lots are ‘official’. Lot information is provided by USP and EP in their literature and is available from LGC Promochem. If a material is withdrawn by the producer, then all stocks held by the users are no longer valid and have to be destroyed. Should this occur, LGC Promochem will inform all customers who have purchased the withdrawn substance. Please note that such a situation is outside LGC Promochem’s control and products are not refundable. Edition 2006/2007 All your needs for pharmaceutical analysis - email [email protected] 3 Pharmaceutical reference substances Impurity standards Impurities in a pharmaceutical substance can change the effects and side effects of a drug significantly. Therefore, it is important to have an accurate detection of impurities. The pharmaceutical monographs regulate the legal definition, the analysis and the limits of impurities of a given substance. An official range of impurity standards is available from the main pharmacopoeias where a CRS or RS is required in the monograph. Other impurity standards are listed in the ‘pharmaceutical impurities’ section of the catalogue. Controlled substances A number of the pharmaceutical substances, such as narcotics and tranquillisers, described in this catalogue are Controlled Substances in their country of origin and are marked ‘Controlled Substance’ against the product description. The purchase, possession and use of Controlled Substances are subject to national and international regulations designed to limit their abuse. It is the responsibility of the customer to obtain any authorisation necessary to both purchase and possess Controlled Substances, complying with the laws of the importing country, before ordering. Customers wishing to obtain Controlled Substances must contact their LGC Promochem sales office before ordering, and clarify with the sales specialists the relevant national requirements, the associated charges and consequential delivery times. All orders for Controlled Substances must be provided in writing and signed by an authorised person. The orders must be accompanied with the original import permit and/or possession

  • This Fact Sheet Provides Information to Patients with Eczema and Their Carers. About Topical Corticosteroids How to Apply Topic
    This fact sheet provides information to patients with eczema and their carers. About topical corticosteroids You or your child’s doctor has prescribed a topical corticosteroid for the treatment of eczema. For treating eczema, corticosteroids are usually prepared in a cream or ointment and are applied topically (directly onto the skin). Topical corticosteroids work by reducing inflammation and helping to control an over-reactive response of the immune system at the site of eczema. They also tighten blood vessels, making less blood flow to the surface of the skin. Together, these effects help to manage the symptoms of eczema. There is a range of steroids that can be used to treat eczema, each with different strengths (potencies). On the next page, the potencies of some common steroids are shown, as well as the concentration that they are usually used in cream or ointment preparations. Using a moisturiser along with a steroid cream does not reduce the effect of the steroid. There are many misconceptions about the side effects of topical corticosteroids. However these treatments are very safe and patients are encouraged to follow the treatment regimen as advised by their doctor. How to apply topical corticosteroids How often should I apply? How much should I apply? Apply 1–2 times each day to the affected area Enough cream should be used so that the of skin according to your doctor’s instructions. entire affected area is covered. The cream can then be rubbed or massaged into the Once the steroid cream has been applied, inflamed skin. moisturisers can be used straight away if needed.

  • Estroquench™ Hormone Specific Formulation™
    PRODUCT DATA DOUGLAS LABORATORIES® 08/2014 1 EstroQuench™ Hormone Specific Formulation™ DESCRIPTION EstroQuench™ is a Hormone Specific Formulation™ of ingredients that have documented anti-aromatase activity as well as androgenic adaptogens which support the function of endogenous aromatase inhibitors. Collectively these herbs promote minimal production and function of estrogens, while promoting testosterone function, including optimal sexual function in both genders. This formulation is designed to quench excessive production of estrogens and aberrant functions of them while supporting optimal function of androgens by maintaining the health of androgen producing glands.† Hormone Specific Formulation™ provided by Douglas Laboratories® and formulated by Dr. Joseph J Collins is created to support the optimal function of specific hormones through the use of hormone specific adaptogens, hormone specific agonists and hormone specific functional mimetics. This formulation may be used as part of a hormone health program with dietary and nutrient support. In addition, this formulation may be used by clinicians as an adjuvant to support optimal hormone health in patients who have been prescribed bioidentical hormone therapies. FUNCTIONS Aromatase (a cytochrome P450 enzyme {CYP19}) is the enzyme that controls the conversion of androgens to estrogens. More specifically, aromatase is the enzyme responsible for catalyzing the biosynthesis of androstenedione into estrone, and the biosynthesis of testosterone to estradiol. Estrogens include the broad range of aromatized hormones created form androgens. The specific attribute of estrogens that separate them from progestogens, androgens and corticoids is that estrogens are the only aromatized steroid hormones. Estradiol, the most potent endogenous estrogen, is biosynthesized by aromatization from androgens by aromatase (which is also called estrogen synthase).

  • Steroid Use in Prednisone Allergy Abby Shuck, Pharmd Candidate
    Steroid Use in Prednisone Allergy Abby Shuck, PharmD candidate 2015 University of Findlay If a patient has an allergy to prednisone and methylprednisolone, what (if any) other corticosteroid can the patient use to avoid an allergic reaction? Corticosteroids very rarely cause allergic reactions in patients that receive them. Since corticosteroids are typically used to treat severe allergic reactions and anaphylaxis, it seems unlikely that these drugs could actually induce an allergic reaction of their own. However, between 0.5-5% of people have reported any sort of reaction to a corticosteroid that they have received.1 Corticosteroids can cause anything from minor skin irritations to full blown anaphylactic shock. Worsening of allergic symptoms during corticosteroid treatment may not always mean that the patient has failed treatment, although it may appear to be so.2,3 There are essentially four classes of corticosteroids: Class A, hydrocortisone-type, Class B, triamcinolone acetonide type, Class C, betamethasone type, and Class D, hydrocortisone-17-butyrate and clobetasone-17-butyrate type. Major* corticosteroids in Class A include cortisone, hydrocortisone, methylprednisolone, prednisolone, and prednisone. Major* corticosteroids in Class B include budesonide, fluocinolone, and triamcinolone. Major* corticosteroids in Class C include beclomethasone and dexamethasone. Finally, major* corticosteroids in Class D include betamethasone, fluticasone, and mometasone.4,5 Class D was later subdivided into Class D1 and D2 depending on the presence or 5,6 absence of a C16 methyl substitution and/or halogenation on C9 of the steroid B-ring. It is often hard to determine what exactly a patient is allergic to if they experience a reaction to a corticosteroid.
