All Rights Reserved Month/Year of Review: January 2014 Date of Last Review: January 2012 PDL Classes: Beta Blockers Source Document: OSU College of Pharmacy Current Status of PDL Class: Preferred Agents: ACEBUTOLOL HCL, ATENOLOL, CARVEDILOL, LABETALOL HCL, METOPROLOL TARTRATE, NADOLOL, PROPRANOLOL HCL Non-Preferred Agents: BETAXOLOL, BISOPROLOL, METOPROLOL SUCCINATE, NEBIVOLOL (BYSTOLIC®), PENBUTOLOL (LEVABUTOL®), PINDOLOL, TIMOLOL Previous Conclusions and Recommendation: In patients with mild-moderate HF, bisoprolol, carvedilol or metoprolol succinate (ER) reduce mortality. In patients with severe HF, carvedilol or metoprolol succinate (ER) reduce mortality. In patients with recent MI, acebutolol, carvedilol, metoprolol tartrate (IR), propranolol, or timolol reduce mortality. It is important that at least one of these drugs be included in the PDL. All of the β-Blockers reviewed are effective in the treatment of hypertension, but there is no evidence of differences between β-blockers for blood pressure control, survival, or quality of life. All of the β-Blockers reviewed except carteolol reduced anginal attacks in patients in short-term studies that did not allow mortality evaluation. Because of their effectiveness in rate control for atrial fibrillation at least one of either atenolol, bisoprolol, carvedilol, metoprolol succinate (ER), nadolol, pindolol, or propranolol should be included in the PDL. The current evidence does not distinguish a difference among these beneficial β−Blockers that were tested for preventing recurrence and diminishing the severity of migraine headaches: atenolol, bisoprolol, metoprolol tartrate (IR), metoprolol succinate (ER), propranolol, propranolol LA nadolol, or timolol.

  • Guideline for Preoperative Medication Management
    Guideline: Preoperative Medication Management Guideline for Preoperative Medication Management Purpose of Guideline: To provide guidance to physicians, advanced practice providers (APPs), pharmacists, and nurses regarding medication management in the preoperative setting. Background: Appropriate perioperative medication management is essential to ensure positive surgical outcomes and prevent medication misadventures.1 Results from a prospective analysis of 1,025 patients admitted to a general surgical unit concluded that patients on at least one medication for a chronic disease are 2.7 times more likely to experience surgical complications compared with those not taking any medications. As the aging population requires more medication use and the availability of various nonprescription medications continues to increase, so does the risk of polypharmacy and the need for perioperative medication guidance.2 There are no well-designed trials to support evidence-based recommendations for perioperative medication management; however, general principles and best practice approaches are available. General considerations for perioperative medication management include a thorough medication history, understanding of the medication pharmacokinetics and potential for withdrawal symptoms, understanding the risks associated with the surgical procedure and the risks of medication discontinuation based on the intended indication. Clinical judgement must be exercised, especially if medication pharmacokinetics are not predictable or there are significant risks associated with inappropriate medication withdrawal (eg, tolerance) or continuation (eg, postsurgical infection).2 Clinical Assessment: Prior to instructing the patient on preoperative medication management, completion of a thorough medication history is recommended – including all information on prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, “as needed” medications, vitamins, supplements, and herbal medications. Allergies should also be verified and documented.

  • In Vitro Modulation of Cisplatin Accumulation in Human Ovarian Carcinoma Cells by Pharmacologic Alteration of Microtubules
    In vitro modulation of cisplatin accumulation in human ovarian carcinoma cells by pharmacologic alteration of microtubules. R D Christen, … , D R Shalinsky, S B Howell J Clin Invest. 1993;92(1):431-440. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI116585. Research Article We have previously shown that forskolin and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) increased accumulation of cisplatin (DDP) in DDP-sensitive 2008 human ovarian carcinoma cells in proportion to their ability to increase cAMP. Since the major function of cAMP is to activate protein kinase A, it was conjectured that the stimulation of DDP accumulation was mediated by a protein kinase A substrate. We now show that exposure of 2008 cells to forskolin resulted in phosphorylation of a prominent 52-kD membrane protein. Microsequencing of the band demonstrated it to be human beta-tubulin. Similarly, pretreatment of 2008 cells with the microtubule stabilizing drug taxol increased platinum accumulation in a dose-dependent manner. In 11-fold DDP-resistant 2008/C13*5.25 cells, decreased DDP accumulation was associated with enhanced spontaneous formation of microtubule bundles and decreased expression of beta-tubulin and the tubulin-associated p53 antioncogene relative to 2008 cells. 2008/C13*5.25 cells had altered sensitivity to tubulin- binding drugs, being hypersensitive to taxol and cross-resistant to colchicine. We conclude that pharmacologic alterations of tubulin enhance accumulation of DDP, and that the DDP-resistant phenotype in 2008/C13*5.25 cells is associated with tubulin abnormalities.

  • Comparison of Different Alpha-Blocker Combinations in Male Hypertensives with Refractory Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms
    대한남성과학회지:제 29 권 제 3 호 2011년 12월 Korean J Androl. Vol. 29, No. 3, December 2011 http://dx.doi.org/10.5534/kja.2011.29.3.242 Comparison of Different Alpha-blocker Combinations in Male Hypertensives with Refractory Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Keon Cheol Lee1, Jong Gu Kim2, Sung Yong Cho1, Joon Sung Jeon1, In Rae Cho1 Department of Urology, 1Inje University Ilsanpaik Hospital, Goyang, 2Happy Urology Clinic, Ansan, Korea =Abstract= Purpose: We compared the efficacy and safety profiles of dose increase, traditional combination methods, and combining different alpha blockers in hypertensive males with lower urinary tract symptom (LUTS) refractory to an initial dose of 4 mg doxazosin. Materials and Methods: Between 2000 and 2005, 374 male patients with LUTS and hypertension unresponsive to 4 weeks of 4 mg doxazosin were enrolled. The subjects were randomly classified into 3 groups, 8 mg/day of doxazosin (D group), 4 mg of doxazosin plus 0.2 mg/day of tamsulosin (DT group), and 4 mg doxazosin plus 5 mg/day finasteride (DF group). Patients were evaluated based on their International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), quality of life (QOL), uroflowmetry and blood pressure (BP) and adverse events (AEs) at the baseline and 3 and 12 months after treatment. Results: The 269 patients (71.9%) were followed for at least 1 year (D group n=84, DT group n=115, and DF group n=70). The clinical parameters before and after initial 4 mg/day doxazosin were not different among the 3 groups. IPSS improvement after 3 months and maximal flow rate (Qmax) improvement after 3 and 12 months were significantly higher in the D and DT groups than the DF group (p<0.05).
