    Abdelkader and Kaufman Eye and Vision (2016) 3:31 DOI 10.1186/s40662-016-0065-3 RESEARCH Open Access Clinical outcomes of combined versus separate carbachol and brimonidine drops in correcting presbyopia Almamoun Abdelkader1* and Herbert E. Kaufman2 Abstract Background: To test and compare in a masked fashion the efficacy of using a parasympathomimetic drug (3% carbachol) and an alpha-2 agonist (0.2% brimonidine) in both combined and separate forms to create optically beneficial miosis to pharmacologically improve vision in presbyopia. Methods: A prospective, double-masked, randomized, controlled clinical trial was conducted. Ten naturally emmetropic and presbyopic subjects between 42 and 58 years old with uncorrected distance visual acuity of at least 20/20 in both eyes without additional ocular pathology were eligible for inclusion. All subjects received 3% carbachol and 0.2% brimonidine in both combined and separate forms, 3% carbachol alone and 0.2% brimonidine (control) alone in their non-dominant eye in a crossover manner with one week washout between tests. The subjects’ pupil sizes and both near and distance visual acuities will be evaluated pre- and post-treatment at 1, 2, 4, and 8 h, by a masked examiner at the same room illumination. Results: Statistically significant improvement in mean near visual acuity (NVA) was achieved in all subjects who received combined 3% carbachol and 0.2% brimonidine in the same formula compared with those who received separate forms or carbachol alone or brimonidine alone (P < 0.0001). Conclusion: Based on the data, the combined solution demonstrated greater efficacy than the other solutions that were tested.

TUCKER, JR., M.D. DRUG THERAPY IN ophthalmology, like many specialties in medicine, encompasses the entire spectrum of pharmacology. This is true for any specialty that routinely involves the care of young and old patients, surgical and non-surgical problems, local eye disease (topical or subconjunctival drug administration), and systemic disease which must be treated in order to "cure" the "local" manifestations which frequently present in the eyes (uveitis, optic neurhis, etc.). Few authors (see bibliography) have attempted an introduction to drug therapy oriented specifically for the ophthalmologist. The new resident in ophthalmology often has a vague concept of the importance of this subject, and with that in mind this paper was prepared.

  • The Use of Central Nervous System Active Drugs During Pregnancy

Received: 1 July 2013; in revised form: 10 September 2013 / Accepted: 25 September 2013 / Published: 10 October 2013 Abstract: CNS-active drugs are used relatively often during pregnancy. Use during early pregnancy may increase the risk of a congenital malformation; use during the later part of pregnancy may be associated with preterm birth, intrauterine growth disturbances and neonatal morbidity. There is also a possibility that drug exposure can affect brain development with long-term neuropsychological harm as a result. This paper summarizes the literature on such drugs used during pregnancy: opioids, anticonvulsants, drugs used for Parkinson’s disease, neuroleptics, sedatives and hypnotics, antidepressants, psychostimulants, and some other CNS-active drugs. In addition to an overview of the literature, data from the Swedish Medical Birth Register (1996–2011) are presented. The exposure data are either based on midwife interviews towards the end of the first trimester or on linkage with a prescribed drug register.

  • COMPARISON of the WHO ATC CLASSIFICATION & Ephmra/Intellus Worldwide ANATOMICAL CLASSIFICATION
    COMPARISON OF THE WHO ATC CLASSIFICATION & EphMRA/Intellus Worldwide ANATOMICAL CLASSIFICATION November 2020 Comparison of the WHO ATC Classification and EphMRA / Intellus Worldwide Anatomical Classification The following booklet is designed to improve the understanding of the two classification systems. The development of the two systems had previously taken place separately. EphMRA and WHO are now working together to ensure that there is a convergence of the 2 systems rather than a divergence. In order to better understand the two classification systems, we should pay attention to the way in which substances/products are classified. WHO mainly classifies substances according to the therapeutic or pharmaceutical aspects and in one class only (particular formulations or strengths can be given separate codes, e.g. clonidine in C02A as antihypertensive agent, N02C as anti-migraine product and S01E as ophthalmic product). EphMRA classifies products, mainly according to their indications and use. Therefore, it is possible to find the same compound in several classes, depending on the product, e.g., NAPROXEN tablets can be classified in M1A (antirheumatic), N2B (analgesic) and G2C if indicated for gynaecological conditions only. The purposes of classification are also different: The main purpose of the WHO classification is for international drug utilisation research and for adverse drug reaction monitoring. This classification is recommended by the WHO for use in international drug utilisation research. The EphMRA/Intellus Worldwide classification has a primary objective to satisfy the marketing needs of the pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, a direct comparison is sometimes difficult due to the different nature and purpose of the two systems. The aim of harmonisation is to reach a “full” agreement of all mono substances in a given class as listed in the WHO ATC Index, mainly at third level: whenever this is not possible, or harmonisation of third level is too difficult or makes no sense (e.g.

    Semester II. Pharmacology Laboratory 8 Substances acting on ANS and Antihistamines 1.Pharmacognosy 2.Pharmacodynamics 3.Pharmacography 4. Classification of ANS substances 2. Pharmacodynamics Substances with action on SNV are an important chapter in veterinary therapy. Functional changes that occur in various animal disorders are subject ed to drug remedies based largely on these substances. On the other hand, a series of drugs that have well- defined therapeutic actions, have some side effects that are reflected in the vegetative nervous system, respectively the territories under its influence. The distribution of medicinal substances is divided into two groups: substances with action on cholinergic territories substances with action on the adrenergic territories The parasympathomimetic drug has effects similar to those of acetylcholine, the cholinergic chemical mediator. They may act directly by the substance, or indirectly by the acetylcholine remaining free from blocking acetylcholinesterase (an enzyme that hydrolyzes it). The sympathomimetic drug , act in the same way as adrenaline and noradrenaline, the chemical mediators of the sympathetic system. In each group, we distinguish substances that exert a stimulatory effect and others with an inhibitory effect, which antagonize the action of the former. So: Parasympathomimetic drug - direct - indirect Parasympatholytic drug Sympathomimetic drug - direct - indirect Sympatholytic drug The parasympathomimetic drug has effects similar to those of acetylcholine, the cholinergic
