Available at: www.effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/reports/final.cfm. ii Preface The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) conducts the Effective Health Care Program as part of its mission to organize knowledge and make it available to inform decisions about health care. As part of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003, Congress directed AHRQ to conduct and support research on the comparative outcomes, clinical effectiveness, and appropriateness of pharmaceuticals, devices, and health care services to meet the needs of Medicare, Medicaid, and the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP). AHRQ has an established network of Evidence-based Practice Centers (EPCs) that produce Evidence Reports/Technology Assessments to assist public- and private-sector organizations in their efforts to improve the quality of health care. The EPCs now lend their expertise to the Effective Health Care Program by conducting Comparative Effectiveness Reviews of medications, devices, and other relevant interventions, including strategies for how these items and services can best be organized, managed, and delivered. Systematic reviews are the building blocks underlying evidence-based practice; they focus attention on the strength and limits of evidence from research studies about the effectiveness and safety of a clinical intervention. In the context of developing recommendations for practice, systematic reviews are useful because they define the strengths and limits of the evidence, clarifying whether assertions about the value of the intervention are based on strong evidence from clinical studies. For more information about systematic reviews, see www.effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/reference/purpose.cfm. AHRQ expects that Comparative Effectiveness Reviews will be helpful to health plans, providers, purchasers, government programs, and the health care system as a whole. In addition, AHRQ is committed to presenting information in different formats so that consumers who make decisions about their own and their family’s health can benefit from the evidence. Transparency and stakeholder input are essential to the Effective Health Care Program. Please visit the Web site (www.effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov) to see draft research questions and reports or to join an e-mail list to learn about new program products and opportunities for input. Comparative Effectiveness Reviews will be updated regularly. iii Acknowledgments We would like to acknowledge with appreciation the members of the Technical Expert Panel for their advice and consultation.

А. Sichkar Industrial Pharmacy Department, National University of Pharmacy, Kharkiv, Ukraine _____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Researches of chemical transformation products of diclofenac sodium and glucosamine hydrochloride at their joint presence have been carried out by means of the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Mechanical mixes of substances were investigated before and after technological operations of humidifying and drying. It has been proven that one medicinal substance influences another. The formation of several reaction products during the chemical interaction between diclofenac sodium and glucosamine hydrochloride has been shown. Key words: diclofenac sodium, glucosamine hydrochloride, chemical transformation products, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Diclofenac sodium is in the first line of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) for the pain relief and reduction of an inflammatory process activity in most diseases of connective tissue and joints over decades. However, along with pronounced therapeutic effect the use of this NSAID is associated with several side effects, including lesions of the gastrointestinal tract and inhibition of the metabolism of articular cartilage [1, 2, 3, 4]. Creation of new combined drugs with NSAIDs and other medicinal substances is one of the major direction of NSAIDs pharmacological properties spectrum spread and reduce their toxicity [5, 6, 7, 8].

  • Medications & Supplements to Avoid Before Procedures
    Medications & Supplements to Avoid Before Procedures Do not ingest any brand of aspirin, or any aspirin-containing medication, any MAO inhibiting, or any serotonin medications, for 14 prior to and 14 days after surgery. Disclose every medication, supplement, ​ ​ etc. With Dr. Rau and your anesthesiologist. Aspirin and aspirin-containing products, as well as some supplements and herbals, may inhibit blood clotting and cause difficulties during and after surgery. If you need an aspirin-free fever reducer and pain reliever, take Tylenol. Also, if you smoke, you must refrain for at least a month prior to a month after your surgery date. Smoking significantly reduces your body’s circulation and vascularity, meaning that your tissues won’t receive all the oxygen needed for proper healing. DIET PILLS, FAT LOSS SUPPLEMENTS AND STACKERS: Please stop taking these pills at least 2 ​ weeks before surgery. Many of these pills contain anticoagulants and can seriously impede your body's ability to clot sufficiently, resulting in hemorrhaging. Many of them also contain ephedra and caffeine, which can affect your anesthetic medications. Remember: if you take antibiotics or if you stop oral contraceptive pills for surgery, use an alternative method of birth control.
