    Avoid the Stop and Go of BPH Start and Stay on RAPAFLO® for BPH Symptom Relief Using RAPAFLO® RAPAFLO® is available only by prescription and is approved to treat male urinary symptoms due to BPH, also called an enlarged prostate. RAPAFLO® should not be used to treat high blood pressure. Important Safety Information Who should not take RAPAFLO® (silodosin) capsules? Do not take RAPAFLO® if you: • have certain kidney problems. • have certain liver problems. Please see additional Important Safety Information throughout this brochure and accompanying full Prescribing Information in pocket. Have BPH symptoms? What they may mean Enlarged prostate— uncomfortable but not uncommon Your doctor has diagnosed you with having BPH, benign prostatic hyperplasia, also known as an enlarged prostate. As men age, having BPH is not unusual. In fact, BPH is the most common prostate problem for men over 50. It affects about 50% of men aged 51-60 and up to 90% of men over 80. The prostate is about But it can grow to the size of a walnut the size of a baseball. in younger men. BLADDER The prostate is located below the bladder and surrounds the urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder. BPH symptoms occur when the “smooth” muscle of the prostate squeezes the urethra. This, in turn, can affect your bladder URETHRA control. Unfortunately, there is little you can do PROSTATE to avoid BPH. 2 Is BPH linked to prostate cancer? No. While many men share this belief, BPH is not linked to prostate cancer, and men with BPH are not more likely to get prostate cancer.

  • Treatment Options for Motor and Non-Motor Symptoms of Parkinson’S Disease
    biomolecules Review Treatment Options for Motor and Non-Motor Symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease Frank C. Church Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, The University of North Carolina School of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) usually presents in older adults and typically has both motor and non-motor dysfunctions. PD is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder resulting from dopamin- ergic neuronal cell loss in the mid-brain substantia nigra pars compacta region. Outlined here is an integrative medicine and health strategy that highlights five treatment options for people with Parkinson’s (PwP): rehabilitate, therapy, restorative, maintenance, and surgery. Rehabilitating begins following the diagnosis and throughout any additional treatment processes, especially vis-à-vis consulting with physical, occupational, and/or speech pathology therapist(s). Therapy uses daily administration of either the dopamine precursor levodopa (with carbidopa) or a dopamine ago- nist, compounds that preserve residual dopamine, and other specific motor/non-motor-related compounds. Restorative uses strenuous aerobic exercise programs that can be neuroprotective. Maintenance uses complementary and alternative medicine substances that potentially support and protect the brain microenvironment. Finally, surgery, including deep brain stimulation, is pursued when PwP fail to respond positively to other treatment options. There is currently no cure for PD. In conclusion, the best strategy for treating PD is to hope to slow disorder progression and strive to achieve stability with neuroprotection. The ultimate goal of any management program is to improve the quality-of-life for a person with Parkinson’s disease.

  • 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.

Silodosin is a prescription medication that acts as an alpha-adrenergic blockers used in the treatment for men with benign prostatic hyperplasia, presently commercially available and marketed as Rapaflo in USA and Rapilif, Silodal in other countries worldwide. Drug showed linearity in the concentration range of 0.502 ng/ml to 207.376 ng/ml for Silodosin and 4.121 ng/ml to 302.836 ng/ml for Silodosin β-D-Glucuronide with correlation coefficient consistently greater than 0.99 for Silodosin and Silodosin β-D-Glucuronide. Mass parameters, 496.2/261.0 and 672.2/479.3/261.2 were chosen for analysis by Solid phase extraction method. Different validation parameters to be considered are Accuracy, Precision, Repeatability, Intermediate Precision, Specificity, Detection Limit, Quantitation Limit, and Linearity Range. The results were found to be acceptable as per the guidelines of International Conference on Harmonization (ICH).

  • Silodosin I-PSS Were 66.8% with Silodosin and 65.4% with Tamsulosin
    VOLUME 41 : NUMBER 4 : AUGUST 2018 NEW DRUGS who had an improvement of at least 25% in the Silodosin I-PSS were 66.8% with silodosin and 65.4% with tamsulosin. These results were significantly better Approved indication: benign prostatic hypertrophy than the 50.8% response rate to placebo.

  • Alpha Blockers
    Alfuzosin, Silodosin, Tamsulosin/Clinically Uroselective Alpha1-Adrenergic Blockers: Recommendations for Use October 2010 VA Pharmacy Benefits Management Services, Medical Advisory Panel, and VISN Pharmacist Executives The product information should be consulted for detailed prescribing information. Issue Is there a preference to using a clinically uroselective alpha1-adrenergic blocker over a non-uroselective alpha1-adrenergic blocker for the management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Background Of the available non-uroselective alpha1-adrenergic blockers, doxazosin, prazosin, and terazosin are listed on the VA National Formulary (VANF); alfuzosin, silodosin, and tamsulosin are considered clinically uroselective alpha1-blockers , of which tamsulosin is available on the VANF for use in patients with LUTS due to BPH. Summary of Clinical Evidence1-6 All alpha1-blockers have been shown to improve LUTS associated with BPH (recommended doses for BPH are doxazosin 4 to 8mg once daily, prazosin 2mg twice daily, terazosin 5 to 10mg once daily; lower doses have also been effective) although the American Urological Association (AUA) guidelines for BPH state there are insufficient data to support the use of prazosin in BPH. There is no evidence that alfuzosin, silodosin, or tamsulosin provide benefit in patients who have not responded to an adequate trial with a non-uroselective alpha1-blocker. It is unknown whether the clinically uroselective alpha1-blockers offer an advantage in patients who are at risk for falls. Based on meta-analyses by the AUA, alfuzosin and tamsulosin were found to have significantly less dizziness than terazosin but not doxazosin. In addition, the change in blood pressure with doxazosin or terazosin has been found to be clinically insignificant in patients with BPH who are either normotensive or have hypertension (HTN) that is well-controlled with pharmacologic agents.
