  • 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.

  • Minimising Blood Stream Infection: Developing New Materials for Intravascular Catheters
    medicines Review Minimising Blood Stream Infection: Developing New Materials for Intravascular Catheters Charnete Casimero , Todd Ruddock, Catherine Hegarty, Robert Barber, Amy Devine and James Davis * School of Engineering, Ulster University, Jordanstown BT37 0QB, Northern Ireland, UK; [email protected] (C.C.); [email protected] (T.R.); [email protected] (C.H.); [email protected] (R.B.); [email protected] (A.D.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44-(0)289-0366-407 Received: 30 July 2020; Accepted: 24 August 2020; Published: 26 August 2020 Abstract: Catheter related blood stream infection is an ever present hazard for those patients requiring venous access and particularly for those requiring long term medication. The implementation of more rigorous care bundles and greater adherence to aseptic techniques have yielded substantial reductions in infection rates but the latter is still far from acceptable and continues to place a heavy burden on patients and healthcare providers. While advances in engineering design and the arrival of functional materials hold considerable promise for the development of a new generation of catheters, many challenges remain. The aim of this review is to identify the issues that presently impact catheter performance and provide a critical evaluation of the design considerations that are emerging in the pursuit of these new catheter systems. Keywords: intravascular catheter; CRBSI; biofilm; CVC; antimicrobial; antifouling 1. Introduction Intravascular catheters are ubiquitous in contemporary care and it has been estimated that 30–80% of hospital patients will have a peripheral venous catheter (PVC) in place at some point during their stay [1–3].

  • General Agreement on Tariffs Andtrade
    RESTRICTED GENERAL AGREEMENT TAR/W/87/Rev.1 16 June 1994 ON TARIFFS AND TRADE Limited Distribution (94-1266) Committee on Tariff Concessions HARMONIZED COMMODITY DESCRIPTION AND CODING SYSTEM (Harmonized System) Classification of INN Substances Revision The following communication has been received from the Nomenclature and Classification Directorate of the Customs Co-operation Council in Brussels. On 25 May 1993, we sent you a list of the INN substances whose classification had been discussed and decided by the Harmonized System Committee. At the time, we informed you that the classification of two substances, clobenoside and meclofenoxate, would be decided later. Furthermore, for some of the chemicals given in that list, one of the contracting parties had entered a reservation and the Harmonized System Committee therefore reconsidered its earlier decision in those cases. I am therefore sending you herewith a revised complete list of the classification decisions of the INN substances. In this revised list, two substances have been added and the classifications of two have been revised as explained below: (a) Addition Classification of clobenoside, (subheading 2940.00) and meclofenoxate (subheading 2922.19). (b) Amendment Etafedrine and moxidentin have now been reclassified in subheadings 2939.40 and 2932.29 respectively. The list of INN substances reproduced hereafter is available only in English.

    Ref. Ares(2019)6843167 - 05/11/2019 31 October 2019 EMA/CVMP/158366/2019 Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use Advice on implementing measures under Article 37(4) of Regulation (EU) 2019/6 on veterinary medicinal products – Criteria for the designation of antimicrobials to be reserved for treatment of certain infections in humans Official address Domenico Scarlattilaan 6 ● 1083 HS Amsterdam ● The Netherlands Address for visits and deliveries Refer to www.ema.europa.eu/how-to-find-us Send us a question Go to www.ema.europa.eu/contact Telephone +31 (0)88 781 6000 An agency of the European Union © European Medicines Agency, 2019. Reproduction is authorised provided the source is acknowledged. Introduction On 6 February 2019, the European Commission sent a request to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for a report on the criteria for the designation of antimicrobials to be reserved for the treatment of certain infections in humans in order to preserve the efficacy of those antimicrobials. The Agency was requested to provide a report by 31 October 2019 containing recommendations to the Commission as to which criteria should be used to determine those antimicrobials to be reserved for treatment of certain infections in humans (this is also referred to as ‘criteria for designating antimicrobials for human use’, ‘restricting antimicrobials to human use’, or ‘reserved for human use only’). The Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) formed an expert group to prepare the scientific report. The group was composed of seven experts selected from the European network of experts, on the basis of recommendations from the national competent authorities, one expert nominated from European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), one expert nominated by European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), one expert with expertise on human infectious diseases, and two Agency staff members with expertise on development of antimicrobial resistance .
