  • Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome Agents
    Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome Agents Therapeutic Class Overview/Summary: This review will focus on agents used for the treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).1-5 IBS is a gastrointestinal syndrome characterized primarily by non-specific chronic abdominal pain, usually described as a cramp-like sensation, and abnormal bowel habits, either constipation or diarrhea, in which there is no organic cause. Other common gastrointestinal symptoms may include gastroesophageal reflux, dysphagia, early satiety, intermittent dyspepsia and nausea. Patients may also experience a wide range of non-gastrointestinal symptoms. Some notable examples include sexual dysfunction, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, increased urinary frequency/urgency and fibromyalgia-like symptoms.6 IBS is defined by one of four subtypes. IBS with constipation (IBS-C) is the presence of hard or lumpy stools with ≥25% of bowel movements and loose or watery stools with <25% of bowel movements. When IBS is associated with diarrhea (IBS-D) loose or watery stools are present with ≥25% of bowel movements and hard or lumpy stools are present with <25% of bowel movements. Mixed IBS (IBS-M) is defined as the presence of hard or lumpy stools with ≥25% and loose or water stools with ≥25% of bowel movements. Final subtype, or unsubtyped, is all other cases of IBS that do not fall into the other classes. Pharmacological therapy for IBS depends on subtype.7 While several over-the-counter or off-label prescription agents are used for the treatment of IBS, there are currently only two agents approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of IBS-C and three agents approved by the FDA for IBS-D.

  • Prophylactic Antiemetic Therapy with Ondansetron, Granisetron and Metoclopramide in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Under GA
    JK SCIENCE ORIGINAL ARTICLE Prophylactic Antiemetic Therapy with Ondansetron, Granisetron and Metoclopramide in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Under GA Vishal Gupta, Renu Wakhloo, Anjali Mehta, Satya Dev Gupta Abstract The aim of the present study was to compare the antiemetic effect of intravenous Granisetron, Ondansetron & Metoclopramide in a randomized blinded study for prophylaxis of post operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia. 60 patients (ASA I & II) undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia were randomly allocated into three equal groups (n=20). Emetic episodes in first 24 hours were recorded and compared in different study groups. Results were analyzed. Minimal emetic episodes were observed in early post-operative period (1-12hrs) in patients who had received intravenous granisetron in comparison to ondansetron and metoclopramide. However, after 12 hours emesis free periods were statistically insignificant between group A and B while patients in group C had no antiemetic effect. Keywords Post Operative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV), Granisetron, Ondensetron, Metoclopramide Introduction The most common and distressing symptoms, which vascular anastomoses and increased intracranial follow anaesthesia and surgery, are pain and emesis. The pressure(4). The anaesthetic consequences are aspiration syndrome of nausea, retching and vomiting is known as pneumonitis and discomfort in recovery. For institutions 'sickness' and each part of it can be distinguished as a there is increased financial burden because of increased separate entity (1). PONV (post operative nausea and nursing care, delayed discharge from Phase I and II vomiting) has been characterized as big 'little problem(2) recovery units and unexpected admissions. Hence, and has been a common complication for both in patients prophylactic antiemetic therapy is needed for all these and out patients undergoing virtually all types of surgical patients.

ABSTRACT Background: Post operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common problem and distressing symptom in surgical patient population. General anaesthesia with inhalational agents is associated with an average PONV incidence of 20- 30 % in surgical patients. PONV is difficult to treat and needs multiple drugs and combination of drugs. Granisetron and Ondansetron are among the commonly used 5HT3 antagonists and used in combination with dexamethasone for prophylaxis against PONV. The aim of the study was to compare the efficacy of combination of antiemetics- Ondansetron 4mg+Dexamethasone 8mg and Granisetron 1mg+Dexamethasone 8mg in prevention of post operative nausea and vomiting. Methods: 75 patients of ASA 1 and 2 were randomly allocated to three groups-Group 1 (n=25) received Ondansetron 4mg+Dexamethasone 8mg; Group 2 (n=25)-received Granisetron 1mg+Dexamethasone 8mg; Group 3-received saline with dexamethasone 8mg.

  • IBS Treatment
    TREATMENTS OF IBS Douglas A. Drossman, MD Co-Director UNC Center for Functional GI & Motility Disorders INTRODUCTION In recent years, there has been increased interest by physicians and the pharmaceutical industry regarding newer treatments for IBS. Before discussing these new treatments, it is important to consider the overall management strategy in IBS. This is necessary because patients with IBS exhibit a wide spectrum of symptoms of varying frequencies and degrees of severity. There is no one ideal treatment for IBS, and the newer medications may work best for only a subset of patients having this disorder. Therefore, the clinician must first apply certain general management approaches and, following this, treatment choices will depend on the nature (i.e., predominant diarrhea, constipation, or bloating, etc.) and severity (mild, moderate, severe) of the symptoms. The symptoms of IBS may have any of several underlying causes. These can include: (a) abnormal motility (uncoordinated or excessive contractions that can lead to diarrhea, constipation, bloating) (b) visceral hypersensitivity (lower pain threshold of the nerves that can produce abdominal discomfort or pain) resulting from the abnormal motility, stress or infection (c) dysfunction of the brain's ability to regulate these visceral (intestinal) activities. Treatments will vary depending on which of these possibilities are occurring. In general, milder symptoms relate primarily to abnormal motility, often in response to food, activity or stress, and/or visceral hypersensitivity. They are commonly treated symptomatically with pharmacological agents directed at the gut. However, more severe symptoms often relate to dysfunction of the brain-gut regulatory system with associated psychosocial effects, and psychological or behavioral treatments and antidepressants are frequently helpful.

  • Different Role of CA1 5HT3 Serotonin Receptors on Memory $FTXLVLWLRQ'H¿FLW,QGXFHGE\7RWDO 76' DQG5(06OHHS 'HSULYDWLRQ 56'
    Z. Eydipour, G. Vaezi, M. Nasehi, et al. Original Article Different Role of CA1 5HT3 Serotonin Receptors on Memory $FTXLVLWLRQ'H¿FLW,QGXFHGE\7RWDO 76' DQG5(06OHHS 'HSULYDWLRQ 56' Zainab Eydipour PhD1, Gholamhassan Vaezi PhD1, Mohammad Nasehi PhDƔ, Seyed-Ali Haeri-Rouhani PhD3, Mohammad-Reza Zarrindast PhDƔ Abstract Background: Serotonin receptors such as 5-HT3 plays critical role in regulation of sleep, ZDNH cycle and cognitive process. Thus, we investigated the role of CA1 5HT3 serotonin receptors in memory acquisition GH¿FLW induced by total sleep deprivation (TSD; for 24 hour) and REM sleep deprivation (RSD; for 24 hour). Pain perception and locomotor activity were also assessed as factors that may affect the memory process. Methods: 0RGL¿HG water box and multi-platform apparatus were used to induce TSD or RSD, respectively. Passive avoidance, hot plate and open ¿HOG devices were used for assessment of memory acquisition, pain and locomotor activity, respectively. Results: Totally, 152 male Wistar rats were used in the study. Pre-training, intra-CA1 injection of 5-HT3 receptor agonist Chlorophenylbiguanide (Mchl; 0.01 and 0.001 μg/rat; P < 0.001) and antagonist Y-25130 (0.1 μg/rat; P < 0.001) reduced memory acquisition and did not alter pain response, while higher dose of both drugs increased locomotor activity in normal rats. Both TSD and RSD reduced memory acquisition (P < 0.001) and did not alter locomotor activity, while TSD (P < 0.001) but not RSD induced analgesia effect. The amnesia induced by TSD was restored by subthreshold dose of Y25130 (0.001 μg/rat; P < 0.001) but not Mchl (0.0001 μg/rat), while both drugs reversed TSD-induced analgesia effect (P < 0.01 for Mchl and P < 0.05 for Y25130), and Y25130 increased locomotor activity in TSD rats (P < 0.05).
