Lozenges are palatable solid unit dosage form administrated in the oral cavity. They meant to be dissolved in mouth or pharynx for its local or systemic effect. Lozenge tablets provide several advantages as pharmaceutical formulations however with some disadvantages. Lozenge as a dosage form can be adopted for drug delivery across buccal route, labial route, gingival route and sublingual route. Multiple drugs can also be incorporated in them for chronic illness treatments. Lozenge enables loading of wide range of active ingredients for oral systemic delivery of drugs. Lozenges are available as over the counter medications in the form of caramel based soft lozenges, hard candy lozenges and compressed tablet lozenges containing drugs for sore throat, mouth infection and as mouth fresheners. The rationale behind the use of medicated lozenges as one of the most favored dosage form for the delivery of antitussive drugs. This review focuses various aspects of lozenge formulation providing an insight to the formulation scientist on novel application of lozenge drug delivery system.

Measurand: Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) D. Type of Test: Detection of MRSA using a selective and differential chromogenic media E. Applicant: bioMérieux, Inc. F. Proprietary and Established Names: chromID™ MRSA Agar G. Regulatory Information: 1. Regulation section: 21 CFR 866.1700 2. Classification: Class II 3. Product code: JSO Culture media, Antimicrobial susceptibility test, excluding Mueller Hinton Agar 1 4. Panel: Microbiology H. Intended Use: 1. Intended use(s): chromID™ MRSA agar is a selective and differential chromogenic medium for the qualitative detection of nasal colonization of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) to aid in the prevention and control of MRSA infections in healthcare settings. The test is performed on anterior nares swab specimens from patients and healthcare workers to screen for MRSA colonization. chromID™ MRSA agar is not intended to diagnose MRSA infection nor to guide or monitor treatment of infection. 2. Indication(s) for use: The chromID™ MRSA agar is not intended to diagnose MRSA infection nor to guide or monitor treatment of infection. 3. Special conditions for use statement(s): Prescription use 4. Special instrument requirements: Not applicable I. Device Description: The chromID™ MRSA agar is translucent and a light tan color. After the plates are inoculated and incubated, colonies growing on the plates will have either a green appearance, which indicates a positive MRSA status or a colorless appearance which indicates a negative MRSA status. The green color is more vivid if the colonies are observed through the agar from the bottom of the plate.

  • Study Protocol
    Study Protocol Proposed methodology to measure the impact of GRIP toolkit materials on antibiotic prescribing for URTIs by primary care physicians The method described here illustrates the process for assessment of one specific symptom of upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), sore throat. This has been selected as the Centor criteria may be used to predict the likelihood of a group A streptococcal bacterial infection in patients complaining of acute sore throat1 while other common URTI symptoms are likely to be due to viral infection. This protocol can be adapted for other URTI symptoms. Using this protocol and analysing the collected data can help understand: • The impact of GRIP toolkit materials on antibiotic prescribing in URTIs • Thether current level of antibiotic use is indicated (e.g. in non-high risk patients) Study arms • Control arm: no access to GRIP toolkit materials (n=tbc) • Test arm: full access to GRIP toolkit materials (n=tbc) Test arm: GRIP URTI toolkit preparation prior to assessment If you are part of the control arm and will not be using the toolkit during this assessment, you do not need to read this section. Please go straight to the patient section below. Preparation and planning • Review current personal and colleague management practices when dealing with URTIs, specifically acute sore throat • Ensure each doctor within the test arm has read and understood the toolkit materials • Identify any differences between current practice versus that advised in the GRIP toolkit Defining use of the GRIP toolkit There are four ways the GRIP toolkit can be used by the test arm.

Mistik, Department of Family Medicine, Erciyes University Medical Faculty, Kayseri 38039, Turkey; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Objective. Viral agents cause the majority of sore throats. However, there is not currently a score to diagnose viral sore throat. The aims of this study were (i) to find the rate of bacterial and viral causes, (ii) to show the seasonal variations and (iii) to form a new scoring system to diagnose viral sore throat. Methods. A throat culture for group A beta haemolytic streptococci (GABHS) and a nasopharyngeal swab to detect 16 respiratory viruses were obtained from each patient. Over a period of 52 weeks, a total of 624 throat cultures and polymerase chain reaction analyses were performed. Logistic regression analysis was performed to find the clinical score. Results. Viral infection was found in 277 patients (44.3%), and GABHS infection was found in 116 patients (18.5%). An infectious cause was found in 356 patients (57.1%). Rhinovirus was the most commonly detected infectious agent overall (highest in November, 34.5%), and the highest GABHS rate was in November (32.7%).

This group of emerging contaminants has recently received scrutiny from various communities because their fate and impact on the aquatic environment are not well understood. Since the challenge of water shortages is becoming a reality worldwide, alternatives for protecting the resource such as recycling are being considered. However, such alternatives create concerns relating to the quality of the water especially where the emerging contaminants are not being monitored. There have been reports of the presence of these PPHCPs in water systems although at low concentration levels of microgram to nanogram per litre. It is known though that even at such low concentrations some groups of PPHCPs such as endocrine disrupting compounds may have an adverse effect on aquatic organisms.
