  • Nizatidine) Oral Solution
    Axid® (nizatidine) Oral Solution Description: Nizatidine (USP) is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist. Chemically, it is N-[2-[[[2-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-4-thiazolyl]methyl]thio]ethyl]-N'-methyl-2-nitro-1,1- ethenediamine. The structural formula is as follows: Nizatidine has the empirical formula C12H21N5O2S2 representing a molecular weight of 331.47. It is an off-white to buff crystalline solid that is soluble in water. Nizatidine has a bitter taste and mild sulfur-like odor. Axid® Oral Solution is formulated as a clear, yellow, oral solution with bubble gum flavor and each 1 mL contains 15 mg of nizatidine. Axid® Oral Solution also contains the inactive ingredients methylparaben, propylparaben, glycerin, sodium alginate, purified water, sodium chloride, saccharin sodium, sodium citrate dihydrate, citric acid anhydrous, sucrose, bubble gum flavor, artificial sweetness enhancer, and sodium hydroxide. Clinical Pharmacology in Adults: Nizatidine is a competitive, reversible inhibitor of histamine at the histamine H2-receptors, particularly those in the gastric parietal cells. Antisecretory Activity—1. Effects on Acid Secretion: Nizatidine significantly inhibited nocturnal gastric acid secretion for up to 12 hours. Nizatidine also significantly inhibited gastric acid secretion stimulated by food, caffeine, betazole, and pentagastrin (Table 1). Table 1. Effect of Oral Nizatidine on Gastric Acid Secretion % Inhibition of Gastric Acid Output by Dose (mg) Time After Dose (h) 20-50 75 100 150 300 Nocturnal Up to 10 57 - 73 - 90 Betazole Up to 3 - 93 - 100 99 Pentagon Up to 6 - 25 - 64 67 Meal Up to 4 41 64 - 98 97 Caffeine Up to 3 - 73 - 85 96 2. Effects on Other Gastrointestinal Secretions—Pepsin: Oral administration of 75 to 300 mg of nizatidine did not affect pepsin activity in gastric secretions.

  • Parkinson's Disease Fact Sheet
    Parkinson’s Disease Fact Sheet About Parkinson’s Disease Parkinson’s disease is a progressive, incurable neurological disorder associated with a loss of dopamine-generating cells in the brain. It is primarily associated with progressive loss of motor control, but it results in a complex array of symptoms, including many non-motor symptoms. Parkinson’s impacts an estimated one million people in the United States. Critical Clinical Care Considerations • To avoid serious side effects, Parkinson’s patients need their medications on time, every time — do not skip or postpone doses. • Write down the exact times of day medications are to be administered so that doses are given on the same schedule the patient follows at home. • Do not substitute Parkinson’s medications or stop levodopa therapy abruptly. • Resume medications immediately following procedures, unless vomiting or severely incapacitated. • If an antipsychotic is necessary, use pimavanserin (Nuplazid), quetiapine (Seroquel) or clozapine (Clozaril). • Be alert for symptoms of dysphagia (trouble swallowing) and risk of pneumonia. • Ambulate as soon as medically safe. Patients may require assistance. Common Symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease Motor Non-Motor • Shaking or tremor at rest • Depression • Bradykinesia or freezing (being stuck • Anxiety in place when attempting to walk) • Constipation • Low voice volume or muffled speech • Cognitive decline and dementia • Lack of facial expression • Impulse control disorders • Stiffness or rigidity of the arms, legs • Orthostatic hypotension or

W. Kwong2, Rui-Xia Yuan1,3, Hao Chen4, Chang Xu5, Yi-Pin Wang1, Gong-Li Yang6, Jin-Zhu Yan1, Le Peng1, Xian-Tao Zeng1, Hong Weng1, Jie Luo1 & Yu-Ming Niu1,6 Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and histamine-2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs) are used for gastro- esophageal reflux disease (GERD); however, the clinical evidence for treatment is poor. We evaluated the effectiveness and tolerability of different doses of PPIs,2 H RAs and placebo in adults with GERD. Six online databases were searched through September 1, 2016. All related articles were included and combined with a Bayesian network meta-analysis from randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The GRADE systems were employed to assess the main outcome. Ninety-eight RCTs were identified, which included 45,964 participants. Our analysis indicated that the full/standard dose of esomeprazole at 40 mg per day was the most efficient in healing among nine different dosages of PPIs and2 H RAs. The main efficacy outcome did not change after adjustments for the area, age, level of disease from endoscopy, year of publication, pharmaceutical industry sponsorship, Intention-to-treat (ITT)/per-protocol (PP), withdrawal rate, pre-set select design bias, single blinded and unblinded studies, study origination in China, study arms that included zero events, inconsistency node or discontinued drug were accounted for in the meta-regressions and sensitivity analyses.

Results of a preliminary laboratory analysis have shown the presence of N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), a human carcinogen, in ranitidine. With this DUS, we aim to determine drug utilisation and prescription patterns of medicinal products containing H2-receptor antagonists. These data will give insight on the number of patients using ranitidine and thus potentially at risk of NDMA. In particular we will: 1. Study the prevalence and incidence prescribing of H2-receptor antagonists as a class and by individual drug 2 EMA TENDER – Ranitidine protocol – Final Confidential Version 1.0 – 17th January 2020 2.
