  • 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.

  • Therapeutic Class Overview Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Agents
    Therapeutic Class Overview Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Agents INTRODUCTION Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a histologic diagnosis that refers to the proliferation of smooth muscle and epithelial cells of the prostate. A different but related term is benign prostatic enlargement, which is used when the prostate has an increased size (McVary et al 2011). BPH causes bladder outlet obstruction that leads to lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The obstruction is caused by 2 main factors: ○ A static, structural component due to the bulk of the enlarged prostate impinging upon the urethra ○ A dynamic, reversible component due to the tension of smooth muscle in the prostate (McVary et al 2011). LUTS include storage and voiding symptoms (Cunningham et al 2017a, McVary et al 2011). ○ Storage symptoms may include increased frequency of daytime urination, nocturia, urgency, and urinary incontinence. ○ Voiding symptoms may include a slow urinary stream, splitting or spraying of the urinary stream, intermittent urinary stream, hesitancy, straining to void, and terminal dribbling. The exact etiology of BPH is unknown (McVary et al 2011). Increased age is a major risk factor; the prevalence of BPH is 8% in men 31 to 40 years of age, 40 to 50% in men 51 to 60 years of age, and over 80% in men older than 80 years of age (Cunningham et al 2017b). The primary goals of treatment are to alleviate bothersome LUTS secondary to prostate enlargement, to alter the disease progression, and to prevent complications associated with BPH and LUTS (McVary et al 2011). Current treatment options include watchful waiting, surgical interventions, and pharmacological therapies (McVary et al 2011).

  • 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.

Inactive Ingredients 1 mg tablet: corn starch, lactose, magnesium stearate, povidone and talc. 2 mg tablet: corn starch, FD&C Yellow No. 6, lactose, magnesium stearate, povidone and talc. 5 mg tablet: corn starch, iron oxide, lactose, magnesium stearate, povidone and talc. 10 mg tablet: corn starch, D&C Yellow No. 10, FD&C Blue No. 2, lactose, magnesium stearate, povidone and talc. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Pharmacodynamics A. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) The symptoms associated with BPH are related to bladder outlet obstruction, which is comprised of two underlying components: a static component and a dynamic component. The static component is a consequence of an increase in prostate size. Over time, the prostate will continue to enlarge. However, clinical studies have demonstrated that the size of the prostate does not correlate with the severity of BPH symptoms or the degree of urinary obstruction.1 The dynamic component is a function of an increase in smooth muscle tone in the prostate and bladder neck, leading to constriction of the bladder outlet.

  • Comparison of Different Alpha-Blocker Combinations in Male Hypertensives with Refractory Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms
    대한남성과학회지:제 29 권 제 3 호 2011년 12월 Korean J Androl. Vol. 29, No. 3, December 2011 http://dx.doi.org/10.5534/kja.2011.29.3.242 Comparison of Different Alpha-blocker Combinations in Male Hypertensives with Refractory Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Keon Cheol Lee1, Jong Gu Kim2, Sung Yong Cho1, Joon Sung Jeon1, In Rae Cho1 Department of Urology, 1Inje University Ilsanpaik Hospital, Goyang, 2Happy Urology Clinic, Ansan, Korea =Abstract= Purpose: We compared the efficacy and safety profiles of dose increase, traditional combination methods, and combining different alpha blockers in hypertensive males with lower urinary tract symptom (LUTS) refractory to an initial dose of 4 mg doxazosin. Materials and Methods: Between 2000 and 2005, 374 male patients with LUTS and hypertension unresponsive to 4 weeks of 4 mg doxazosin were enrolled. The subjects were randomly classified into 3 groups, 8 mg/day of doxazosin (D group), 4 mg of doxazosin plus 0.2 mg/day of tamsulosin (DT group), and 4 mg doxazosin plus 5 mg/day finasteride (DF group). Patients were evaluated based on their International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), quality of life (QOL), uroflowmetry and blood pressure (BP) and adverse events (AEs) at the baseline and 3 and 12 months after treatment. Results: The 269 patients (71.9%) were followed for at least 1 year (D group n=84, DT group n=115, and DF group n=70). The clinical parameters before and after initial 4 mg/day doxazosin were not different among the 3 groups. IPSS improvement after 3 months and maximal flow rate (Qmax) improvement after 3 and 12 months were significantly higher in the D and DT groups than the DF group (p<0.05).
