An in-patient hospital stay must be verified by reviewing the member’s hospital discharge order. Then, the pharmacy may override the non-preferred status with a Medical Certification Code = 2 and a PA Type Code= 6. 27 Oxycodone ER: Effective April 16, 2006 only the ENDO Brand (NDC# 60951) of oxycodone ER will be preferred. 28 After 30 days only the generic will be preferred. NEW DRUG REVIEW PROCESS: See Page 2. PDL IMPLEMENTATION DATE 01-15-05 Iowa Medicaid Preferred Drug List (PDL) New Drug Process 1). Therapeutic classes of drugs already reviewed by the Pharmaceutical and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee · New drug entities (including new generics), and new drug product dosage forms of existing drug entities) in therapeutic classes already reviewed by the P&T Committee will be identified weekly and immediately be coded as "Non-preferred-Prior Authorization required" until presented at the next quarterly scheduled P&T Committee meeting. These prior authorization restrictions will continue through the review process, including while committee recommendations are being made, and lasting until DHS makes a final determination. 2). Therapeutic classes of drugs not yet reviewed by the Pharmaceutical and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee · New drug entities in therapeutic classes not yet reviewed by the P&T Committee will remain payable, in effect preferred by default, until the therapeutic class is discussed. Once this review occurs for the class, the non- preferred default policy will apply to subsequent new drug entries. 3). Exceptions to the Non-preferred default policy for new PDL drugs There are two major potential exceptions to the non-preferred default policy for new PDL drugs: A). If a new medication is classified as a priority drug by the FDA, the State may indicate that such a drug is preferred, until the drug is reviewed by the P&T Committee at the nearest scheduled meeting. B). The State may decide to designate a new drug as "draft preferred" and provide immediate access and increased therapeutic choice to physicians until the drug is reviewed by the P&T Committee at the nearest scheduled meeting if: - a new drug is therapeutically equivalent or superior to existing preferred or non-preferred choices, and - is as safe or safer than existing preferred or non-preferred choices, and - the net cost, adjusted for all rebates, is less expensive than all existing preferred choices. 4). Existing PDL Drugs · Although the State discourages supplemental rebate offers on existing PDL drugs between annual bidding periods, it may entertain such bids and may accept them if they are determined to represent significant additional savings or if they would replace a delinquent manufacturer's product or a preferred drug pulled from the marketplace or significantly restricted by the FDA. This interim preferred status will remain in effect until the drug is reviewed by the P&T Committee at the next scheduled meeting. Supplemental rebates will only be invoiced for approved drugs under contract. Draft preferred drugs with supplemental rebates will not be invoiced until approved by the Committee and accepted by the State. At that time, the supplemental rebates will be invoiced back to the effective date of the agreement, which is the date the drug began to benefit from preferred status.

  • Pharmacotherapy of Impaired Mucociliary Clearance in Non-CF Pediatric Lung Disease
    Pediatric Pulmonology 42:989–1001 (2007) State of the Art Pharmacotherapy of Impaired Mucociliary Clearance in Non-CF Pediatric Lung Disease. A Review of the Literature 1 1 1,2 Ruben Boogaard, MD, * Johan C. de Jongste, MD, PhD, and Peter J.F.M. Merkus, MD, PhD Summary. Mucoactive agents are used to treat a variety of lung diseases involving impaired mucociliary clearance or mucus hypersecretion. The mucoactive agents studied most frequently are N-acetylcysteine (NAC), recombinant human DNase (rhDNase), and hypertonic saline. Studies on the efficacy of these have been mainly conducted in adults, and in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). The exact role of mucoactive agents in children with non-CF lung disease is not well established. We present an overview of the current literature reporting clinical outcome measures of treatment with NAC, rhDNase, and hypertonic saline in children. Pediatr Pulmonol. 2007; 42:989–1001. ß 2007 Wiley-Liss, Inc. Key words: mucolytic; sulfhydryl compounds; N-acetylcysteine; dornase alfa; hyper- tonic saline; respiratory tract disease. INTRODUCTION One possible means to evaluate a mucoactive agent is to assess its effect on mucociliary clearance (MCC) or cough Mucus clearance is an important primary innate airway clearance with the use of radiolabeled aerosol. Discussing defense mechanism, and our understanding of the key this subject is outside the scope of this review. Moreover, parameters underlying its function has grown rapidly in the studies on mucoactive agents in CF patients, and studies last decade.1,2 Impaired mucus clearance or mucus hyper- on physiotherapy or secretion clearance techniques in secretion are important clinical features in diseases such as (pediatric) lung disease patients have been reviewed by cystic fibrosis (CF), recurrent bronchitis, asthma, and others, and will therefore not be discussed in this review.

  • Mucoactive Agents for Airway Mucus Hypersecretory Diseases
    Mucoactive Agents for Airway Mucus Hypersecretory Diseases Duncan F Rogers PhD FIBiol Introduction Sputum Profile of Airway Inflammation and Mucus Hypersecretory Phenotype in Asthma, COPD, and CF Which Aspect of Airway Mucus Hypersecretion to Target? Theoretical Requirements for Effective Therapy of Airway Mucus Hypersecretion Current Recommendations for Clinical Use of Mucolytic Drugs Mucoactive Drugs N-Acetylcysteine: How Does it Work? Does it Work? Dornase Alfa Hypertonic Saline Surfactant Analysis Summary Airway mucus hypersecretion is a feature of a number of severe respiratory diseases, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and cystic fibrosis (CF). However, each disease has a different airway inflammatory response, with consequent, and presumably linked, mucus hypersecretory phenotype. Thus, it is possible that optimal treatment of the mucus hyper- secretory element of each disease should be disease-specific. Nevertheless, mucoactive drugs are a longstanding and popular therapeutic option, and numerous compounds (eg, N-acetylcysteine, erdosteine, and ambroxol) are available for clinical use worldwide. However, rational recommen- dation of these drugs in guidelines for management of asthma, COPD, or CF has been hampered by lack of information from well-designed clinical trials. In addition, the mechanism of action of most of these drugs is unknown. Consequently, although it is possible to categorize them according to putative mechanisms of action, as expectorants (aid and/or induce cough), mucolytics (thin

  • Oxidative Stress and Cognitive Alterations Induced by Cancer Chemotherapy Drugs: a Scoping Review
    antioxidants Review Oxidative Stress and Cognitive Alterations Induced by Cancer Chemotherapy Drugs: A Scoping Review Omar Cauli 1,2 1 Frailty and Cognitive Impairment Group (FROG), University of Valencia, 46010 Valencia, Spain; [email protected]; Tel.: +34-96-386-41-82; Fax: +34-96-398-30-35 2 Department of Nursing, University of Valencia, 46010 Valencia, Spain Abstract: Cognitive impairment is one of the most deleterious effects of chemotherapy treatment in cancer patients, and this problem sometimes remains even after chemotherapy ends. Common classes of chemotherapy-based regimens such as anthracyclines, taxanes, and platinum derivatives can induce both oxidative stress in the blood and in the brain, and these effects can be reproduced in neuronal and glia cell cultures. In rodent models, both the acute and repeated administration of doxorubicin or adriamycin (anthracyclines) or cisplatin impairs cognitive functions, as shown by their diminished performance in different learning and memory behavioural tasks. Administration of compounds with strong antioxidant effects such as N-acetylcysteine, gamma-glutamyl cysteine ethyl ester, polydatin, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, and 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate sodium (MESNA) counteract both oxidative stress and cognitive alterations induced by chemotherapeutic drugs. These antioxidant molecules provide the scientific basis to design clinical trials in patients with the aim of reducing the oxidative stress and cognitive alterations, among other probable central nervous system changes, elicited by chemotherapy in cancer patients. In particular, N-acetylcysteine and MESNA are currently used in clinical settings and are therefore attracting scientific attention. Citation: Cauli, O.
