China Abstract Objectives: We investigated the outcomes of Ivermectin-Doxycycline vs. Hydroxychloroquine-Azithromycin combina- tion therapy in mild to moderate COVID19 patients. Methods: Patients were divided randomly into two groups: Ivermectin 200µgm/kg single dose + Doxycycline 100mg BID for ten days in group A, and Hydroxychloroquine 400mg for the first day, then 200mg BID for nine days + Azithro- mycin 500mg daily for five days in group B (Control group). RT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2 infection was repeated in all symp- tomatic patients on the second day onward without symptoms. Repeat PCR was done every two days onward if the result found positive. Time to the negative PCR and symptomatic recovery was measured for each group. Results: All subjects in Group A reached a negative PCR, at a mean of 8.93 days, and reached symptomatic recovery, at a mean of 5.93 days, with 55.10% symptom-free by the fifth day. In group B, 96.36% reached a negative PCR at a mean of 9.33 days and were symptoms-free at 6.99 days.

  • Guidance for Treatment of Covid-19 in Adults and Children
    GUIDANCE FOR TREATMENT OF COVID-19 IN ADULTS AND CHILDREN Patient population: Adults and pediatric patients with COVID-19 infection, who are admitted on an inpatient floor or to the intensive care unit. Key points: Details regarding isolation/precautions, personal protective equipment, patient movement, family/visitor policy, and cleaning/disinfection can be found here. Clinical symptoms: Range from asymptomatic, uncomplicated upper respiratory tract viral infection to pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis, and septic shock (Table 1) Diagnosis: See current COVID-19 testing recommendations. Treatment: Based on data from several randomized control trials, Remdesivir may provide a modest benefit in a subgroup of patients hospitalized with COVID-19. See further details regarding patient populations (see below) and Table 2. Table 1. Potential Treatment Recommendations by Severity of Disease for Patients 18 Years or Older Most COVID-19 therapeutics have not been studied in children under 18. The below treatment recommendations may apply to some children, however should be addressed on a case-by-case basis and discussed with Pediatric Infectious Diseases.

  • Guidelines for the Management of Sexually Transmitted Infections
    GUIDELINES FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS 3. TREATMENT OF SPECIFIC INFECTIONS 3.1. GONOCOCCAL INFECTIONS A large proportion of gonococcal isolates worldwide are now resistant to penicillins, tetracyclines, and other older antimicrobial agents, which can therefore no longer be 32 recommended for the treatment of gonorrhoea. TREATMENT OF SPECIFIC INFECTIONS SPECIFIC OF TREATMENT It is important to monitor local in vitro susceptibility,as well as the clinical efficacy of recommended regimens. Note In general it is recommended that concurrent anti-chlamydia therapy be given to all patients with gonorrhoea, as described in the section on chlamydia infections, since dual infection is common.This does not apply to patients in whom a specific diagnosis of C. trachomatis has been excluded by a laboratory test. UNCOMPLICATED ANOGENITAL INFECTION Recommended regimens I ciprofloxacin, 500 mg orally,as a single dose OR I azithromycin, 2 g orally,as a single dose OR I ceftriaxone, 125 mg by intramuscular injection, as a single dose OR I cefixime, 400 mg orally,as a single dose OR I spectinomycin, 2 g by intramuscular injection, as a single dose. Note I Ciprofloxacin is contraindicated in pregnancy.The manufacturer does not recommend it for use in children and adolescents. GUIDELINES FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS I There is accumulating evidence that the cure rate of Azithromycin for gonococcal infections is best achieved by a 2-gram single dose regime.The 1-gram dose provides protracted sub-therapeutic levels which may precipitate the emergence of resistance. There are variations in the anti-gonococcal activity of individual quinolones, and it is important to use only the most active.

  • Would There Be Pharmacodynamics Without Pharmacokinetics?
    AGORA | CORRESPONDENCE Nontuberculosis mycobacteria infections: would there be pharmacodynamics without pharmacokinetics? To the Editor: We read with great interest the recent publication by KWAK et al. [1] involving a meta-analysis of studies reporting treatment outcomes for Mycobacterium abscessus pulmonary disease (MAB-PD). The authors should be commended for identifying the association between azithromycin, amikacin and imipenem, and improved clinical outcome in MAB-PD. M. abscessus, together with M. avium complex (MAC) and M. kansasii, is one of the most common and difficult to treat nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species associated with pulmonary disease [2]. Treatment regimen for NTM infections is largely empirical and driven by clinical experience. Without sound pharmacokinetic (PK)- and pharmacodynamic (PD)-based guidelines on dose, frequency, dose adjustment or monitoring, clinicians are left with uncertainties when it comes to the specifics of prescribing a drug regimen. There is a great need for evidence-based dosing and monitoring strategies. We would like to kindly alert the authors, other clinicians and researchers about the importance of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics when considering therapeutic effects of drugs. Unfortunately, the authors did not consider collecting PK data, drug exposure (e.g. peak concentration (Cmax)orarea under the concentration time curve AUC)) or therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) interventions from the original studies. Although CONNELL and WILKIE [3] emphasised the importance of future high-quality studies in their editorial, PK/PD was not addressed. Interestingly, when we looked through the eight original studies included in their final analysis, two studies included PK data. One of them was the study −1 by NAMKOONG et al.

ABSTRACT Background: Aim of the study was to assess trend in antibiotics consumption pattern from 2016 to 2019 using AWaRe classification, ATC and Defined daily dose methodology (DDD) in a tertiary care hospital. Antibiotics are crucial for treating infectious diseases and have significantly improved the prognosis of patients with infectious diseases, reducing morbidity and mortality. The aim of the study is to classify the antibiotic based on WHO AWaRe classification and compare their four-year consumption trends. The study was conducted at a tertiary care center, Pilakhuwa, Hapur. Antibiotic procurement data for a period of 4 years (2016-2019) was collected from the Central medical store. Methods: This is a retrospective time series analysis of systemic antibiotics with no intervention at patient level. Antibiotic procurement was taken as proxy for consumption assuming that same has been used.
