Page 1 of 59 Syntex Collection of Pharmaceutical Advertising NMAH.AC.0821 Biographical / Historical Syntex, S.A. was a pharmaceutical company formed in Mexico City in 1944 by Russell Marker (1902-1995), an American chemist who worked for the Ethyl Corporation. Marker successfully made synthetic progesterone (pregnancy hormone) from chemical constituents found in Mexican barbasco plants, which are inediable wild yams. Initially the company was a supplier of steroid chemicals, but it eventually evolved into a producer of other pharmaceuticals under its own name. This led to the development at Syntex of an oral contraceptive pill that was cost effective and a cheap, ample supply of cortisone. The company further broadened its scope to develop medicines to treat chronic illness and major diseases such as arthritis, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, cancer and Alzheimer's. The pharmaceutical products offered by Syntex related to allergies, anti-inflammatory/analgesic, anti-viral, cardiovascular, dermatologic, and reproductive/ gynecologic drug therapies. In 1957, Syntex incorporated in Panama, and in 1958 became a publicly owned company. In 1964, Syntex branded it's own contraceptive Norinyl and established a United States presence in Palo Alto, California. Several divisions were formed: Syva Company (diagnostics division); Syntex Opthalmics; Syntex Agribusiness, Inc.; Syntex Dental Products; and Syntex Beauty Care, Inc. The company's name is derived from the "Synt" in Synthesis and "ex" in Mexico. In 1994, the Roche Group, a Swiss global health-care company, acquired Syntex.

Scope and Contents The collection consists of domestic and foreign advertisements primarily from medical journals, leaflets, and some product literature from 1962 to 1978, maintained by Syntex of its competitors' products. Many of the ads have "press advertisements control of repetition" slips stapled to them. These slips, maintained by Syntex, captured the journal title the contained the advertisement, the country, year, month, and length of time the ad ran. For example, The Medical Journal of Australia Advertiser, Australia, 1971, April, 17 days. General drug product categories include anti-inflammatories, analgesics, dermatologicals, respiratory drugs, psychological therapies, anabolic steroids, sex hormones, and oral contraceptives. The arrangement of each series reflects the original order. Some of the series contain a coding system presumably applied by the company. For example BC means birth control; GYN means gynecological and PT means psychological therapy. Only Series One, Two and Three have these acronyms applied at the folder level. Series 1, Birth Control/Gynecological Therapy, 1962-1978, is arranged alphabetically by country. When known, the name of the drug manufacturer is provided. The oral contraceptive and menopausal hormone advertising is a good source of images of women. Series 2, Steroids, 1963-1976, consists of advertisements for steroids, but drugs for other conditions are represented here, such as arthritis. The materials are arranged alphabetically by country, followed by the name of the drug manufacturer. In some instances the drug name is noted parenthetically. Series 3, Psychological Therapy, 1969-1977 and undated, consists of advertisements related to drugs that treat depression and anxiety. Many of the ads feature images of men and women in various psychological states. The series is arranged alphabetically by country followed by the drug manufacturer and the name of the specific drug in parentheses. For example: Australia, Ciba (Trasicor). Series 4, Analgesics, 1964-1978 and undated, consists of advertisements for drugs that relate to pain reduction or anti-inflammatories. The series is arranged alphabetically by country with the drug manufacturer name provided. Page 2 of 59 Syntex Collection of Pharmaceutical Advertising NMAH.AC.0821 Series 5, Dermatologicals, circa 1970s, consists of advertisements for dermatological drugs such as ointments, acne lotions, nasal sprays, creams, lotions, suppositories, aerosols, and powders. The series is arranged alpabetically by drug type. For example, drugs with dexamethasone are grouped together followed by dietilamine, estilone, and fluazacort. Within that drug group the name of the specific drug is listed parenthetically along with the country. The collection inventory reads as: Dexamethasone (Ortricorten), Germany. In some instances, the drug manufacturer is listed, but overall this information is inconsistent. Series 6, Cardiovascular, circa 1970s, consists of advertisements for cardiac related drugs. The series is arranged alphabetically by drug categories, followed by the specific drug name if known and country. For example, Practolol (Eraldin), South Africa and Practolol (Eraldine), France. Series 7, Respiratory, circa 1970s, consists of advertisements for respiratory drugs and therapies. The series is arranged alphabetically by drug categories, followed by the specific drug name, if known, and country. For example, Beclomethasone (Aldecin), New Zealand. Arrangement The collection is arranged into seven series. Series 1, Birth Control/Gynecological Therapy, 1962-1978 Subseries 1, Australia, 1968-1977 Subseries 2, Austria, 1969 Subseries 3, Belgium, 1965-1972 and undated Subseries 4, Canada, 1974-1976 Subseries 5, England, 1962-1977 Subseries 6, France, 1965-1977 Subseries 7, Germany, 1965-1977 Subseries 8, Hong Kong, 1975 Subseries 9, India, 1968-1973 Subseries 10, Italy, 1965-1976 Subseries 11, Japan, 1972-1973 Subseries 12, Netherlands, 1963-1969 Subseries 13, New Zealand, 1969-1978 Subseries 14, Portgual, 1965-1971 Subseries 15, South Africa, 1969-1976 Subseries 16, Sweden, 1968-1972 Subseries 17, Switzerland, 1964-1974 Subseries 18, Thailand, circa 1970s Subseries 19, Turkey, 1972 Series 2, [Steroids?], 1963-1976 Series 3, Psychological Therapy, 1969-1977 and undated Series 4, Analgesics, 1964-1978 and undated Series 5, Dermatologicals, circa 1970s Series 6, Cardiovascular, circa 1970s

  • Steroid Use in Prednisone Allergy Abby Shuck, Pharmd Candidate
    Steroid Use in Prednisone Allergy Abby Shuck, PharmD candidate 2015 University of Findlay If a patient has an allergy to prednisone and methylprednisolone, what (if any) other corticosteroid can the patient use to avoid an allergic reaction? Corticosteroids very rarely cause allergic reactions in patients that receive them. Since corticosteroids are typically used to treat severe allergic reactions and anaphylaxis, it seems unlikely that these drugs could actually induce an allergic reaction of their own. However, between 0.5-5% of people have reported any sort of reaction to a corticosteroid that they have received.1 Corticosteroids can cause anything from minor skin irritations to full blown anaphylactic shock. Worsening of allergic symptoms during corticosteroid treatment may not always mean that the patient has failed treatment, although it may appear to be so.2,3 There are essentially four classes of corticosteroids: Class A, hydrocortisone-type, Class B, triamcinolone acetonide type, Class C, betamethasone type, and Class D, hydrocortisone-17-butyrate and clobetasone-17-butyrate type. Major* corticosteroids in Class A include cortisone, hydrocortisone, methylprednisolone, prednisolone, and prednisone. Major* corticosteroids in Class B include budesonide, fluocinolone, and triamcinolone. Major* corticosteroids in Class C include beclomethasone and dexamethasone. Finally, major* corticosteroids in Class D include betamethasone, fluticasone, and mometasone.4,5 Class D was later subdivided into Class D1 and D2 depending on the presence or 5,6 absence of a C16 methyl substitution and/or halogenation on C9 of the steroid B-ring. It is often hard to determine what exactly a patient is allergic to if they experience a reaction to a corticosteroid.

MILLER & @ Designated Contracting States: AT BE CH DE FR GB IT CO. Lincoln House 296-302 High Holborn, London LILUNLSE WC1V7JH(GB) @ Treatment of skin disorders. A topical composition for skin treatment contains an anti- inflammatory glucocorticoid in combination with an essential fatty acid (EFA) of the n-6 or n-3 series or equivalent poly- unsaturated fatty acid, as such or in the form of a physio- logically acceptable derivative convertible in the body thereto. FIELD OF INVENTION The invention relates to compositions of y-linolenic acid and related materials with anti-inflammatory glucocorticoids and to the treatment of inflammatory skin disorders with them. BACKGROUND AND EXPLANATION OF INVENTION Much interest has been shown in recent years in essential fatty acid metabolism, especially in its relation to prosta- glandin (PG) metabolism and in particular to the balance of 1-series and 2-series PGs in the body. The main dietary essential fatty acid (EFA) utilised in the fully healthy human body is linoleic acid, but the Δ6- desaturase that converts it to the next acid in the n-6 series, namely y-linoleic acid (GLA) is at a low level of activity in many conditions.
