April 16, 2009 Manila, Philippines vi THE PHILIPPINE NATIONAL DRUG POLICY The Philippine National Drug Policy (PNDP) is the government's response to the problem of inadequate provision of good quality essential drugs to the people. Part of the problem is the high cost drugs, which renders them inaccessible to the majority of the population. The PNDP stands on five pillars designed to eventually bring about the availability and affordability of safe, effective, and good quality drugs for all sectors of the country, especially for the poor who need them most, but who can least afford them. These five pillars form an integral unit, mutually complementary and supportive of each other. The first pillar is the assurance of the safety, efficacy and usefulness of pharmaceutical products through quality control. This will involve the regulation of the importation, manufacture, marketing, and consumer utilization of all drugs and their intermediates. The second pillar rests on the promotion of the rational use of drugs by both health professionals and the general public. Rational use of drugs refer to a carefully considered pattern of behavior on the part of the prescriber and the consumer. This will limit the use of medicines to situations where there are clear valid indications for them. Furthermore, only the most necessary and scientifically proven efficacious drugs should be used. A key strategy under the rational drug use pillar is the development and implementation of a Philippine National Drug Formulary (PNDF) which shall list those drugs which are most essential for the diseases and conditions encountered in the Philippines, and describe the appropriate use of these essential drugs. Aside from this, the rules and regulations governing the promotion and advertising of pharmaceutical products shall be reviewed and amended in order to contribute towards the promotion of rational use of drugs. With these twin moves, consumers will now be properly guided as to which drugs to use for their particular needs and conditions. The third pillar is the development of self‐reliance in the local pharmaceutical industry. This pillar seeks to strengthen Filipino capabilities for the manufacture of basic and intermediate ingredients for drugs and medicines. By developing a capability to produce strategic essential drugs locally, the country's dependence on imported drugs can be greatly reduced. This will also enable local drug manufacturers to be competitive with the transnational drug firms. The fourth pillar relates to the tailored or targeted procurement of drugs by government with the objective of making available to its own clientele, particularly the lower‐income sectors of the society, the best drugs at the lowest possible cost. It is widely acknowledged that the government is the single largest purchaser of drugs in the country, allocating major part of its health budget for drugs and medicines. The fifth pillar is on people empowerment. This cuts across all the four pillars and aims to assist people in exercising an informed choice in the purchase of cost‐effective medicines. vii The five pillars of the PNDP form a dynamic whole and each pillar is meant to be mutually reinforcing. Quality assurance is a prerequisite for any National Drug Policy. The tenets of rational use will serve as bases for regulation in both government and private sectors. In turn, fair and thorough regulation should promote rational use. The active participation of government in the procurement, distribution and use of drugs will lead the way towards some measures of self‐ reliance and self‐sufficiency. This should also provide impetus for private enterprise to move towards the manufacture of some basic ingredients of drugs, if private industry is to retain its competitive edge. Finally, the PNDP recognizes the value of all sectors of society and seeks their support in the implementation of the National Drug Policy (NDP). The NDP relates to the health and welfare of each and every Filipino and certainly deserves the support of all. viii P R E F A C E to the 7th edition The Philippine National Drug Formulary (PNDF) is an integral component of the Philippine National Drug Policy, aimed at making available and accessible, essential medicines of proven efficacy, safety and quality at affordable cost. It's formulation by the Department of Health (DOH) through the National Formulary Committee (NFC), formerly called the National Drug Committee, has been mandated by R.A. 6675, otherwise known as the Generics Act of 1988. The PNDF Volume I, the Essential Medicines List, is a major step towards rational use of medicines in the country. The medicines are selected with due regard to public health relevance, evidence of efficacy and safety and comparative cost‐effectiveness. The national list of essential medicines is a subset of registered medicines divided according to different levels of care. A carefully selected limited list of essential medicines leads to higher quality of care, better management of medicines including improved quality control, more cost‐effective use of health resources and ensures regular supply of essential medicines, resulting in real health gain and increased confidence on the health system. The 7th edition of the PNDF Volume I has maintained basically the same objectives and organization as in the previous editions.

  • Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome Agents
    Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome Agents Therapeutic Class Overview/Summary: This review will focus on agents used for the treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).1-5 IBS is a gastrointestinal syndrome characterized primarily by non-specific chronic abdominal pain, usually described as a cramp-like sensation, and abnormal bowel habits, either constipation or diarrhea, in which there is no organic cause. Other common gastrointestinal symptoms may include gastroesophageal reflux, dysphagia, early satiety, intermittent dyspepsia and nausea. Patients may also experience a wide range of non-gastrointestinal symptoms. Some notable examples include sexual dysfunction, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, increased urinary frequency/urgency and fibromyalgia-like symptoms.6 IBS is defined by one of four subtypes. IBS with constipation (IBS-C) is the presence of hard or lumpy stools with ≥25% of bowel movements and loose or watery stools with <25% of bowel movements. When IBS is associated with diarrhea (IBS-D) loose or watery stools are present with ≥25% of bowel movements and hard or lumpy stools are present with <25% of bowel movements. Mixed IBS (IBS-M) is defined as the presence of hard or lumpy stools with ≥25% and loose or water stools with ≥25% of bowel movements. Final subtype, or unsubtyped, is all other cases of IBS that do not fall into the other classes. Pharmacological therapy for IBS depends on subtype.7 While several over-the-counter or off-label prescription agents are used for the treatment of IBS, there are currently only two agents approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of IBS-C and three agents approved by the FDA for IBS-D.

Pb is considered as one of the seven criteria pollutants by United States Environmental Protection Agency. Analysis of exposed moss tissues was performed using Flame-Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry by Baguio Water District. There is high metal loading observed on the tissues of Thuidium tamariscellum (Müll. Hal.) Bosch & Sande Lac. after exposure along and in between major road intersections in the city.There is no significant variation in Pb concentration in the exposed moss as revealed by One-Way Analysis of Variance. This study reports the presence of Pb in the ambient air of Baguio City and the lack of monitoring is harmful to people and environment. Nevertheless, this study offers cost-effective air monitoring method that can be adopted in cities as newer available technology.

    COl.V.MISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES SEC(90) 1985 final· Brussels, 29 October 1990 Proposa I for a COUNCIL DIRECTIVE on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relat.ing to cosmetic products -2- EXPLANATORY UEUORANDUM 1. In the context of a people's Europe, the Commission attaches great Importance to simplifying and clarifying Community law so as to make It clearer and more accessible to the ordinary citizen, thus giving hIm new opportunItIes and the chance to make use of the spec if i c rights It gives him. This aim cannot be achieved so long as numerous provisions that have been amended several times, often QUite substantially, remain scattered, so that they must be sought partly In the original Instrument and partly In later amending ones. Considerable research work, comparing many different Instruments, Is thus needed to Identify the current rules. For this reason a consot tdatton of rules that have freQuently been amended Is essential If Community law Is to be clear and transparent. 2. In Its resolution of 26 November 1974 concerning consolidation of Its acts (1), the Council recommended that those of Its acts which have been amended several times be assembled Into a single text. It stressed that, In the Interests of legal certainty, a genuine legislative consolidation, Involving the repeal of earlier acts, should wherever possible be effected (as Is being done In this case). it conseQuently Invited the Commission to let it have proposals for consol !dation and undertook ·to examine them "as Quickly as possible, whltout bringing Into QUestion, during that consol ldatlon, the substantive solutions contained In the consol !dated texts".
