  • 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.

E-mail of Corresponding author: [email protected]. Abstract: A simple, accurate rapid and precise has been developed and validated for simultaneous estimation of Clobetasol Propionate and Ketoconazole in Pharmaceutical Cream Formulation by RP-HPLC Method. The successful estimation was carried out of the drug product is developed on the ODS Qualisil Column C18 (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5μm or equivalent) at ambient temperature using Methanol: Acetonitrile: Phosphate buffer (50:20:30 v/v/v) as mobile phase composition. The flow rate was adjusted to 1.5mL/minute and the absorption maxima were observed on UV detector at 254 nm. Retention Time for Clobetasole Propionate 11.1±0.1min and Ketoconazole 12.2±0.1min. The linearity was obtained in the concentration range of 6-14µg/mL and 120-280µg/mL for Clobetasole Propionate and Ketoconazole respectively. Mean percentage recoveries were 99.16% for Clobetasole Propionate and 99.17% for Ketoconazole. The LOD of Clobetasole Propionate and Ketoconazole were found to be 0.7μg/mL and 2.0μg/mL whereas the LOQ was 3.0μg/mL and 10.0μg/mL respectively. Percentage relative standard deviation of percent assay values for replicate sample preparation was 0.28% for Clobetasole Propionate and 0.47% for Ketoconazole.

  • A List of Medications That May Lower Your Patients' Costs
    A list of medications that may lower your patients’ costs INTRODUCTION Catamaran utilizes a Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee (P & T Committee), made up of practicing physicians, pharmacists, and nurses to help ensure that our formulary is medically sound and that it supports patient health. This committee reviews and evaluates medications on the formulary based on safety and efficacy to help maintain clinical integrity in all therapeutic categories. FORMULARY DESIGN There are numerous formulary designs that can be used by a pharmacy benefits administrator. Catamaran has chosen a formulary structure which is open and incentive based. Open Formulary: features co‐payments for medications that are preferred and non‐ preferred brands, plus lower co‐payments for generic drugs. Incentive Based: features different co‐payments for medications that are on or off the formulary. In this type of formulary, the patient cost structure may be two‐tier, three‐ tier, or four‐tier design. USING THIS FORMULARY REFERENCE GUIDE TO HELP CONTAIN COSTS Many benefit sponsors use the Catamaran formulary to help manage the overall cost of providing prescription drug benefits. This formulary offers a wide range of medications from which to choose. We realize that this formulary reference guide may not include every drug from every manufacturer. However, choosing a preferred drug when it is appropriate can provide access to the necessary medications to stay healthy, at a cost that is more affordable. KNOWING HOW THE FORMULARY INFORMATION IS ORGANIZED The following formulary reference guide is designed so that generic products are listed first in each drug category. The preferred brand name products are listed next, and non‐preferred brand products are listed last.

  • Texas Children's Hospital Dermatology Service PCP Referral Guidelines- Seborrheic Dermatitis
    Texas Children's Hospital Dermatology Service PCP Referral Guidelines- Seborrheic Dermatitis Diagnosis: SEBORRHEIC DERMATITIS GENERAL INFORMATION: • Seborrheic dermatitis is a common, benign skin condition that is thought to be caused by overgrowth of a yeast that resides on the skin, Malassezia. • In infants, this typically resolves within the first year of life, so treatment is not required. • In children and teenagers, this may be chronic, requiring maintenance therapy. TREATMENT RECOMMENDATIONS: For children/teenagers: Scalp: • Maintenance shampoo 2-3 times weekly (or less frequently for drier hair types), shampoo should be allowed to sit for ~5 minutes before rinsing) o Ketoconazole 2% shampoo o OTC Selenium sulfide shampoos (Selsun Blue, Head and Shoulders Clinical Strength) o OTC Pyrithione zinc shampoos (Head and Shoulders Classic Clean) • For symptomatic relief: Fluocinolone 0.01% (Derma smoothe oil) or clobetasol 0.05% solution twice daily as needed. Face: • Miconazole 1 % cream (or other anti-yeast medication) mixed in equal amounts with hydrocortisone 2.5% cream (or other class 5, 6, 7 topical steroid) For infants with generalized skin involvement • Mild: Miconazole 1 % cream (or other anti-yeast medication) mixed in equal amounts with hydrocortisone 2.5% ointment (or other class 5, 6, 7 topical steroid) • Severe: Miconazole 1 % cream (or other anti-yeast medication) mixed in equal amounts with triamcinolone 0.1% ointment (or other class 3 or 4 topical steroid) REFERRAL GUIDELINES: Please refer patients who fail treatment guidelines above. Please avoid referring patients who are frustrated by need for maintenance therapy, as this is expected. Educational recommendations are made from the best evidence, expert opinions and consideration for the patients and families cared for by the service.

Prednicarbate (1) was transformed into various metabolites. One new and two known metabolites were purified named as prednisolone 17-ethylcarbonate (2) Prednisolone (3) and 4-(4-hydroxybenzyl)-2-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)phenyl methyl carbonate (4). The compound (4) was separated as a new compound and was not reported in literature. Its structure did not show resemblance with prednicarbate so possibly derived from fungal mass. Their structures were elucidated by using modern spectroscopic techniques e.g. 13C NMR, 1H NMR, HMQC, HMQC, COSY, NOESY and mass spectrometry e.g. EI-MS. Keywords: Biotransformation, Cunninghamella elegans, Prednicarbate, Topical. INTRODUCTION EXPERIMENTAL Now a day's microbial biotransformation is flourished in Prednicarbate (1) was obtained from Stiefel Laboratories order to find the new modified drug molecules. In microbes, Pakistan (Pvt) Ltd. Thin layer chromatography was carried bacteria and fungi are used to modify existing drug molecules out on precoated plates (Silica gel, Merck, PF254).
