NEDLG National Essential Drug List &Guidelines Ministry of Health & Population (MOHP) NNEEDDLLGG National Essential Drug List &Guidelines 2006 EGYPT Technical Research and Training Department (TRTD) Central Administration of Pharmaceutical Affairs (CAPA) Foreword: The first Essential Drug List and Guidelines was issued in the year 1998. The Essential Drug concept was adopted in developing the Essential Drug List and Guidelines as one of the ways and means to ensure that the pharmaceutical products included in the list are available when and where they are needed. Furthermore, the list helps to reduce the number of drugs and to lower the cost. Essential Drugs are crucial to the success of health programs; the drugs are part of the final link between health services. For all the above reasons, it was very important to update the Essential Drug List to comply with the strategy of the Ministry of Health and Population (MOHP) . "Health for all " is the ultimate goal of all endeavors of MOHP. For the sake of patients we do our best to ensure safety, efficacy, quality, and affordability of drugs. I would like to express my deep thanks and appreciation to all experts who participated in updating the list, revising the text, and made the final editing. My sincere thanks are also extended to the experts who prepared the first edition. Minister Of Health & Population Prof. Dr. Hatem El Gabaly INTRODUCTION For the optimal use of the limited financial resources for health in developing countries the availability of drugs must be restricted to those proven to be therapeutically effective, to have acceptable safety and to satisfy the health needs of the population. These selected drugs are labeled "Essential" indicating they are the basic and necessary group of agents that are needed to meet the health needs of the population. The primary concept behind the use of the list of essential drugs is to reduce the number of drugs available. This will assist in the monitoring of the quality and availability of drugs in order to avoid waste and to concentrate on the pharmaceutical agents within Egypt. The advantages of an essential drug list are: 1. Reduced number of pharmaceutical products. 2. Reduced cost. 3. Improved procurement, storage and distribution and local availability. 4. Fewer drugs for quality control. 5. Training is easier with fewer drugs. 6. Improvement in the quality of drug utilization, management, information and monitoring. 7. Providing a stimulus to the local pharmaceutical industries to supply essential, generically labeled drugs, which will reduce expenditures and minimize drug importation. The aim of the "Essential Drug Committee" is to establish an up-to-date, essential drug list for different levels of health care in Egypt. Every drug is identified using a coding system that assigns that drug to a specific health care level. For each generic name, the health care level is placed on the right side of the page framed within a black box. The levels are: 1: for use by all medical professionals. 2: for use only by medical specialist and consultant physicians. 3: for use only by consultant physicians. The drugs selected for this list are described both using generic and brand names to facilitate the selection of the most appropriate drug product. In selection these factors were considered: • Source of raw material. • Innovator or generic. • Organoleptic properties. • Stability (Accelerated, real time, climatic zone). • Bioavilability and bioequivalence. • Drug history (benefit/risk ratio). • Cost. This multi-level essential drug list has these characteristics : • Consistent with the pattern of prevalent diseases. • Simple drugs are always selected. Combinations of drugs are limited. • Contains a common core with universal relevance and application. • Indicates priorities in drug needs. • Contains drugs, which are available at all times in adequate amounts and in the proper dosage forms at a suitable price. • Flexible enough to meet the changing priorities in health care. The chosen drugs are Written in generic and taken into consideration in selecting a brand are illustrated. •The different levels were assigned on the bases of the requirements of working physicians in various care settings. The Arrangement of the updated Essential Drug List: Part 1 (page 1-18) contains the National Essential Drug List (EDL) under its Nonproprietary names (Generics). Part 2 (page 1 - 137) contains monographs on non-proprietary drugs of the list arranged under therapeutic categories. Each monograph includes basic information such as indications, side effects, contraindications, interactions, precautions and doses. Part 3 (page 1 - 31) contains proprietary names of generics that are included in the essen- tial drug list. For the proprietary preparations, the information provided includes the trade name, the manufacturer, units in one pack, dosage form, and the retail price.

  • Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor
    mAChR Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor mAChRs (muscarinic acetylcholine receptors) are acetylcholine receptors that form G protein-receptor complexes in the cell membranes of certainneurons and other cells. They play several roles, including acting as the main end-receptor stimulated by acetylcholine released from postganglionic fibersin the parasympathetic nervous system. mAChRs are named as such because they are more sensitive to muscarine than to nicotine. Their counterparts are nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), receptor ion channels that are also important in the autonomic nervous system. Many drugs and other substances (for example pilocarpineand scopolamine) manipulate these two distinct receptors by acting as selective agonists or antagonists. Acetylcholine (ACh) is a neurotransmitter found extensively in the brain and the autonomic ganglia. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 mAChR Inhibitors & Modulators (+)-Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate (-)-Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate Cat.

  • Development and Validation of Spectrophotometric Method for Simultaneous Determination of Isopropamide and Trifluoperazine in Tablet Dosage Form
    Development and Validation of Spectrophotometric Method for Simultaneous Determination of Isopropamide and Trifluoperazine in Tablet Dosage Form Masimukku Siva Kishore1,2, Chintala Rambabu1 1Department of Chemistry, Acharya Nagarjuna University, Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, India, 2Department of Chemistry, KBN PG College, Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, India. Abstract ORIGINAL ARTICLE ORIGINAL Aim: The aim of this study is to develop simple, sensitive, rapid, accurate, precise and economical spectrophotometric method based on simultaneous equation method for the simultaneous estimation of isopropamide and trifluoperazine in combined tablet dosage form. Materials and Methods: The method is based on the simultaneous equation and first-order derivative method for analysis of both the drugs using methanol:water in the ratio of 7:3 (v/v) as solvent. Isopropamide has absorbance maxima at 248.5 nm and trifluoperazine has absorbance maxima at 227.0 nm in methanol. Results and Discussion: The linearity was obtained in the concentration range of 5-30 µg/mL for isopropamide and 2-12 µg/mL for trifluoperazine in both the methods. The concentration of drugs was determined by using simultaneous equation method. The result of analysis has been validated statistically and by recovery studies. The results of mean recovery and other validation parameters were found within the acceptable limits. Both methods were applied to estimate the marketed formulation and found good recovery of the drug. The methods were found to be simple, sensitive, accurate and precise and were applicable for simultaneous determination of isopropamide and trifluoperazine in pharmaceutical dosage form. Key words: Isopropamide, method development and validation, trifluoperazine, ultraviolet spectrophotometer.

Downloaded from Gut, 1976, 17, 351-353 Effect of diazepam and hyoscine butylbromide on response to secretin and cholecystokinin-pancreozymin in man J. H. B. SAUNDERS, GUYA MASOERO, AND K. G. WORMSLEY' From the Department of Therapeutics, University of Dundee, Dundee SUMMARY Ten subjects received secretin and cholecystokinin or, in duplicate tests, the two hor- mones together with either diazepam or diazepam plus hyoscine butylbromide in order to determine whether these drugs, which are often used during retrograde endoscopic cannulation ofthe pancreatic duct, affect pancreatic and biliary secretion in response to the hormones. Diazepam with hyoscine butylbromide reduced the secretion of trypsin into the duodenum and delayed the appearance of both trypsin and bilirubin in duodenal aspirate. These effects must be taken into account when interpreting pancreatic and biliary responses measured during direct cannulation of the pancreatic duct. Endoscopic retrograde cannulation of the pancreatic vents in the antrum.
