  • Anti-Diarrheal Activity and Brine Shrimp Lethality Bioassay of Methanolic Extract of Cordyline Fruticosa (L.) A
    Naher et al. Clinical Phytoscience (2019) 5:15 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40816-019-0109-z ORIGINAL CONTRIBUTION Open Access Anti-diarrheal activity and brine shrimp lethality bioassay of methanolic extract of Cordyline fruticosa (L.) A. Chev. leaves Sharmin Naher1*, Md. Abdullah Aziz1, Mst. Irin Akter2, S. M. Mushiur Rahman1, Sadiur Rahman Sajon1 and Kishor Mazumder1,3 Abstract Background: Cordyline fruticosa (L.) A. Chev. (Asparagaceae) is a plant which is traditionally used for the treatment of cough, bloody cough, diarrhea, dysentery, high fever, difficulties in urine, bloody urine, small pox, madness, skin eruptions, joint pains, rheumatic bone pains, sore throat, neck pain, bleeding hemorrhoids and inflammation in the digestive tract. Therefore, the present work aims to investigate the antidiarrheal and cytotoxic activities of methanolic extract of Cordyline fruticosa leaves in mice and brine shrimp, respectively. Methods: The effects of the methanol extract of Cordyline fruticosa leaves (MCFL) on castor oil-induced diarrhea, magnesium sulphate induced diarrhea and charcoal meal test in mice were investigated. In addition, brine shrimp lethality bioassay method was used to evaluate cytotoxic activity of MCFL. Results: In castor oil induced diarrheal test, MCFL at the dose of 200, 400 and 800 mg/kg body weight significantly (∗P< 0.05, versus control) and dose-dependently reduced the frequency of diarrhea. The frequency of magnesium sulphate-induced diarrhea was significantly reduced by MCFL at the dose of with 800 mg/kg. In the charcoal meal test, the extract at the dose of 400 and 800 mg/kg body weight significantly (∗P< 0.05) reduced the distance travelled by charcoal along the intestinal tract when compare with control.

Summary FORENSIC SCIENCE PAPER No. 9: Drugs of Abuse MODULE No. 17: Designer Drugs 1. Learning Outcomes After studying this module, you shall be able to know about: The significance of Designer Drugs Classification of Designer Drugs Forensic analysis of Designer Drugs 2. Introduction Over ages, humans fortunately discovered that certain ingested plants were a source of unique satisfying feelings, beyond satiety. Some were mildly affecting (e.g. nicotine, caffeine), others enhanced mood or altered perception, reduced pain, intoxicated, or produced euphoria (e.g. alcohol, marijuana, hallucinogens, opiates, cocaine). In the past two centuries, consumption of these psychoactive substances expanded rapidly. Decontamination of the active chemicals, distribution by manoeuvres for maximum effect and global marketing contributed to this expansion. Modern chemistry has produced a huge range of variations of these plant products, paralleled by an unprecedented level of adverse biological, behavioural, medical and social consequences. Following this phenomenon, Designer drugs are produced to be similar to, but not identical with Psychoactive Drugs that are illegal to possess or sell for human consumption, unless for medical purposes. A recurring threat to public health, the Designer Drug sub-culture has burst out over the past decade.

Some examples of the need for compounding products would be: the dosage formulation must be changed to allow a person with dysphagia (trouble swallowing) to have a liquid formulation of a commercially available tablet only product, or to obtain the exact strength needed of the active ingredient, to avoid ingredients that a particular patient has an allergy to, or simply to add flavoring to medication to make it more palatable. Buprenorphine, butorphanol, codeine, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, levorphanol, meperidine, methadone, morphine, oxycodone, and oxymorphone powders are opioid drugs that are used for pain control. The intent of the criteria is to provide coverage consistent with product labeling, FDA guidance, standards of medical practice, evidence-based drug information, and/or published guidelines. Because of the risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse with opioids, even at recommended doses, and because of the greater risks of overdose and death (1-15).

Minutes: Chairman Koppelman: Opened the hearing on HB 1070. Mark Hardy, Assistant Executive Director of the NO State Board of Pharmacy: (See testimony #1and 2) He went over these handouts. Rep. Klemin: I don't see an emergency clause in the bill and there is none in the amendment. Did I miss it? Mark Hardy: I want to put an emergency clause on the bill. Rep. Klemin: I think you have to have another section at the end of the bill saying this is an emergency. Rep. Kretschmar: How often do these new drugs come out and should be on it? Mark Hardy: As far as the schedule 1 substances; it is a revolving door and we are always trying to stay in front of what the chemists and what the drug makers are doing. As far as schedule 2 through 5; it is a continuous thing through the DEA. When it becomes a federally controlled substance it takes precedence. Rep. Larson: You have not been aware of the bill I was sponsoring regarding synthetic drugs yet? Mark Hardy: No. The Attorney General briefed me on the Bill #1133. Rep. Larson: The reason for my bill is not get into all of the pharmaceutical names of the chemicals, but anybody that possess or manufacturers a analog in order to try and copy these drugs would be guilty of those offences without having to know the specific chemical compound that might be morphed by unscrupulous people trying to see these products.
