  • Nizatidine) Oral Solution
    Axid® (nizatidine) Oral Solution Description: Nizatidine (USP) is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist. Chemically, it is N-[2-[[[2-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-4-thiazolyl]methyl]thio]ethyl]-N'-methyl-2-nitro-1,1- ethenediamine. The structural formula is as follows: Nizatidine has the empirical formula C12H21N5O2S2 representing a molecular weight of 331.47. It is an off-white to buff crystalline solid that is soluble in water. Nizatidine has a bitter taste and mild sulfur-like odor. Axid® Oral Solution is formulated as a clear, yellow, oral solution with bubble gum flavor and each 1 mL contains 15 mg of nizatidine. Axid® Oral Solution also contains the inactive ingredients methylparaben, propylparaben, glycerin, sodium alginate, purified water, sodium chloride, saccharin sodium, sodium citrate dihydrate, citric acid anhydrous, sucrose, bubble gum flavor, artificial sweetness enhancer, and sodium hydroxide. Clinical Pharmacology in Adults: Nizatidine is a competitive, reversible inhibitor of histamine at the histamine H2-receptors, particularly those in the gastric parietal cells. Antisecretory Activity—1. Effects on Acid Secretion: Nizatidine significantly inhibited nocturnal gastric acid secretion for up to 12 hours. Nizatidine also significantly inhibited gastric acid secretion stimulated by food, caffeine, betazole, and pentagastrin (Table 1). Table 1.

  • Conceptual Model for Using Imidazoline Derivative Solutions in Pulpal Management
    Journal of Clinical Medicine Review Conceptual Model for Using Imidazoline Derivative Solutions in Pulpal Management Robert S. Jones Division of Pediatric Dentistry, Department of Developmental & Surgical Sciences, School of Dentistry, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Alpha-adrenergic agonists, such as the Imidazoline derivatives (ImDs) of oxymetazoline and xylometazoline, are highly effective hemostatic agents. ImDs have not been widely used in dentistry but their use in medicine, specifically in ophthalmology and otolaryngology, warrants consideration for pulpal hemostasis. This review presents dental healthcare professionals with an overview of ImDs in medicine. ImD solutions have the potential to be more effective and biocompatible than existing topical hemostatic compounds in pulpal management. Through a comprehensive analysis of the pharmacology of ImDs and the microphysiology of hemostasis regulation in oral tissues, a conceptual model of pulpal management by ImD solutions is presented. Keywords: hemostasis; alpha-adrenergic agonists; imidazoline; oxymetazoline; nasal; dental pulp; mucosa; apexogenesis; pulpotomy; direct pulp cap; dentistry 1. Overview Citation: Jones, R.S.
