The system is now widely used internationally and the number of users is gradually increasing. The purpose of preparing guidelines is to make information about the ATC classification system and the DDD methodology available to the users. The members of the WHO International Working Group for Drug Statistics Methodology have given expert advice and comments on the work with these guidelines. This 14th edition of the Guidelines for ATC classification and DDD assignment is based on the ATC classification index with DDDs valid from January 2011. The ATC index with DDDs, which is important for the understanding of these guidelines, is available on request from the WHO Collaborating Centre for Drug Statistics Methodology (order form, see Annex II). A searchable version of the index is available on our website www.whocc.no. The ATC index with DDDs is updated annually. Please be aware that Spanish versions of the ATC/DDD publications also are available. An integrated version of the Guidelines for ATC classification and DDD assignment and ATC classification index with DDDs is available on internet. For further information, please see our website: www.whocc.no. All comments connected to the assignment of DDDs are given in shadowed boxes in the various chapters to each ATC group. We hope this book will prove helpful to the users of the ATC/DDD system. Suggested improvements can be addressed to the WHO Centre in Oslo.

  • Activity of Vancomycin Combined with Linezolid Against Clinical Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus Strains
    Basic research Activity of vancomycin combined with linezolid against clinical vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus strains Gulseren Aktas Department of Medical Microbiology, Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul University, Corresponding author: Istanbul, Turkey Gulseren Aktas Department of Medical Submitted: 16 April 2019 Microbiology Accepted: 12 July 2019 Faculty of Medicine Istanbul University Arch Med Sci Istanbul, Turkey DOI: https://doi.org/10.5114/aoms.2020.96400 Phone: 090 212 Copyright © 2020 Termedia & Banach 4142000/32417 Fax: 090 212 4142037 E-mail: Abstract [email protected] Introduction: Because multi-drug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria have been isolated frequently worldwide and are difficult to treat, alternative treatment choices are required. Combination antibiotherapies have a distinct advan- tage over monotherapies in terms of their broad spectrum and synergistic effect. In the present study, it was aimed to investigate the in vitro activity of vancomycin combined with linezolid against clinical vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) strains with high-level aminoglycoside resistance. Material and methods: A total of 30 randomly selected clinical VRE strains were studied. Susceptibility to agents tested was investigated using broth microdilution assay. The inoculum of strain was adjusted to approximately 5 × 105 CFU/ml in the wells. The results were interpreted in accordance with Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines. In vitro activities of anti biotics in combination were assessed using the broth microcheckerboard technique. The fractional inhibitory concentration indexes (FICIs) were inter- preted as follows: synergism, FICI ≤ 0.5; additive/indifference, FICI ≤ 0.5 – ≤ 4; antagonism, FICI > 4. Results: All strains were resistant to vancomycin and susceptible to linezolid. The MIC50,90 and MICrange values of antimicrobials were 512, 512, and 512–1024 µg/ ml for vancomycin; 2, 2, and 2–4 µg/ml for linezolid.

  • Pharmacokinetics of Salicylic Acid Following Intravenous and Oral Administration of Sodium Salicylate in Sheep

The aim of this study was to know the pharmacokinetic parameters of salicylic acid in New Zealand sheep after administration of multiple intravenous and oral doses of sodium salicylate (sodium salt of salicylic acid). Results of the study suggest that the half-life of the drug was shorter and clearance was faster after intravenous administration as compared to that of the oral administration. The minimum effective concentration required to produce analgesia in humans (16.8 µL) was achieved in sheep for about 0.17 h in the current study after intravenous administration of 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight of sodium salicylate. However, oral administration of these doses failed to achieve the minimum effective concentration as mentioned above. This study is of significance as it adds valuable information on pharmacokinetics and its variation due to breed, species, age, gender and environmental conditions.

Both therapeutic regimens proved effective, but in patients treated with tetracycline both clinical symptoms and fever disappeared significantly more quickly. Likewise, when those patients who began treatment within the first 72 hours of illness are considered the febrile period had a significantly shorter duration in the group treated with tetracycline. One patient was switched to tetracycline because there was no improvement of clinical manifestations, with persistence of fever, myalgias, and prostration, after receiving eight days of treatment with erythromycin. These results suggest that tetracyclines are superior to erythromycin in the treatment of Mediterranean spotted fever. copyright.

Introduction Leishmania organisms are intracellular protozoan parasites that are transmitted to a mammalian host by the bite of the female phlebotomine sandfly. The main clinical syndromes are visceral leishmaniasis (VL), cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL), and mucosal leishmaniasis (ML). VL is the result of systemic infection and is progressive over months or years. Clinical manifestations include fever, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, and bone marrow involvement with pancytopenia. VL is fatal if untreated. Liposomal amphotericin B (AmBisome®) was FDA approved in 1997 for the treatment of VL. CL usually presents as one or more skin ulcers at the site of the sandfly bite. In most cases, the ulcer spontaneously resolves within several months, leaving a scar. The goals of therapy are to accelerate healing, decrease morbidity and decrease the risk of relapse, local dissemination, or mucosal dissemination. There are no FDA approved drugs for the treatment of CL. Rarely, CL disseminates from the skin to the naso-oropharyngeal mucosa, resulting in ML. ML can also develop some time after CL spontaneous ulcer healing. The risk of ML is thought to be highest with CL caused by the subgenus Viannia. ML is characterized in the medical literature as progressive with destruction of nasal and pharyngeal structures, and death may occur due to complicating aspiration pneumonia. There are no FDA approved drugs for the treatment of ML. Paladin Therapeutics submitted NDA 204, 684 seeking approval of miltefosine for the treatment of VL caused by L.

(May 2009) Charlene Myriah Dvoracek, B.S., Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Jaime Grunlan Layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly has proven to be a powerful technique for assembling thin films with a variety of properties including electrochromic, molecular sensing, oxygen barrier, and antimicrobial. LbL involves the deposition of alternating cationic and anionic ingredients from solution, utilizing the electrostatic charges to develop multilayer films. The present work incorporates cationic antimicrobial agents into the positively-charged layers of LbL assemblies. When these thin films are exposed to a humid environment, the antimicrobial molecules readily diffuse out and prevent bacterial growth. The influence of exposure time, testing temperature, secondary ingredients and number of bilayers on antimicrobial efficacy is evaluated here. Additionally, film growth and microstructure are analyzed to better understand the behavior of these films.
