Kommentiert [VR17]: Applicant’s reply to NL comment VAR DE/H/4407/001-002/008: modified accordingly In combination wiht with non-selective monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOs) (or within 2 weeks of their withdrawal) due to risk of paroxysmal hypertension and possibly fatal hyperthermia (see section 4.5). Biorphen should not be given to patients wiht severe hyperthyroidism. 4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use Arterial blood pressure should be monitored during treatment. Biorphen should be given with caution to patients with: • diabetes, • arterial hypertension, • aneurysma, • uncontrolled hyperthyroidism, • coronary heart disease and chronic heart disease, • bradycardia, • partial heart block, • tachycardia, • arrhythmias, • angina pectoris (phenylephrine can precipitate or exacerbate angina in patients with coronary artery disease and history of angina), • non-severe peripheral vascular insufficiency, • closed angle glaucoma. Biorphen may induce a decrease in cardiac output. Therefore, it should be administered with extreme caution in patients with atherosclerosis in the elderly and in patients with impaired cerebral or coronary circulation. In patients with reduced cardiac output or coronary vascular disease, vital organ functions should be closely monitored and dose reduction should be considered when systemic blood pressure is near the lower end of the target range. Kommentiert [VR18]: According to Day 30 Comments from the CMS SE., the Applicant would like to shift the sentence and modify it accordingly . 3 Page 4 Biorphen 10 mg/ml 1.3.1 Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) In patients with severe heart failure or cardiogenic shock, Biorphen may cause a worsening of heart failure as a result of the induced vasoconstriction (increased afterload). Patients with medical conditions such as decreased cardiac output or peripheral coronary artery disease should have frequent monitoring of vital body functions and lower systemic blood pressure boundary should be considered as a criterion for dose reduction or discontinuation of Biorphen. Particular attention should be paid to phenylephrine injection to avoid extravasation, since this may cause tissue necrosis. Lower doses may be required in patients with renal impairment. Higher doses may be required in patients with liver cirrhosis. The administration of this drug simultaneously with the following medicines is not recommended because of the risk of vasoconstriction and / or hypertensive crisis associated with

J Forensic Sci Criminol 1(3): 301. doi: 10.15744/2348- 9804.1.301 Received Date: September 27, 2013 Accepted Date: December 11, 2013 Published Date: December 16, 2013 Abstract A small set of amphetamines has been analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS) using a microplasma photoionization (MPPI) soft-ionization source. This plasma-based, wavelength selectable ionization source enables ionization of the test compounds and their corresponding derivatives at ~8-12 eV that is a softer alternative to electron ionization at 70 eV. Three plasma gases were used in this study: Xe plasma that emits photons at resonance lines of 9.57 eV and 8.44 eV; Kr plasma at 10.63 eV and 10.02 eV, and Ar plasma at 11.82 eV and 11.61 eV. Derivatization of the test compounds with trifluoroacetic anhydride and α-methoxy-α-(trifluoromethyl)-phenylacetyl pyrazole was evaluated because the MPPI mass spectra of the underivatized amphetamines yield primarily iminium ions, which make the identification of the test compounds by GC-TOFMS inconclusive.

    Green Chemistry View Article Online PAPER View Journal | View Issue Synthesis of pharmaceutical drugs from cardanol derived from cashew nut shell liquid†‡ Cite this: Green Chem., 2019, 21, 1043 Yiping Shi, Paul C. J. Kamer § and David J. Cole-Hamilton * Cardanol from cashew nut shell liquid extracted from cashew nut shells was successfully converted into various useful pharmaceutical drugs, such as norfenefrine, rac-phenylephrine, etilefrine and fenoprofene. 3-Vinylphenol, the key intermediate for the synthesis of these drugs, was synthesised from cardanol by ethenolysis to 3-non-8-enylphenol followed by isomerising ethenolysis. The metathesis reaction worked very well using DCM, but the greener solvent, 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran, also gave very similar results. Hydroxyamination of 3-vinylphenol with an iron porphyrin catalyst afforded norfenefrine in over 70% yield. Methylation and ethylation of norfenefrine afforded rac-phenylephrine and etilefrine respectively. A sequence of C–O coupling, isomerising metathesis and selective methoxycarbonylation afforded feno- profene in good yield. A comparison of the routes described in this paper with some standard literature Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. syntheses of 3-vinylphenol and of the drug molecules shows significant environmental advantages in terms of precursors, yields, number of steps, conditions and the use of catalysts. The Atom Economy of our processes is generally similar or significantly superior to those of the literature processes mainly Received 7th December 2018, because the side products produced during synthesis of 3-vinylphenol (1-octeme, 1,4-cyclohexadiene Accepted 15th January 2019 and propene) are easily separable and of commercial value, especially as they are bio-derived.

PRODUCT MONOGRAPH NAME OF DRUG Pr AMATINE® (midodrine hydrochloride) 2.5, 5 & 10 mg Tablets Therapeutic Classification Vasopressor ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY AMATINE (midodrine hydrochloride) is a prodrug, that is, the therapeutic effect of orally administered midodrine is due to and directly related to its conversion after absorption to desglymidodrine which differs chemically from methoxamine only by lacking in a methyl group on the α carbon of the side chain. Desglymidodrine is an α1-adrenoceptor stimulant with little effect on cardiac β-adrenoceptors. The actions of desglymidodrine on the cardiovascular and other organ systems are essentially identical with those of other alpha1-adrenoceptor stimulants, such as phenylephrine or methoxamine. The most prominent effects of midodrine are on the cardiovascular system, consisting of a rise in standing, sitting and supine systolic and diastolic blood pressures in patients with orthostatic hypotension. Standing systolic pressure is increased by 15 to 30 mm Hg at 1 hour after a 10 mg dose of AMATINE, with some effects persisting for another 2 to 3 hours. The increase in blood pressure is due almost entirely to an increase in peripheral resistance. AMATINE has no clinically significant effect on standing or supine pulse rate in patients with autonomic failure.
