Suspension of the laxative, magnesium oxide is reported to hydrolyze ester-type drugs. Because several angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors have ester bonds in their structure, magnesium oxide may cause incompatibility when suspended with an ACE inhibitor. The purpose of this study was to clarify the effect of magnesium oxide on the stability of eight kinds of ACE inhibitors in the simple suspension method. When suspended together with magnesium oxide in hot water (55 ℃ ), temocapril, delapril, captopril, and benazepril showed a significant decrease in concentration compared to when suspended alone. Enalapril, trandolapril, quinapril, and imidapril, however, showed no significant decrease. When temocapril was suspended with magnesium oxide, the concentration of its hydrolysis product temocaprilat was increased in a time-dependent manner. In addition, when temocapril was suspended in a carbonate-sodium bicarbonate buffer (pH 10.6), temocapril degradation was slower than with magnesium oxide, suggesting that the temocapril decomposition is not a simple hydrolysis caused only by pH but one requiring the presence of magnesium oxide as a catalyst. Ester structures in ACE inhibitors are intended to improve gastrointestinal absorption. Therefore, the condition of several ACE inhibitors kept in suspension with magnesium oxide causes degradation of these drugs, inhibiting their absorption and pharmacological effects. It may be necessary for pharmacists to suggest to physicians that their prescrip-tions be changed to non-degradable ACE inhibitors and/or laxatives other than magnesium oxide. liquid chromatography:","PeriodicalId":14574,"journal":{"name":"Iryo Yakugaku (Japanese Journal of Pharmaceutical Health Care and Sciences)","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85988893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After the chemotherapy, the patient ʼ s liver function improved rapidly, so the dose of PTX was increased to 75 % . However, since febrile neutropenia (FN) occurred, PTX was continued at a dose of 50 % thereafter. As a result, the patient was able to continue chemotherapy without FN.

The uptake of bisoprolol into PC/PS liposomes was significantly greater than that into PC liposomes. In the present study, we prepared the 5-component liposomes containing PC, PS, phosphatidylethanolamine, sphingomyelin, and cholesterol, and compared the uptake characteristics of lipophilic organic cations into the liposomes with that into porcine kidney LLC-PK 1 cells. The uptake of flecainide was significantly inhibited by lipophilic diphenhydramine (DPH) both in 5-component liposomes and in LLC-PK 1 cells, but not by hydrophilic tetraethylammonium. The 50 % inhibitory concentration (IC 50 value) for the DPH-sensitive uptake of flecainide was 1.08 mM and 657 µ M in the 5-component liposomes and LLC-PK 1 cells, respectively. In addition, the uptake of the various 11 cationic compounds both into the 5-component liposomes and into LLC-PK 1 cells was significantly correlated with their lipophilicity (Log D) values and their polar surface area (Log PSA) values. Collectively, the uptake characteristics of lipophilic cations in the 5-component liposomes was considerably similar to that of the postulated H + /lipophilic cation antiport system in LLC-PK 1 cells.","PeriodicalId":14574,"journal":{"name":"Iryo Yakugaku (Japanese Journal of Pharmaceutical Health Care and Sciences)","volume":"65 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78707764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we inves-tigated the impact of full-time pharmacist interventions on antimicrobial stewardship pre- (August 2017 – July 2018) and post- (August 2018 – July 2019) intervention. The total number of consultations with the full-time pharmacist increased significantly at 71 and 252 consultations pre- and post-intervention, respectively. There was no significant difference in the intervention, and a total of 69 (pass rate 85.5 % ) and 230 (83.5 % ) prescription improvement proposals were made pre- and post-intervention, respectively ( P = 0.852). There was no difference in 30-day mortality pre- and post-intervention. Additionally, as compared to the period from August 2017 to July 2018, that is, before the intervention, Antimicrobial Use Density (AUD) / Days of Therapy (DOT) for carbapenem antibiotics decreased from 0.73 to 0.58 during the intervention period ( P = 0.004). Based on these results, we suggest that the implementation of aggressive consultations and interventions by the full-time pharmacist is useful for promoting the appropriate treatment.","PeriodicalId":14574,"journal":{"name":"Iryo Yakugaku (Japanese Journal of Pharmaceutical Health Care and Sciences)","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73280308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
