To explore advances at the intersection of health and technology and how pharmacy can embrace emerging modalities moving forward, the California Pharmacists Association (CPhA) hosted a Digital Health Conference on October 12 and 13, 2019, in Garden Grove, California.\u0000\u0000This conference provided an opportunity for pharmacists to gain a deeper understanding of the digital health ecosystem, explore opportunities, and share perspectives for leveraging digital health products to improve patient care. This commentary provides an overview of new and emerging digital health technologies, and a summary of the conference. It is not a comprehensive or systematic review of the field of digital health, rather its scope is limited to the key concepts and perspectives shared at the conference by presenters and participants. Table 1 provides information summarizing what is already known about this subject and what is added by this commentary.\u0000\u0000During the conference, pharmacists were introduced to definitions and concepts in digital health, discussed opportunities and challenges related to integration of digital health into existing health care infrastructures (including legal and regulatory frameworks, pharmacy practice models and payment), and explored educational needs to prepare pharmacists for their evolving roles. As digital health technologies are being integrated within the healthcare system, this conference aimed to focus on opportunities specific to pharmacy.","PeriodicalId":15502,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Contemporary Pharmacy Practice","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46965732","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}

Objective: The present work aimed at preparing quick release films of tizanidine HClwith the purpose of developing a dosage form for a very quick onset of action, which is beneficial in managingspasms and increased muscle tone, aiding in the enhancement of bioavailability, and is very convenient for administration, without the problem of swallowing and using water. Methods: The films of tizanidine hydrochloridewere prepared by using polymers such as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), aseither single polymer or in combination of two, by a solvent casting method. The concentration of Sodium alginate,Glycerol, Tween 80 were kept constant in all formulations. They were evaluated for physical characteristics such asuniformity of weight, thickness, folding endurance, drug content uniformity, surface pH, percentage elongation, andtensile strength, and gave satisfactory results. The formulations were subjected to disintegration, in vitro drug release tests. Results: A marked increase in the dissolution rate was exhibited by fast-dissolving films of Tizanidinehydrochloride containing HPMC as a polymer, when compared to conventional tablets. The formulation ‘F3’ wasfound to be optimized formulation. Conclusions: Fast dissolving films of tizanidine hydrochloride can be considered suitable for clinical use to relieve diplegia, back pain and injuries of spine, where a quicker onset of action for a dosage form is desirable along with the convenience of administration.","PeriodicalId":15502,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Contemporary Pharmacy Practice","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73236975","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}

But it seems particularly serious whenrelated to cardiac functions. The purpose of study is to investigate the prescription trend among the prescribers forcardiovascular diseases. Prescription of cardiac patients contain medications that are necessary to manage thecardiac complication and also consist of medication that prevent the patient from further problems like aspirin is use to prevent myocardial infarction. Required data was extracted from the prescriptions and then evaluated. Collected data was categorized on the basis of generics prescribed to the different cardiac patients. Then found out how many times a generic was prescribed. Statistical analysis was done using Microsoft Excel. After evaluation of the prescriptions it was seen that aspirin is most important drug in the prescriptions of heart diseases. It is the mostly prescribed medicine in cardiac patient and it was found in 146 prescriptions out of 150. And least prescribedgenerics were simvastatin and trimetazidine dihydrochloride. We extracted brands from the prescriptions and thentabulated against number of repetitions, then calculate the percentage of repetition of a brand, by dividing repetitions to total collected number of prescriptions, that were 150. it was found that most prescribed brand in heart diseases is ascard that contains aspirin. That prevent the patient from myocardial infarction and heart attack. Health practitioners and patients need to follow standard guidelines for medications to minimize further complication and to ensure a healthy nation.","PeriodicalId":15502,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Contemporary Pharmacy Practice","volume":"189 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73247569","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}

It is also foused on the selection of mucoadhesivepolymer & its activity in various combinations & ratios. The poor bioavialability & shorter half-life suffice thedevelopment of controlled release mucoadhesive formulation. Method: Mucoadhesive tablets each containing 20mg of famotidine were prepared by conventional wet granulation method employing as mucoadhesive materials. A batch of 50 tablets was prepared, in each case a blend of 1 gm of famotidine with different polymers addition indifferent strengths with required 40mg lactose as diluent achieved after titration which were then grannulated along with a solvent blend if water and ethyl alcohol. Results: The flow properties of all five batches were in between fair and passable. Hardness of tablets ranged from 6.9-8.2 kg/cm2 and the percentage friability was between 0.25-0.79 %. The drug content uniformity in the mucoadhesive tablets was 96.49-104.81%. The surface pH study was within the range from 6.7-7.4. From all formulations, over 20% of the famotidine was release within first hour of dissolution study. In the present study the formulation FT04 (tragacanth & HPMC ) has shown cumulative percent drug release of about 80.762% in 12 h. Conclusion: From the results we concluded that formulation containing famotidine with HPMC & tragacanth has given better drug release property than the other four formulations & the wash-off test has shown that this formulation (FT04) has better mucoadhesive property.","PeriodicalId":15502,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Contemporary Pharmacy Practice","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81374571","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}

A promising method for identifying and addressing medication-related problems is pharmacist provision of patient home visits. Pharmacist home visits could alleviate the burden on both patients and providers for the purposes of maintenance medication and goal-achievement assessment.\u0000\u0000Methods\u0000A pharmacist home visit program was developed utilizing social workers to identify patients who would most benefit from a pharmacist home visit. The two pharmacists met with these patients in their homes to evaluate their current medication regimens, adherence, medical condition status, and potential drug-related problems (DRPs). Upon conclusion of the home visit, the pharmacists provided a summary of findings and proposed solutions for identified drug related problems to the patient's primary care provider.\u0000\u0000Results\u0000Fourteen patients participated in pharmacist-provided home visits. During these home visits, 98 unique DRPs were identified. Drug-related problems were grouped into four categories: adherence (n=26, 27%), effectiveness (n=25, 26%), indication (n=24, 24%), and safety (n=23, 23%). Between the initial visit and the final visit, there was a resolution of 25 (26%) drug related problems.\u0000\u0000Conclusion\u0000This project demonstrated a novel referral pathway for identifying patients to participate in pharmacist-led home visits. By providing patient home visits, pharmacists were able to identify and resolve some drug-related problems, but many problems remain unresolved due, in large part, to lack of provider engagement.","PeriodicalId":15502,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Contemporary Pharmacy Practice","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43174193","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}
