Inflammatory response was induced by topical application of croton oil dissolved in suitable vehicle on the rat ear. After 6hrs, the ear was exised, weighed and the increase in weight relative to controls evaluated. Extract of V.A. when co applied with croton oil to the rat ear produced a reduction in the inflammatory response produced when croton oil alone was applied. The extract produced 67.10 ± 2% reduction of the inflammatory response produced by croton oil alone. This was however, lower than the 71.1 ± 2% reduction of the inflammatory response produced by acetyl salicylic acid, a standard anti-inflammatory agent. This finding suggests that extract of V.A. exhibits antiinflammatory activity and may explain the usefulness of the leaves of this plant in the treatment of inflammatory disease conditions by traditional medical practitioners.","PeriodicalId":16719,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pharmaceutical and Allied Sciences","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74647610","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}

Poor prescription practice has been shown to be associated with high cost, side effects and proven lack of desired pharmaceutical benefit. The purpose of the present study was to analyse the patterns of prescriptions using WHO core drug use indicators and some additional indices with a view for identifying intervention strategies. A retrospective cross-sectional review of 2,510 prescriptions issued to patients and randomly selected from 20 Catholic Church-owned primary health care facilities in the Northern provinces of Abuja, Jos and Kaduna between January and December, 2006 were studied. The average number of drugs per prescription was 5.49 (range: 3.10 – 7.20). Drug prescription in generic name and from the PHC essential drug list was 61.29 and 66.96% respectively. Injection and antibiotic prescription rates were 60.96% and 76.49% respectively, while in 58.96% were diagnosis made. These facilities were characterised by poly-pharmacy, inappropriate injection and antibiotic prescription, poor prescription in generic names as well as poor use of essential drug list, and these were widespread. Capacity building programme on appropriate drug prescription and the institutional use of appropriate standard treatment guidelines and drug formularies are therefore advocated.","PeriodicalId":16719,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pharmaceutical and Allied Sciences","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76163778","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}
