Researchers have firmly established the connection between drug-related problems, which include increased morbidity and mortality rates and the heightened utilization of healthcare services. While previous studies have focused on methodologies for identifying potentially inappropriate medications in Bulgaria, further research is warranted to explore the applicability of the widely recognized EU(7)- PIM List. Materials and methods : A prospective review was conducted on patient prescriptions aligned with the National Health and Insurance Fund, explicitly focusing on patients aged over 65 years from a single pharmacy in Veliko Turnovo City, Bulgaria. The review spanned from November 2022 to April 2023. The prescriptions analyzed in this study exclusively comprised medications covered by the insurance fund. The pharmacy manager provided patient prescription data in a coded form, which included information on the patients’ age, corresponding medications, and accompanying ICD codes. Results : The study analyzed a sample of 255 patients. Healthcare providers prescribed 2,623 medications, and 61.96% of the patients had polypharmacy, taking more than five medications daily. Among the study population, 67% with polypharmacy had at least one PIM based on the EU (7)-PIM List criteria. In total, 173 potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) were identified. The main PIMs were categorized into four groups: alimentary tract and metabolism, blood and blood-forming organs, cardiovascular system (CVS), and nervous system. Most PIMs (75.72%) were in the ATC cardiovascular system. Within the CVS category, 11 PIMs were associated with digoxin intake and 11 with antiarrhythmics such as propafenone, flecainide, and amiodarone. In addition, trimetazidine was linked to 9 PIMs, and centrally acting antiadrenergic agents had 22 PIMs, with moxonidine being the most prevalent (n=16). Peripherally acting agents were linked to 22 PIMs, primarily doxazosin. The study identified 24 PIMs related to diuretics, specifically spironolactone, and 18 PIMs related to selective calcium channel blockers such as verapamil. The antithrombotic agent category had the highest share, with 30 identified PIMs, including acenocoumarol, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, and apixaban. Furthermore, the examination of ICD codes confirmed that most PIMs occurred within CVS, with patients having ICD I11.0 and ICD I11.9 being associated with 40 and 47 PIMs, respectively. Conclusion : This study highlights many PIMs among patients with cardiovascular diseases. Using the EU (7)-PIM List as a pilot study demonstrates its effectiveness in managing adult patients’ conditions. Given the significant role of PIMs in deprescribing strategies for older patients with polypharmacy, there is a need for prescribers, educators, and drug regulat","PeriodicalId":20086,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacia","volume":"59 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136068368","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}

The draft of the National Health Strategy (NHS) 2021–2030 reports on their wide distribution, as well as on the insufficient knowledge, skills and motivation for their prevention and control. The purpose of this review is to address the prevention of cardiovascular disease, which is a significant problem worldwide. Prevention goals for patients with established cardiovascular disease and those at high risk include smoking cessation, healthy eating, physical activity, and lowering body mass index. There are various methods that are part of health promotion to reduce CVD risks. These methods include motivational interviewing, non-pharmacological means, the use of certain medications for CVD prevention, as well as physical activity. Strategies for effective primary prevention refer to engaging the patient to change their lifestyle and identifying risk factors, while secondary prevention is aimed at activities to detect the disease early and to slow down its progression. It is necessary to create a strategy for timely preventive actions with a view to preventing the negative influence of risk factors and improving people‘s heart health.","PeriodicalId":20086,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacia","volume":"22 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136236032","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}

An example of such a plant is the woolly-flowered milkvetch ( Astragalus dasyanthus Pall.). This perennial herbaceous medicinal plant belongs to the Fabaceae family and is listed in the Red Book of Europe. Astragalus dasyanthus Pall. is cultivated for pharmaceutical purposes. The herb of a plant exhibits sedative, cardiotonic, hypotensive, and diuretic effects, as well as hepatoprotective and antioxidant properties. The herb of Astragalus dasyanthus Pall. contains polysaccharides (arabinose, bassorin), flavonoids (quercetin, kaempferol), glycyrrhizin, starch, and triterpenoid saponins, which contribute to the broad spectrum of the plant’s pharmacological activity. Continuing the investigation of this plant, it is advisable to study the qualitative and quantitative composition of organic and fatty acids. By the HPLC method, the following organic acids were identified and determined quantitative content: tartaric (8.68 mg/g), citric (7.69 mg/g), oxalic (6.90 mg/g), succinic (5.01 mg/g), isocitric (1.30 mg/g), and malic (0.49 mg/g). The saturated and unsaturated fatty acids were determined by the GC/MS method. The Astragalus dasyanthus Pall. herb contained seven fatty acids. High concentrations of fatty acids such as pentadecanoic acid (4.16 mg/g), linoleic acid (1.73 mg/g), and stearic acid (1.14 mg/g) predominate in woolly-flowered milkvetch. The character of many processes in which these organic and fatty acids take part may be associated with the medicinal properties of this plant pursuant to its use in medicine and, therefore, may contribute to the insight into its therapeutic properties.","PeriodicalId":20086,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacia","volume":"2 12","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135217720","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}

This observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in September-October 2022 at the Netral Plus Indonesia Foundation and Malang Islamic Hospital. The study included 55 HIV/AIDS patients, and the Spearman correlation test was used to analyze the data. There was no significant relationship between knowledge level, side effects, and adherence to ART treatment (p = 0.959; p = 0.719). However, family support was found to be significantly related to adherence to ART treatment (p = 0.004).

We believe that the reason for this is the inaccurate strategy of inhibiting target molecules involved in the pathogenesis of the disease. The leading cause of death in COVID-19 is the cytokine storm, which is caused by an NLRP3 inflammasome hyperreaction. WHO recommends for the outpatients treatment drugs blocking the replication of SARS-CoV-2. However, viral load and replication are not directly related to NLRP3 inflammasome hyperreactivity. This also explains the partial success of the WHO favorite paxlovid to reduce hospitalizations (51%). For hospital treatment, WHO suggests antibodies against the interleukin-6 receptor and Janus kinase (JAK) inhibition. Although important, IL-6 is one of dozens of cytokines elevated as a consequence of cytokine storm. The JAK inhibitor baricitinib inhibited the effect of not only IL-6 but also other elevated cytokines. But if the NLRP3 inflammasome is inhibited, the cytokines will not be elevated, and there will be no need for baricitinib. All medicines recommended by the WHO are distinguished by their very high prices. Our therapeutic strategy is based on inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 entry into the cell and inhibition of the NLRP3 inflammasome. We offer two readily available, cheap and well-known medications - bromhexine hydrochloride and colchicine. The many studies on the treatment of COVID-19 so far have not produced the expected result. The devil is buried in the details. For bromhexine, the reason is the way and its late application. Bromhexine is most effective when given prophylactically or started by inhalation after contact with a person with COVID-19. Its earliest possible application is crucial for its effect. Increased doses of colchicine are necessary for COVID-19 treatment due to the fact that it accumulates in leukocytes, and this leads to inhibition of NLRP3. The high doses we administer have been given widely in the past and are completely safe. Our highest dose is about 5 times lower per kg of weight than the lowest severe toxic dose of colchicine described. Our results show about a 5-fold decrease in hospital mortality and almost complete prevention of hospitalizations if outpatients are treated with inhaled bromhexine and colchicine.","PeriodicalId":20086,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacia","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135569203","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}
