Voluntary adverse drug reaction (ADR) reporting is fundamental to medical drug safety surveillance; however, substantial under-reporting exists and is the main limitation of the system. At this time, hospital accepts consumer reports. The World Health Organization estimates that in 2005 and as well as 2019-2021 pneumococcal infections were responsible for the death of 1.6 million human worldwide. Pneumonia, the lungs become filled with fluid and inflamed, leading to breathing difficulties. For some people, breathing problems can become severe enough to require treatment at the hospital with oxygen or even a ventilator. The pneumonia that COVID-19 causes tends to take hold in both lungs. Moxifloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic, is used for the treatment of respiratory tract, pelvic inflammatory disease, skin, and intra-abdominal infections. Its safety profile is considered favorable in most reviews but has been challenged with respect to rare but potentially fatal toxicities. The most common adverse drug reaction (ADR) constipation is nausea, vomiting, fatigue, alopecia, drowsiness, myelosuppression, skin reactions, anorexia, mucositis, diarrhoea and Medicines that have been particularly implicated in adverse drug reaction-related hospital admissions include anti-platelets, anticoagulants, cytotoxics, immunosuppressant’s, diuretics, anti-diabetics and antibiotics.","PeriodicalId":20945,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacology and Pharmacodynamics","volume":"60 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88513725","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 study is a prospective, observational evaluation of the ADRs which was conducted over a period of 1 year. During the study period 59 cancer patients receiving chemotherapy were analysed from which a total of 79 ADRs were identified and collected which occurred during and after the cancer treatment. Maximum cases of ADR recorded in the study are mucositis, respiratory disorder, neuropathy, constipation, itching etc. On causality assessment, it was observed that nearly 92% ADRs are considered as possible, 6% are probable and 2% are unlikely. Although, the reporting of ADR is very minimal by the healthcare professionals, this study focuses on the various common ADR associated with the use of anti-cancer agents in the treatment of cancer. The information from the study might be helpful in identifying and minimizing preventable ADRs, while enhancing the knowledge of the healthcare professionals to deal with them more efficiently. Hence the study was done to record and analyze the pattern of adverse drug reaction from oncology drugs.","PeriodicalId":20945,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacology and Pharmacodynamics","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84218748","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}

Bacterial culture was the first method to study human microbiota in 1860. Louis pasteur was the first to propagate bacteria on culture media. The culture media provides the essential nutrients such as carbohydrates, protein, vitamins and some growth factors for the proper development of bacteria. Nowadays, these growth medias are prepared by different expensive chemical ingredients in laboratories for research experiments, which ultimately makes our experiments expensive. Instead of using high-cost culture media, fruit waste material could prove to be a good alternate source for the production of low-cost media. The waste generated in household practices and kitchen includes vegetables and fruit waste. It is waste that almost every house generates every day. It can serve as a good source of nutrients and vitamins for in microorganisms. Hence these materials can be used to formulate solid media for the growth of bacteria. In the current study waste material like mango peels, banana peels, lemon peels and ground nut shell have been included to formulate the media. This material was collected from kitchen waste and vegetable market. Comparing the growth of organism (lactobacillus bulgaricus) standard commercial media and fruit waste with agar, it was found that the media prepared from fruit waste serves as a good and inexpensive source of nutrients for many bacteria. Thus, it can good be feather and used commercially for isolation and cultivation of various microorganisms.","PeriodicalId":20945,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacology and Pharmacodynamics","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77316599","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's a semi-synthetic medication with antibacterial properties against a wide range of germs and excellent intracellular penetration. Bacterial resistance can take many different forms, although the ribosomal or plasmid pathways are the most common. Propionibacterium acnes has gained antibiotic resistance in most cases due to an ARNr mutation. Doxycycline has anti-inflammatory effects that manifest themselves through a variety of methods. Doxycycline is quickly absorbed and practically fully absorbed in the GI tract. Food does not affect absorption. With 90% of the molecule attached, it has a strong but fragile affinity for proteins. The majority of tissues and the extravascular compartment are swiftly absorbed. The most common method of excretion is through the bile canal. The bile channel is used for elimination. Tubular reabsorption in the kidney slows down. If you have acne, the daily dosage should be between 50 and 100 micrograms. Despite the scarcity of high-quality assays, there is widespread professional support for their use. It is also effective for rosacea at the same dosage. Doxycycline is being used as a backup antibiotic for chlamydial and mycoplasma urethritis. Additional diseases that can be treated as primary or secondary alternatives include treponematoses, brucellosis, pastoralizes, borreliosis, rickettsiosis, and cholera. Some non-infectious illnesses have been treated with doxycycline. The most common side effects are those that affect the digestive system. Esophageal poisoning has been treated with tablets and plenty of water.","PeriodicalId":20945,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacology and Pharmacodynamics","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87371639","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}

Minoxidil and himplasia may be co-prescribed along with sitagliptin to treat hypertension and BPH respectively. As such no information is available regarding the interaction taking place between sitagliptin, minoxidil and himplasia. Hence the present work has been aimed to find out the interaction with among the above said drugs in rodent model, since such studies cannot be performed in humans. Methods: Studies were conducted in normal and alloxan induced diabetic rats with oral doses of 9mg/kg B.W of sitagliptin, 9mg/kg B.W of minoxidil and 54mg /k g of himplasia and their combinations with adequate washout periods in between the treatments. Blood samples were collected at regular time intervals in rats through retro orbital puncture. All the blood samples were analyzed for blood glucose by GOD/POD method in pharmacodynamic studies and the serum sitagliptin concentrations were estimated by UV Spectrophotometry. Serum insulin was estimated by chemiluminescence assay. Results: Sitagliptin showed hypoglycemic action in both normal and diabetic rats and the peak action was observed at 6 h. Hyperglycemia was observed with minoxidil at 1st hour, hypoglycemia was observed with himplasia at 4th hour and the combination of minoxidil and himplasia showed biphasic response in blood glucose levels. The same responses were observed even in combination with sitagliptin. The serum sitagliptin concentrations were not altered by the co-administration of drugs. Serum insulin levels were inhibited by administration of minoxidil and potentiated by himplasia and initial reduction followed by surge observed with combination of minoxidil and himplasia. The similar responses were observed when co-administered with sitagliptin. Conclusion: Thus it could be concluded that the combination of minoxidil and himplasia should be taken with care for clinical benefits in diabetic patients. However, further studies should be carried out in non rodent species and in clinical settings are warranted.","PeriodicalId":20945,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacology and Pharmacodynamics","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84303053","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}

Real time stability studies data from 2018-2022 were obtained from selected pharmaceutical industries located within North Central, Nigeria. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) of the data obtained for the real time stability studies was carried out using IBM SPSS Statistics Version 23. The results obtained showed that both chemical and microbiological parameters checked were within the pre-set specifications despite the changes in the results as the storage increases due to environmental factors such as: temperature, humidity, light, exposure to oxygen and container –closure system used for the packaging of the drug product. Pathogenic bacteria such as: Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium and Pseudomonas aeruginosa recorded 0.00 cfu/ml and the values obtained for total viable aerobic mesophilic bacteria plate count and fungi were within the pre-set specifications while Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans were sensitive to Methylated Spirit. There was a significant difference in the data analysed (P<0.05). The implication of this study is that the drug product may not be stable if the shelf life increases beyond what was stated for them. Hence, these results provided clues to how the quality of the product changes with time under different environmental factors (temperature, relative humidity, exposure to oxygen and light) and the interaction between the drug product and container-closure system used. This study suggests the need for pharmaceutical industries to continuously carry out stability studies of drug products in order to know the changes that may likely occur during the storage and to establish the shelf life of the drug product.","PeriodicalId":20945,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacology and Pharmacodynamics","volume":"360 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78127231","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}

GBS can cause symptoms that last for a few weeks to several years. Most people recover fully, but some have permanent nerve damage. some people have died of GBS. Several things are known to tigger GBS. About two-thirds of people with GBS had diarrhea or a respiratory illness several weeks before developing symptoms. Infection with campylobacter jejuni, which causes diarrhea, is one of the most common risk factors for GBS. People can develop GBS after some other infections, such as flu, cytomegalovirus, Epstein barr virus, and zika virus. Very rarely, people have developed GBS in the days or weeks after receiving certain vaccines. It can be caused by campylobacter infection that is diagnosed when a laboratory tests detect campylobacter bacteria in stool, body tissue, or fluids. The test could be a culture that isolates the bacteria or a rapid diagnostic test that detects genetic material of the bacteria.
