One part of this plant that is claimed by the public as a treatment for vomiting blood is the bark because the stem bark contains polyphenolic compounds which are efficacious as antioxidants and sunscreens. Based on the results of the study, Dengen stem bark extract (EKBD) has been standardized and in accordance the requirements so that the extract can be formulated in pharmaceutical dosage forms, one of which is a cosmetic preparation in the form of an emulgel. This study aims to see the effect of the addition of EKBD on the physical quality of emulgel preparations and to obtain a stable emulgel product containing standardized EKBD with an accelerated storage process using variations of the gelling agent, namely carbopol 940 and CMC sodium. There are two base variations, namely the Carbopol base with a concentration of 0.25%, 0.5%, 1% with the addition of 1:1 TEA; and CMC sodium base with concentrations of 1%, 2% and 3%. Furthermore, the base and extract are combined until homogeneous. Tests include organoleptic test, pH test, viscosity test, spread ability test, adhesion test and emulsion type test. In organoleptic testing, F1 of both bases showed inhomogeneity and watery texture. In the pH test, both bases F3 did not meet the skin pH requirements. In the viscosity test, F1 on both bases was significantly different before and after storage (p<0.05). In the spread ability test, statistically, all formulas F1, F2 and F3 on both bases showed a value of p>0.05, which means there was no significant difference in the spreadability values before storage and after accelerated storage. In the adhesion test, F3 on the Carbopol base showed a significant difference (p<0.05). In the emulsion type test, both basic formulas had a oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion type. Based on the results of data analysis, the addition of EKBD affected the pH and viscosity of the EKBD emulgel and the formula that met the requirements was formula F2 based on CMC sodium, is a concentration of 2%.","PeriodicalId":21141,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacy and Technology","volume":"455 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140502586","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 in silico analysis indicated that EFA and AA exhibited physical interaction and compatibility. EFA exists in two polymorphic forms, I and II, with varying crystalline habits, where polymorph II presents better solubility and dissolution rate. Cocrystals were prepared using the solvent evaporation method by varying AA concentration and temperature. FTIR and NMR analysis confirmed the absence of chemical interaction between EFA and AA. Increasing AA concentration and temperature significantly increased the saturation solubility. DSC, XRD and SEM analysis revealed a shift in the endothermic peak of EFA, change in intensity with 2θ values, and modified surface morphology respectively. This also confirmed a polymorphic structure change in the cocrystals due to high heating rates and maximum crystallization rate. The dissolution rate of the cocrystals was enhanced by the optimized batch, which contained an intermediate concentration of AA and was subjected to the highest temperature condition, and the data fitted well with the Higuchi model of kinetics. The stability of the cocrystals was also evaluated by accelerated stability testing to determine the percentage of drug content. Thus, cocrystallization with AA proved to be a suitable approach for enhancing the dissolution characteristics and polymorphic modification of BCS II drugs, such as EFA.","PeriodicalId":21141,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacy and Technology","volume":"61 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140502929","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 difficult to get a comprehensive list of the various types of drug reactions and their corresponding drug due to many cases going unreported. There is a possibility of a cutaneous drug reaction every time a new drug is introduced into the market. While most types of drug reactions are trivial and benign, there is always a possibility of the reaction attaining a more malignant nature. The diagnosis of a CADR is more often based on a clinical examination. However, in order to understand the full scope of the reaction it must be reported and studied. The pharmacovigilance programme takes into account the spontaneous nature of the cases and employs alogical approach based on clinical characteristics, chronologic factors, and generation of a focused differential diagnosis. Using study tools like Naranjo scale and Modified Hartwig and Siegel scale, a physician can easily determine the severity and causality of the drug reaction. After compiling the data, one can determine the trend of the morphology of these CADRs, and determine the most likely drug responsible for the reaction. The data obtained in this study is useful for helping the clinician in the proper identification, approach and treatment of a patient suffering from a cutaneous adverse rug reaction.","PeriodicalId":21141,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacy and Technology","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140503194","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 purpose of this study was to identify and assess the main types of risks faced by pharmaceutical workers when dispensing medicines to teenagers. The assessment and identification of risks were carried out using the Delphi methods and a questionnaire in which 186 respondents took part (the representativeness of the sample was calculated using the statistical method). The probability of occurrence of risks and the degree of criticality of the consequences of the risk was assessed. The experts stated that the most likely event would be a teenager buying the wrong medicine (a medicine other than the one that the teenager or the persons who asked them to buy it were planning to obtain), with a different trade name, dosage, or formulation, followed by a possible conflict with the child's representatives with a request to return or exchange the medicine. Besides, highly probable events include the use of information obtained from unverified sources, including peer advice and information obtained from social networks, by the teenager. The experts named the purchase of medicines by teenagers for self-poisoning the most critical risk factor. The experts considered the risk of using psychoactive substances an event with a high degree of consequences. The experts considered the improper use of medicines by teenagers to be the least risky event. The risks were ranked using a risk matrix by the following categories: negligible, acceptable, moderate, significant, and unacceptable.","PeriodicalId":21141,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacy and Technology","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140503193","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 mobile phase employed a combination of methanol and phosphate buffer (0.1% orthophosphoric acid in water, pH 3.5) in a ratio of 30:70 (v/v). The flow rate was set at 0.2mL/min, and the detection wavelength for analysis was 230nm. All these conditions resulted in optimum chromatographic separation. This developed method of UPLC took less than 4 minutes to separate this mixture. The detection limits for two medications were determined to be 0.45µg/mL for tenofovir and 0.26µg/mL for amoxicillin. The calibration plots of both substances exhibited satisfactory linearity within the concentration range of 1.0 - 2.0 µg/mL. Remarkably, the method demonstrated excellent performance with high percentage recoveries ranging from 96.8% to 102.92% and low percentage relative standard deviation (%RSD) values below 2%.
