The assessment encompasses Drug-Drug Interactions, Adverse Drug Effects, Drug Dosage, and Alternative Therapies, each comprising 20 questions, totaling 80 questions. Responses from ChatGPT were compared against standard answers, generating textual and chart scores. Textual score was computed by relating correct answers to the total questions within each category, while chart score involved the total correct answers multiplied by the chart-type questions. ChatGPT exhibited distinct performance rates: 30% for Drug-Drug Interactions, 65% for Adverse Drug Effects, 35% for Drug Dosage, and an impressive 85% for Alternative Therapies. While Alternative Therapies displayed high accuracy, challenges arose in accurately addressing Drug Dosage and Drug-Drug Interactions. Conclusion: The study underscores the complexity of pharmacy-related inquiries and the necessity for AI model enhancement. Despite promising accuracy in certain categories, like Alternative Therapies, improvements are crucial for Drug Dosage and Drug-Drug Interactions. The findings emphasize the need for ongoing AI model development to optimize integration into community pharmacy settings.","PeriodicalId":508564,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacia","volume":"195 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140483981","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 study aimed to develop a nanoemulsion gel (NEG) for topical PHCl delivery. A meticulously formulated nanoemulsion (NE) encapsulated with clove oil, Tween 20, and polyethylene glycol 400 emerged as the standout candidate (NE3) due to its exceptional stability, resilience, and favorable drug loading. NE3 exhibited a remarkable globule size of 14.57 nm, a low polydispersity index (PDI) of 0.282, and a stabilizing zeta potential of −19.89 mV. The subsequent formulation of PHCl-NEG displayed desired rheological and spreadability properties for topical application. Ex-vivo skin retention and permeation studies revealed effective PHCl deposition within the dermal layer with minimal systemic exposure. This promising approach offers a potential alternative to oral PHCl, potentially mitigating severe side effects and improving outcomes in complex IH cases.","PeriodicalId":508564,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacia","volume":"37 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140481542","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}

Optimal extraction conditions were applied to validate the quantification.

The results showed that the concentrations of these compounds varied from 0.319 ± 0.022 to 3.524 ± 0.125 mg/g in the methanol extract. The result showed that cinnamic acid is the major compound in A. officinalis collected in Vietnam.

The aim of the present study was to explore the effects of long-term treatment with lacosamide and topiramate on epileptogenesis and related cognitive dysfunction in an experimental model of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced kindling. The latter was induced by the repeated administration of subconvulsive dose of PTZ (40 mg/kg, s.c.) on every alternate day for 8–9 weeks. Both drugs were applied daily in a dose of 10 mg/kg p.o. 30 min before PTZ injection. To assess behavioral comorbidities all rats underwent one active and one passive avoidance tests. The results show that lacosamide significantly suppressed the progression of kindling, while the effect of topiramate was not so pronounced on seizure development. Long-term treatment with both antiepileptic drugs managed to ameliorate the kindling-associated impairment of learning and memory. Lacosamide and topiramate improved active and passive learning abilities and facilitated the formation of short- and long-term memory traces. Both drugs failed to prevent the hyperactivity associated with epilepsy.","PeriodicalId":508564,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacia","volume":"69 4","pages":"1005-1012"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pharmacia.pensoft.net/article/96185/download/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147903587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
