This feature has been reported by several workers from different parts of the world. For monitoring self administration periodical check up of urine for drug content is necessary. The dapsone tile test described by Irudayaraj(1981) is performed in porcalein tile with drop of leprosy patient's urine. An appearance of pink colour and its intensity shows the drug content in urine. Instead of porcalein tile a cheap and readily available plastic blistered capsule card was used which is convenient to carry in the field and is disposable. 184 urine samples were collected in field and tested at field clinic by paramedical workers employing dapsone tile test. The same urine samples were later processed for dapsone/creatinine ratio at the laboratory by photoelectric colorimetric investigations. It was found that the results of dapsone tile test in the field correlated well upto 96% with dapsone/creatinine ratio estimations in the laboratory. The tile test in plastic card is simple to perform under field condition and it is reliable too.</p>","PeriodicalId":76113,"journal":{"name":"Leprosy in India","volume":"55 4","pages":"665-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1983-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17723678","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 application of polytherapy in field condition was hindered by the cost of the drugs and fear of side effects. 42 infectious leprosy patients attending 5 field leprosy clinics in the slums of Bombay city were put on combined drug schedule. The drug compliance of these patients was judged along with their regularity in attendance at clinics by the persons in charge and periodic and frequent check up of urines. 27 (65%) were regular in treatment from the beginning, 8(19%) who were initially irregular after motivation and 7(17%) remained irregular through out the period. The urine samples collected from leprosy patients on monotherapy and attending the same centres revealed 31% irregularity in drug consumption. The study indicates that advocating combined therapy in field conditions by paramedical workers is quite feasible. The patients on multiple drugs are more regular in drug consumption as compared to monotherapy group. The frequent check up of urine for drug content and advice to patients who are irregular in treatment improve their regularity in drug consumption.</p>","PeriodicalId":76113,"journal":{"name":"Leprosy in India","volume":"55 3","pages":"485-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1983-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17711252","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}

On an average one patient would miss about one third of the clinics in a year. The number of patients taking regular treatment increased from 62% (I round) to 79% (in III round). Approximately 10% patients collected DDS tablets from clinic but never ingested them; and 3% to 7% patients removed Dapsone tablets regularly but ingested none of it, as indicated by negative spot tests. The spot test was found to be positive in about 86% patients, and had a very good correlation (98%) with DDS/Cr. ratio.
