It is a highly invasive species that has tremendously dominated over other species of plants and threaten biodiversity. At present, physical, chemical, and biological agents are in consideration to eradicate this plant to prevent the threat to biodiversity and soil fertility. Lantana is considered as an unwanted plant and its biomass is disposed off. In this review, the pharmaceutical potential of this plant and its phytochemical constituents are discussed. Being source for wide variety of bioactive phytochemicals, Lantana is a valuable pharmaceutical raw material. Hence, instead of eradicating the plant as waste material, its pharmaceutical potentials such as antioxidant, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activities can be exploited for the possible application as therapeutic agent. The modern medicine can take advantage of the fast-growing nature of this plant and use this plant as a tool for biopharming. In traditional medicine, Lantana has been used in formulation along with other plants as a treatment for several ailments. This review concludes that Lantana is a medicinally valuable plant, with huge potential in the pharmaceutical industry.","PeriodicalId":8489,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Pharmaceutics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44097049","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}

Material and Methods: A BBD-RSM design using three factors and three levels were selected to optimize the ratio of three herbal extracts. Effect of three independent factors, that is, dry weight of C. papaya seed extract (ethanolic), dry weight of lyophilized coconut water, and dry weight of Ichnocarpus extract (hydroalcoholic) was studied on two dependent responses, that is, superoxide dismutase and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl activity. Results and Discussion: Combining herbal extracts in optimum ratio have shown synergistic potential against oxidative stress and for free radical scavenging activity. Combination therapy has been shown to be effective in preventing many disorders as compared to their individual potential for cure. The analysis of variance was performed to evaluate the significant differences between the independent variables. BBD-RSM allows for extrapolation of data from three or more compounds in variable ratio combinations. Conclusion: It has been proved that the optimized herbal extracts in a proper amount have significant potential against antioxidant and antipsoriatic activity.","PeriodicalId":8489,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Pharmaceutics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49526972","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 publication experimentally substantiates the concentration of propellant chladon-134a, which is a necessary component for the formation of a film-forming aerosol. Materials and Methods: The authors used modern research methods: Pharmacotechnological and physicochemical – to substantiate the optimal amount of propellant in the composition of the developed aerosol film forming. Results: Studies have shown that the type and amount of propellant affects the film formation. The authors found that depending on the amount of propellant in the balloon, the type of delivery of the solution from the balloon will change – or sprayed, or removed smoothly; the appearance of the film depends on the amount of propellant – smooth, shiny, as well as the percentage of concentrate dispensing from the aerosol container. Discussion and Conclusion: Physicochemical studies have proved the influence of propellant on the technological parameters of the film-forming aerosol: Type of delivery, appearance – colorless film with a smooth shiny surface; film thickness – 10–200 μ; drying time – 10–15 min; and the percentage yield of the contents of the aerosol container – 97.84 ± 2.31%. The use of propellant chladon 134a at a concentration of 10% was found to be optimal. At this concentration, the highest percentage yield of the contents of the aerosol container is ensured, which allows to obtain a film with a smooth type of delivery and satisfactory consumer characteristics.","PeriodicalId":8489,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Pharmaceutics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42948129","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}

Materials and Methods: In this study, the caffeine-loaded low-molecular-weight chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by ionic gelation methodology. Ex vivo antimicrobial activity of prepared nanoparticles was carried out by periodontitis patient’s stimulated saliva sample. Result: Our finding showed that caffeine nanoparticles in combination with amoxicillin affect the growth of periodontitis microorganisms. Periodontitis microorganism grew on a nutrient agar medium in Petri plates. Agar cups were filled in combination of different concentrations of amoxicillin with or without fixed caffeine concentration containing nanoparticles. High amoxicillin concentration (0.5 μg/ml) with 1 mg of caffeine-containing nanoparticles showed maximum zone of inhibition (1.81 ± 0.24 cm). On the other hand, low amoxicillin concentration (0.3 μg/ml) with 1 mg of caffeine-containing nanoparticles demonstrated significant potentiating inhibitory zone (1.54 ± 0.15 cm) as compare to high amoxicillin concentration (0.5 μg/ml) alone (1.50 ± 0.21 cm).

Materials and Methods: The polymer PEM is prepared from ethyl methacrylate (monomer) followed by designing 17 formulations of sonidegib loaded PEM-NPs using 3-factor, 3-level Box–Behnken design, and the results analyzed using Stat-Ease Design Expert® software V8.0.1. Three optimal batches (F1, F2, and F3) with comparable values of observed and predicted values are characterized for particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), zeta potential (ZP), entrapment efficiency, and percentage drug loading. The formulation (F3) with minimum particle size and maximum percentage conversion is further subjected to powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies, drug release, and stability study. Results and Discussion: The particle size of sonidegib PEM-NPs (F1, F2, and F3) ranges between 191.5 ± 42.9 nm to 355 ± 39.7 nm and PDI 0.454 to 0.626. The ZPs are within the acceptable limits of −22.9 ± 2.48 mV–−24.7 ± 1.89 mV. The entrapment efficiency of the NPs ranges between 68.46 ± 0.37% and 70.24 ± 0.18% and percent drug loading between 20.62 ± 2.12% and 21.24 ± 1.72. The in vitro release study indicated an improvement in drug release of formulation F3 (95.878%) in comparison with the pure drug (2.86%). The optimized formulation F3 characterized for FTIR, PXRD, and SEM studies indicated molecular state dispersion of the drug with the polymers. The stability studies conducted for 90 days indicated that the developed formulation is stable.

The results of many studies indicate that in one-third of people in Ukraine, the level of BP exceeds 140/90 mm Hg, it is increased. There is a contradiction between the need to adhere to the current level of therapy, which involves the use of new, as a rule, expensive techniques and drugs, and the constant lack of funding for health care. Materials and Methods: Methods of statistical description, systematic, sociological, economic, and statistical analysis, including variational statistics, correspondence questionnaires, and expert assessments, were used in the research process. The study included 1568 patients diagnosed with hypertension. As a result of the pharmacoepidemiological analysis, it was shown that the most often antihypertensive monotherapy is performed for younger patients with initial lower BP values. Results: A more detailed analysis of the antihypertensive activity of drugs belonging to the main pharmacological groups was performed with arterial hypertension monotherapy. Therefore, it is important to analyze the therapeutic efficacy of antihypertensive drugs from different clinical and pharmacological groups, safety, and their impact on the wellbeing of patients. Discussion and Conclusion: Analysis of the structure of prescriptions revealed the dominant positions of Agriculture Commercialization Equity Fund drugs, and, above all, drugs enalapril, among patients with hypertension in all study groups, regardless of age and gender, as well as regimens of antihypertensive therapy.
