Abstract:

Chronotherapy is the administration of medications in accordance with biological rhythms to optimise therapeutic outcomes and/or control/minimise adverse effects. Community pharmacists play a significant role in public health and its promotion. They are in a unique position to provide their expertise and help patients manage illness, and medication administration/consumption. Despite the increasing recognition of chronotherapy in the literature and its application in clinical practice, the impact of these developments on health care professionals, particularly on pharmacists is largely unknown

Abstract:

<p> Studies have revealed that bilingual individuals opt their native language as the first choice for consultation with health professionals. Moreover, a concordant cooperation between patient and pharmacist is significantly impaired where one party is applying a language with which both sides are not comfortable or confident. Accordingly, a multilingual pharmacy has the potential to remove language barriers for non-compliance among customers who need pharmacy services. On the other hand, in today’s competitive market, a pharmacy may guarantee its survival, and also high revenue, if it

Abstract:

Zimbabwe's catastrophic economic decline resulted in a high unemployment rate (95%), declining socioeconomic indicators, pharmacy stores' unprofitability and lower sustainability. Profitable pharmacy stores play a fundamental role in ensuring public access to medication. Lack of pharmacy profitability leads to poor healthcare delivery, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. A healthy population is panacea to economic growth and prosperity and enhances human dignity, social cohesion, and the quality of life.

Abstract:

<p>The nasal administration of drugs offers advantages over administration by intravenous injection. Drugs can be rapidly absorbed through the nasal mucosa, resulting in a rapid onset of action, and also avoiding degradation in the gastrointestinal tract and first-pass metabolism in the liver. The olfactory receptor cells, which are in direct contact with both the environment and the central nervous system (CNS), are potential routes for drugs into the CNS. The olfactory pathway thus circumvents the blood brain barrier (BBB) which prevents many systemically administered drugs from entering the

Abstract:

Using a semi-PBPK modeling/quantitative meta-analysis approach, this project investigated what factors affect pulmonary and systemic exposures of Budesonide (BUD), Tobramycin (TOB), and Ciprofloxacin (CIP) after inhalation: Three structurally different pulmonary disposition models were developed for each drug, including pulmonary absorption (all three), excretion (TOB and CIP) and sequestration (TOB) in a peripheral and central lung compartment. Systemic disposition parameters were estimated using available human mean plasma (cp(t)) and sputum (cs(t)) concentration profiles after IV administr

Abstract:

Background Maternal opioid use and neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) incidence have increased markedly in the US in recent years. Objectives (1) To assess prescribers’ and community pharmacists’ guideline-based NAS prevention behaviors; (2) to describe providers’ perceptions of contraceptive appropriateness in female patients of childbearing age. Method Cross-sectional study of 100 randomly selected primary care physicians, 100 prescribers authorized to engage in in-office treatment of opioid use disorders with buprenorphine, 100 pain management clinic directors, and 100 community pharmacists

Abstract:

Asthma has become one of the most commonly talked about and politically charged health topics in India. Yet, less than a decade ago, international studies reported that rates of the disease in the country were among the lowest in the world. This dissertation examines how asthma rapidly became a preeminent health concern in Tamil Nadu. I document and critically examine factors that have led to the phenomenon of asthma, from the multiple perspectives of its sufferers, the practitioners who diagnose and treat the disease, and the pharmaceutical companies that develop and market products for its m

Abstract:

Previous studies have demonstrated that rats exposed to methamphetamine (MA) during the neonatal period display deficits in spatial learning and memory. The underlying correlates are; therefore, this study was devised to determine whether neuronal changes occur in the dentate gyrus (DG), nucleus accumbens (NAcc) and cortex of adult rats exposed to 10 mg/kg MA administered four times daily from P11-20 using Golgi-Cox staining [Gibb, R. & Kolb, B. (1998) J. Neurosci. Meth., 79, 1-4]. The DG and NAcc demonstrated a decrease in the number of spines per neuron and the NAcc showed an associated decr
