The number of commercially lucrative drugs coming off patent has catalyzed the growth of the generics industry, creating significant profit opportunities for generics manufacturers. However, this market faces a considerable number of threats, with bulk manufacturers from developing countries becoming internationally competitive and the aggressive actions of branded pharmaceutical marketers in protecting their patent and market position resulting in ramifications for the sector as a whole. Future Growth Opportunities in Generics provides an in-depth analysis into the direction of the global generics market, evaluating competitive dynamics through a detailed review of major consolidation activity in the sector. Opportunities for future success are also explored, including the potential offered by biosimilars and the increasing focus by governments on healthcare cost containment, enabling you to determine the factors crucial to your success in the global generics market, for example, weight gain.
What can I do? His neurologist has him on Mirapex Img and Stalevo 100 mg three times a day. PD can cause cramping in the arms, legs and neck. This is called dystonia. PD does not cause back pain, numbness or weakness -- these are symptoms of a problem with the nerves as they run in the extremities as they exit the spine. It is most likely due to arthritis in the spine. However, you may notice that when the PD medications work, the muscles are less rigid and the pain is reduced. Also your husband may have dementia with increased sensitivity to side effects hallucinations ; from the medication he is taking. He would probably do better without Mirapex or Stalevo and managed on L-Dopa alone plus the addition of Aricept to help cognitive function and Seroquek to reduce the hallucinations. I.
Cholinesterase inhibitors aricept, exelon, reminyl ; appear to slow the progression of cognitive impairment in at least some patients. Measuring response in an individual person is challenging. Dramatic improvement is rare. Anti-depressants are very useful in persons with both dementia and depression. Many choices are available including SSRI's, remeron, wellbutrin, effexor, and nortriptyline. Anti-psychotic drugs are useful for persons experiencing hallucinations or delusions. Older drugs like thorazine, mellaril, stelazine, and possibly haldol should be avoided because of unfavorable side effect profiles. Newer agents like respiradol, zyprexa, and seroquel are safer but much more expensive. Tranquilizers like valium, Librium, ativan, and serax are not first line agents for persons with dementia. They can cause increased confusion, excessive sedation, and paradoxical agitation. Antihistamines such as benedryl and tylenol have enjoyed an undeserved reputation for safety. They are potent confusion-causing agents and should not be given to persons with dementia. Drug treatment should be used carefully. For behavior problems drugs should be used only after other approaches have been inadequate. Treatment should be carefully targeted to specific symptoms, and the effects carefully monitored. If the drug does not help, it should be stopped.
He practice of modern medicine is already a complex undertaking, and this situation is only deepening with time. As the array of available medications continues to grow, it becomes ever more difficult to remain familiar with their properties. It is hard enough to keep track of the therapeutic features and side-effect profiles of all these medications. It poses even more of a challenge to the busy clinician to master the domain of drug interactions. This task requires that one become familiar with the metabolism of the agents we prescribe, as well as those metabolic pathways whose function is enhanced or impaired by these same medications. This is quite a daunting task, and yet it is an essential one if we are to remain true to the dictum, "First, do no harm." As our understanding of drug metabolism has increased over the years, we have learned a great deal about the physiologic elements which mediate drug interactions. Probably the most important of these is the Cytochrome P450 System, a family of mostly hepatic enzymes that perform oxidative phase I ; metabolism on most of the drugs we prescribe. Specific P450 enzymes are named by number-letter-number sequences that specify their precise identity, the main ones being 1A2, 2C9, 2C19, and 3A4. Substrates are those agents which are metabolized by particular P450 enzymes. Inhibitors impair the ability of specific P450 enzymes to metabolize their target substrates, thus producing increased blood levels of those substrates. For example, when the 2D6 inhibitor paroxetine Paxil ; is added to the 2D6 substrate propranolol Inderal ; , this impairs the ability of 2D6 to metabolize the propranolol. This could manifest clinically as bradycardia, hypotension, and even syncope. Conversely, inducers cause an increase in the production of particular P450 enzymes, leading to increased metabolism of substrates of that P450 enzyme. For example, the addition of the 3A4 inducer phenytoin Dilantin ; to the 3A4 substrate quetiapine Serouel ; may increase the clearance of quetiapine up to fivefold, leading to subtherapeutic blood levels of quetiapine. We are learning more about two other systems which also exert an influence on possible drug interactions: phase II glucuronidation and the P-glycoprotein transporter. Phase II metabolism usually follows phase I P450 ; , and thus it usually plays a relatively minor metabolic role. However, there are some medications whose metabolism is primarily governed by Phase II metabolism, such as lamotrigine Lamictal ; , morphine, and lorazepam Ativan ; . Phase II metabolism is catalyzed by specific enzymes, which are associated with specific substrates, inhibitors, and inducers in a manner similar to phase I metabolism. The P-glycoprotein transporter, however, does not affect drug metabolism but rather bioavailability. This transporter lines the gut lumen and the blood-brain barrier, as well as other "interfaces" within the body. Thus it plays a key role in determining to what degree various substances are absorbed into or excreted from the body. P-glycoprotein is an extruding transporter which removes substances from the cytosol of enterocytes back into the gut lumen, or from the capillaries of the blood-brain barrier back into the bloodstream. P-glycoprotein has substrates, inhibitors, and inducers. P-glycoprotein substrates are extruded as detailed above. P-glycoprotein inhibitors antagonize this process and lead to retention of P-glycoprotein substrates. P-glycoprotein inducers increase the amount of active P-glycoprotein and thus lead to more extrusion of P-glycoprotein substrates. Two cases will illustrate how an appreciation of these systems can help us understand, and hopefully avoid, these drug interactions. The first case follows, and the second case will be in the next issue of MDToday, along with further discussion of how to cope with the complexity of drug interactions in everyday practice.

THIS HAS BEEN ONE OF THE toughest years we have faced in obtaining the funding levels needed for critical AIDS programs, " said Fred Dillon, the Foundation's Director of Public Policy and Communications. "Fortunately, we were able to convince state and local officials to provide much of the funding that was needed, but access to HIV drugs and services will be jeopardized if the federal government continues to under-fund these crucial programs." The San Francisco AIDS Foundation has worked year after year to ensure that government funding keeps pace with the growth in the HIV epidemic. Particularly critical is funding for HIV care and support programs, including the Ryan White CARE Act and the AIDS Drug Assistance Program ADAP ; , which provides HIV-related medications to those who otherwise could not afford these drugs. Unfortunately, our goal has been made much more difficult in recent years by and ribavirin.

Trations of estrone in plasma were respectively 4.4, 9.3; 2.3, and 2.0, 6.3 percent. There was a good correlation correlation coefficient 0.95 ; between estrone concentrations measured with this assay and with a commercial radioimmunoassay. The analytical procedure is simple, and one person can assay 80 serum samples per working day. We conclude that the assay is very suitable for serum estrone measurements and is more convenient than published radioimmunoassays. Additional, for example, half life of seroquel.
Treated with this same azole antifungal agent. The authors suggest that even doses as low as fluconazole 200 mg daily may possibly induce an adrenal problem and practitioners should be aware of this possible adverse effect. HIGH-DOSE QUETIAPINE AND PHOTOPSIA A 22-year-old male with schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type, was receiving quetiapine Sedoquel ; 900 mg daily and lithium carbonate 1, 200 mg daily over a 3-month hospitalization.4 In an attempt to "target residual delusions and irritability, " the dose of quetiapine was increased to 1, 000 mg daily. By the next morning, the patient complained of "intermittent flashes of a horizontal streak of silver light" in both eyes. These flashes caused mild bilateral eye discomfort, and he continued having similar attacks intermittently throughout the day. They were worse in bright light. When he was finally examined by his physician 13 days after this problem started, it was decided to back down the dose of quetiapine to 900 mg daily. The episodes began to diminish and within several days the photopsia remitted altogether. The authors briefly discuss ophthalmologic adverse effects of other antipsychotic agents and the phenomenon of photopsia. This is the first such report implicating quetiapine and the drug's effects on serotonin receptors are discussed as a possible mechanism for this unusual side effect.

Clinical issues relating to the last area and other side-effects were well summarised by NICE 2002 ; , as follows: "The British National Formulary BNF ; currently lists amisulpride Solian, SanofiSynthelabo ; , olanzapine Zyprexa, Lilly ; , quetiapine Seroquel, AstraZeneca ; , risperidone Risperdal, Janssen-Cilag, Organon ; , sertindole Serdolect, Lundbeck ; and zotepine Zoleptil, Orion ; as atypical antipsychotics. In 2001, the Committee for Proprietary Medicinal Products CPMP ; recommended that the marketing authorisation for sertindole be reinstated. Because of ongoing concerns over cardiovascular safety, the CPMP recommended that sertindole should only be used in individuals with schizophrenia who are intolerant to at least one other antipsychotic agent typical or atypical ; . It is only available direct from the manufacturers through registered centres and ongoing monitoring is a prerequisite of its use. All individuals receiving sertindole will therefore be required to enrol in post-marketing studies. It is anticipated that the CPMP will review this requirement in 2003, giving consideration to the new safety data; prescribers should therefore consult the manufacturers for further information. All antipsychotic agents are associated with side-effects but the profile and clinical significance of these varies among individuals and drugs. These may include EPS such as parkinsonism, acute dystonic reactions, akathisia and tardive dyskinesia ; , autonomic effects such as blurring of vision, increased intra-ocular pressure, dry mouth and eyes, constipation and urinary retention ; , increased prolactin levels, seizures, sedation and weight gain.

COLON RECTUM 2003 46 11 ; - summ in ENGL PURPOSE: Gallstone disease is reported to be higher in patients with Crohn's disease than in the general population. This study was designed to determine the prevalence of cholecystectomy in patients with Crohn's ileitis, attempt to identify any associated risk factors, and determine whether it is justified to perform prophylactic cholecystectomy during ileocolic resection. METHODS: A total of 191 patients with Crohn's ileitis who were treated medically or who had an ileocolic resection were retrospective reviewed. A questionnaire survey was performed. Telephone interviews were conducted for the nonrespondents. Further review of medical records was performed to determine the details of admissions for any gallstone disease and or subsequent cholecystectomy. A control group matched for age and gender was obtained. RESULTS: A total of 191 questionnaires were mailed, and the overall response rate was 70.2 percent 134 191 ; after telephone interview follow-up. There were 2 of 45 medical and 18 of 89 surgical patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis, i.e., 14.9 percent 20 134 ; of respondents. As a result, 2 patients 1.5 percent ; required endoscopic sphincterotomy, 17 patients 12.7 percent ; needed cholecystectomy, and 1 patient 0.7 percent ; did not have any intervention. Only five patients had a cholecystectomy after their ileal resections. In the control group of 150 patients, 15 patients 14 females; mean age, 51.9 years; range, 34-78 years ; had previous cholecystectomy. There was no significant difference with prevalence of cholecystectomy in Crohn's patients compared with controls 17 134 vs. 15 150; P not significant ; . Furthermore, the number of ileal resections did not affect the cholecystectomy rate, but patients who had 30 cm of ileum resected were more likely to have cholecystectomy P 0.056 ; . CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of gallstone disease in Crohn's ileitis requiring cholecystectomy is similar to that of the general population with a female predominance. In addition, the number of patients requiring cholecystectomy after ileal resection was low. Thus, synchronous prophylactic cholecystectomy during ileocolic resection for Crohn's ileitis is not justified. 486.

It was also found that kazusamycin A exhibited profound inhibitory potency against Rev protein translation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, suggesting its potential utility in HIV therapy. With the intention to synthesize enough quantities of kazusamycin A for additional biological testing, we devised several efficient and scalable routes for the preparation of three key building blocks, namely segments A, B, and C needed for the total synthesis of kazusamycin A.

Causes of anorectal pain included fistulae, abscesses, hemorrhoids, and malignancy KS, NHL, and squamous cell carcinoma ; . In addition, 43% had anal condylomata, 10% of which were associated with anal intraepithelial neoplasia AIN ; . Disease-specific treatments should be accompanied by stool softeners, topical local anesthetics, and systemic analgesics. GYNECOLOGICAL PAIN A study of 67 women hospitalized with HIV reported that gynecological disease was present in 83%.30 Herpes simplex virus genital ulceration was a frequent finding, while other causes included other sexually-transmitted infections, cytomegalovirus, and drugs eg, foscarnet ; . HIV-seropositive women have a higher incidence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia CIN ; and invasive cervical cancer. Several reports suggest an increased risk in the development of other human papilloma virus-associated lesions, including vulval intraepithelial neoplasia and, possibly, invasive vulval cancer. There are high rates of co-infection of HIV and pelvic inflammatory disease PID ; , a cause of acute and chronic pelvic pain. In the USA, HIV seroprevalence among women with PID is reported to range from 6.7% to 27%.31 Regular gynecological screening and surveillance is of prime importance in HIV-seropositive women. MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN Musculoskeletal infections: A recent study of 75 HIV patients referred to a rheumatology clinic mean CD4 count of 250 x106 L ; found that septic complications were the most common clinical manifestation.32 Diagnoses included septic arthritis, septic bursitis, osteomyelitis, and pyomyositis which is usually characterized by acute, unilateral thigh pain, swelling, erythema, and induration ; . Analgesia, following standard guidelines, should accompany antimicrobial therapy and, where necessary, surgical drainage. This study also found a high incidence of bone malignancy. Arthritis and arthropathy: The spondyloarthropathies have been described as the most common type of arthritis in the HIV population. HIV seropositive individuals tend not to have sacroiliitis, but instead have oligoarthritis of the large joints of the lower limbs, enthesopathies of the Achilles' and tibial tendons, plantar fascia, and multi-digit dactylitis of the toes. In psoriatic arthritis, these occur in association with psoriatic skin lesions. An increased prevalence of Reiter's syndrome has been reported in the HIV population in some studies. In those with HIV, the syndrome usually begins with urethritis or enteritis, followed by skin and joint disease. Cutaneous manifestations, especially keratoderma blenorrhagicum, are more prominent than in HIV-negative individuals, but eye disease is less common. Onset may be at the time of the development of immunodeficiency, or may pre-date this. Those lacking the skin disease or urethritis of the above conditions are categorized as having an undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy.
| Discount DrugsSince 2003, AstraZeneca has been served with approximately 60 lawsuits in the US in which plaintiffs have contended that they developed diabetes or other allegedly related injuries as a result of taking Seroquel and or other atypical anti-psychotics made by other pharmaceutical companies. About 40 of these cases were filed in Missouri in August 2005, days before Missouri's tort reform laws became effective. Eli Lilly, the maker of olanzapine, is a defendant in the majority of the cases served on AstraZeneca. Janssen Pharmaceutica and Bristol-Myers Squibb are also defending a number of them. AstraZeneca is also aware of more than 100 other cases involving Seroquel that have recently been filed in California, Delaware, Illinois, Louisiana, Missouri, New Jersey and Texas, but these have not been served. One involves a putative nationwide class action complaint, which was recently filed in federal court in the Southern District of Illinois. AstraZeneca has seen this complaint and it is very similar in form and content to the complaint filed in the US District Court for the Middle District of Florida in 2003 Susan Zehel-Miller et al. v. AstraZenaca sic] Astr aZenaca Pharmaceuticals [ , LP, sic] described above ; that sought certification of a nationwide class of Seroquel users and others, including individuals who were alleged to [ , have developed diabetes as a result of using Seroquel. The federal court in Florida denied certification of the class in the Zehel-Miller case. In early 2005, after the plaintiffs' efforts in that case to secure appellate relief failed, the plaintiffs agreed to a voluntary dismissal of all of their claims with prejudice. It is possible that plaintiffs' lawyers are contemplating the filing of potentially numerous lawsuits against AstraZeneca and other manufacturers of atypical anti-psychotics involving allegations of diabetes. AstraZeneca intends to defend vigorously all of the pending cases relating to Seroquel. In September 2005, AstraZeneca received a notice from Teva Pharmaceuticals USA that Teva had submitted an Abbreviated New Drug Application ANDA ; for quetiapine fumarate tablets 25mg base ; to the US FDA. The ANDA contained a paragraph IV certification alleging invalidity and noninfringement in respect of AstraZeneca's US patent listed in the FDA's Orange Book with reference to Seroquel. In November 2005, in response to Teva's ANDA and Teva's intent to market a generic version of Seroquel in the US prior to the expiration of AstraZeneca's patent, AstraZeneca filed a lawsuit against Teva in the US District Court for the District of New Jersey for wilful patent infringement. AstraZeneca continues to have full confidence in and will vigorously defend and enforce its intellectual property protecting Seroquel.

A quarter of patients at state-owned Hansen's Disease sanatoriums are exposed to the hepatitis C virus simply because of the unsanitary conditions, according to a survey by the Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry. The report revealed that in one sanatorium the exposure rate was 60%. The survey was conducted in October last year on 3, 607 patients. Of these, 958 patients tested positive on HCV antibody tests and 423 tested positive for the virus itself. The ministry says the rate is around only one-eighth the rate found in the general population of 70 + year olds -- the age of most Hansen's Disease patients -- and blames failure to clean medical products such as reusable syringes properly. Patient groups have urged further investigation and quality control.

If the source of the problem is the anti-Parkinson medication, then the evident solution is a reduction or discontinuation of one or more of the offending drugs. If a medication is reduced, however, symptoms such as tremors, slowness, and rigidity may worsen. Often a balance can be achieved whereby one or more medications may be able to reduce the hallucinations without worsening PD symptoms. Also, adjunctive medications such as trihexyphenidyl Artane ; , selegiline Eldepryl ; , and amantadine, can frequently be withdrawn without worsening symptoms. Medications that may be useful to actually treat hallucinations are called "antipsychotics" and include drugs such as quetiapine Seroquel ; or clozapine Clozaril ; . These drugs work to decrease or eliminate the hallucinations without worsening the symptoms of PD. Common side effects of quetiapine include drowsiness, dizziness, and constipation, however these side effects often lessen after a few days to weeks of therapy. Other antipsychotic drugs such olanzapine Zyprexa ; or risperidone Risperdal ; are very good at treating hallucinations and agitated behavior, however they may worsen the symptoms of PD and therefore tend not to used in people with PD. Olanzapine and risperidone are often used to treat hallucinations and agitated behavior in people with Alzheimer's dementia. If you or someone you know with PD is experiencing hallucinations contact your physician. In many cases hallucinations can be treated effectively.
