The bark, leaves, and roots of Albizia adianthifolia are highly sought after in tropical Africa as herbal medicines. Therefore, the aim of this study was to review the botany, medicinal uses, phytochemistry, and pharmacological properties of A. adianthifolia so as to provide baseline data required
Numerous states within the USA have legalized cannabis for medical or non-medical (adult/recreational) use. With the increased availability and use of cannabis, occupational and environmental exposures to secondhand cannabis smoke (SHCS) raise concerns over whether non-users may be at For the purpose of evaluation of clinical efficacy, safety and usefulness on Salmonella enteritis, T-3262 (Tosufloxacin tosilate), a newly developed pyridone-carboxylic acid derivative, was administered to a total of 103 patients and carriers. In addition, in vitro antibacterial activity of T-3262
The tolerability profile of norfloxacin, the first of a new generation of fluoroquinolone carboxylic acid antibacterials, has been defined in numerous laboratory animal and human trials. Whether administered for moderate or protracted periods, norfloxacin has been relatively safe in animals over a
In 10 volunteers, the pharmacokinetics of ofloxacin [HOE 280, DL 8280; (+/-)-9-fluoro-2,3-dihydro-3-methyl-10-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-7-oxo-7H -pyrido-[1,2,3-de] [1,4]benzoxacine-6-carboxylic acid] was determined after administration of 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg intravenously (30-min infusion) as
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to estimate the risk of symptoms and the possible derangement of levels of immunologic markers for contemporary Swedish rubber workers. Furthermore, the relation between exposure and these biomarkers of response was examined using urinary levels of
Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) represent a new class of effective and well tolerated orally active antihypertensive agents. Recent clinical trials have shown the added benefits of ARBs in hypertensive patients (reduction in left ventricular hypertrophy, improvement in diastolic function,
Valproate is a branched-chain carboxylic acid with an extensive history of use as an antiepileptic drug. In recent years, multiple uses for valproate have been found in psychiatry. As divalproex sodium, it is currently approved for the treatment of manic episodes associated with bipolar disorder and
The cerebral circulation is innervated by calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) containing fibers originating in the trigeminal ganglion. During a migraine attack, there is a release of CGRP in conjunction with the head pain, and triptan administration abolishes both the CGRP release and the pain
The effects of oral Magnesium (Mg) pyrrolidone carboxylic acid were evaluated in 20 patients affected by menstrual migraine, in a double-blind, placebo controlled study. After a two cycles run-in period, the treatment (360 mg/day of Mg or placebo) started on the 15th day of the cycle and continued
BACKGROUND
Idiopathic Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizures (GTCS) are frequently encountered in adults. Their successful control is necessary to improve the quality of life of these patients. Valproic acid is a simple branched-chain carboxylic acid and lamotrigine is a phenyltriazine derivative.
