Megestrol acetate in cachexia and anorexia
The aim is to review major clinical trials that have used megestrol acetate (MA) in the treatment of cachexia across several disease states. A review of general usage and potential side-effects are discussed. A theory that the newly approved nanocrystal formation of MA can better deliver this potent medication for treatment will also be reviewed.
متن کاملMegestrol acetate improves cardiac function in a model of cancer cachexia‐induced cardiomyopathy by autophagic modulation
BACKGROUND Cachexia is a complex metabolic syndrome associated with cancer. One of the features of cachexia is the loss of muscle mass, characterized by an imbalance between protein synthesis and protein degradation. Muscle atrophy is caused by the hyperactivation of some of the main cellular catabolic pathways, including autophagy. Cachexia also affects the cardiac muscle. As a consequence of ...
متن کاملPrecipitation Reaction of SDS and Potassium Salts in Flocculation of a Micronized Megestrol Acetate Suspension
In this work attempts were made to evaluate K+-SDS and hydrocolloid polymer-SDS interactions in flocculation of megestrol acetate dispersions to enhancetheir stability as a part of suspension formulation. Different dispersions of micronized megestrol acetate and SDS were prepared. KCl and KH2PO4 and their corresponding sodium salts were added to the dispersions and the preparations were evaluat...

متن کاملApproach to the male patient with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
The term "congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism" (CHH) refers to a group of disorders featuring complete or partial pubertal failure due to insufficient secretion of the pituitary gonadotropins LH and FSH. Many boys (or their parents) will seek medical consultation because of partial or absent virilization after 14 yr of age. Small testes are very frequent, but height is generally normal. La...
