نویسنده
چکیده
Many drugs have come into the market in recent years and its usage is increased for multiple disorders which in turn leads to poly pharmacy and increased drug related problems. One such drug related problem is Drug-induced syndrome. These syndromes are one of the major problems in the health care sector. Drug related problems are found to be a reason for hospital admission and also for an increased patients stay in the hospital. The syndromes can be associated with any pathological conditions or may be drug related. This overview article provides the information regarding the different drug induced syndromes with its causative agents, clinical manifestation and therapy.

متن کاملAnalysis of Drug-Drug Interactions with Cyclic Voltammetry: An Overview of Relevant Theoretical Models and Recent Experimental Achievements
In this review, we focus on cyclic voltammetry as a reliable electrochemical technique to study mechanisms, kinetics and thermodynamics of various types of drug-drug interactions. While we present and discuss six theoretical models relevant to analyze drug-drug (or drug-DNA) interactions, we also give hints about recent experimental achievements in this field. In addition, we provide the reader...

متن کاملThe “Rare” or “Non-LCH” Histiocytic Disorders in Childhood: A Brief Overview
Diseases of the monocyte, macrophage and dendritic cell system are referred to as histiocytoses. Based on improved understanding of their pathobiology and molecular background histiocytoses have been recently re-classified into five groups. Nevertheless, for practical reasons the histiocytoses are grouped into: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (the most common entity), hemophagocytic lymphohistioc...
متن کاملOsmolyte-Induced Folding and Stability of Proteins: Concepts and Characterization
It is well-known that the typical protein’s three-dimensional structure is relatively unstable in harsh conditions. A practical approach to maintain the folded state and thus improve the stability and activity of proteins in unusual circumstances is to directly apply stabilizing substances such as osmolytes to the protein-containing solutions. Osmolytes as natural occurring organic molecules ty...
