      To compare the effects of different pharmaceutical properties of commercially available topical nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on the quality of life, we administered a questionnaire to 65 healthy volunteers. We investigated five creams, five gels, and four solutions of topical NSAID preparations in this study. The survey was conducted to clarify the relationship of their answers and pharmaceutical properties of the topical NSAID preparations. Questions addressed spreadability, smell, viscosity, and comfort level of the topical NSAID preparations. Among the five creams, Napageln had lower spreadability, less smell, and greater viscosity than the other preparations. Because of its easy spreadability, weak smell, and low viscosity, the volunteers favored Sector cream among the cream preparations. Among the five gel preparations, Inteban had less spreadability, stronger smell, and higher viscosity than the other preparations. The volunteers favored Epatec over the other gel preparations. All four solutions had the odor of menthol and other artificial ingredients, except for Napageln. These findings indicate that information on the pharmaceutical properties of commercially available topical NSAID preparations will be helpful to physicians and pharmacists in conducting medical treatment and prescribing.

      Pharmacists should play an important role in controlling the pharmaceutical management of the patients. Although the quantitative evaluations of pharmaceutical management are required systematically, no guideline is presented for patient care during lung cancer chemotherapy. We established a complete pharmaceutical management system and evaluated the performance of the system. Patients admitted to Hokkaido Keiaikai Minami-ichijo Hospital for lung cancer chemotherapy treatment from 2003.5 to 2003.11 were enrolled in this study after signing formal written consents. The pharmaceutical management system that was established involves a unified system consisting of a standard care plan and worksheets by the Problem Oriented System (POS). The system can apply to inpatients for their comprehensive evaluation of pharmaceutical management. The incidence of pharmaceutical problems reported, pharmacist interventions to the physicians, and the bedside pharmaceutical management were increased significantly after applying the system. More than 98% acceptance of interventions by pharmacists to the physicians was indicated. A high rate of intervention for adverse drug reaction (ADR) was demonstrated, due to the information about patient conditions is essential in managing ADR. The total pharmaceutical management system established is expected to give quality improvements of pharmaceutical care along with its efficiency.

      Pharmacy practice, which is executed in the taught of pharmaceutical sciences in Japan, has been assessed and improved student questionnaires. The levels of student satisfaction with the practice are expected to be influenced by their plans after graduation and their experience of training in pharmacies. However, there are few reports analyzing the information in the questionnaires from these viewpoints. In this report, we surveyed the levels of satisfaction of 148 third-year students in the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences of the Health Sciences University of Hokkaido using questionnaires and analyzed the influence of the students' background on the levels of satisfaction with pharmacy practice. Almost half of the students had received voluntary training in hospital and/or community pharmacies. Concerning plans after graduation, 36.5%, 27.7%, and 21.6% wanted to become community pharmacists, hospital pharmacists, and graduate students, respectively. More than 70% of the students were well satisfied with all the programs of practice. The levels of satisfaction with the overall practice and prescription analysis were significantly higher among students who had experienced training in pharmacies than among those who had not. Students who planned to become hospital pharmacists were more satisfied with manners seminars, one-dose package practice, and practice in a simulated pharmacy than the students who planned to enter the other field. Such surveys are useful for finding points for improvement and the development of new curricula when the assessment of pharmacy practice takes student background into consideration.

      Automation in the drug distribution processes is helpful to pharmacists in creating new clinical services. We have ameliorated the drug inventory control system seamlessly connected with the physician order-entry system. This control system application, named Artima, allows inventory functions to be faster and more efficient in real time. The medicines used in our hospital are automatically fixed and arranged to sold-packages, and are ordered from each wholesaler by a fax-modem every day. Artima can search the lot number and expiration date of drug in the purchase and delivery records. These functions are powerful and useful in patient's safety and cost containment. We surveyed the inventory amount stored in the computer database, and evaluated time required for inventory management by tabulating working records of employees during past decades. Inventory decreased by 70% along with the continuous improvement of the system during the past decade. The workload in the inventory management in each section of the Pharmacy Department as well as in clinical units was dramatically reduced after the implementation of this system. The automation system in the drug inventory management allows creating new clinical positions for pharmacists. This system also could pay for itself in time.

      The preparation and clinical applications of indomethacin (IM) gel were investigated in the treatment of stomatitis resulting from chemotherapy and radiotherapy for cancer. IM gel was prepared by adding various water-soluble polymers [hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), etc.] to IM aqueous solution. The release rate of IM from IM gels was found to decrease with increasing polymer concentration and viscosity and to follow a first-order reaction rate equation. The release rate of IM from the IM gel with HPC was decreased gradually with increasing polymer concentration and to be easily controllable compared with gels with other polymers. The time before pain relief occurred after application of the IM gel was slightly shorter and the duration of pain relief was longer compared with the IM aqueous solution. It was confirmed that IM gel is useful in the treatment of stomatitis.

      Cyclosporine (CyA) is the most commonly used immunosuppressive agent in patients who undergo kidney transplantation. Dosage adjustment of CyA is usually based on trough levels. Recently, trough levels have been replacing the area under the concentration-time curve during the first 4 h after CyA administration (AUC0—4). The aim of this study was to compare the predictive values obtained using three different methods of AUC0—4 monitoring. AUC0—4 was calculated from 0 to 4 h in early and stable renal transplant patients using the trapezoidal rule. The predicted AUC0—4 was calculated using three different methods: the multiple regression equation reported by Uchida et al.; Bayesian estimation for modified population pharmacokinetic parameters reported by Yoshida et al.; and modified population pharmacokinetic parameters reported by Cremers et al. The predicted AUC0—4 was assessed on the basis of predictive bias, precision, and correlation coefficient. The predicted AUC0—4 values obtained using three methods through measurement of three blood samples showed small differences in predictive bias, precision, and correlation coefficient. In the prediction of AUC0—4 measurement of one blood sample from stable renal transplant patients, the performance of the regression equation reported by Uchida depended on sampling time. On the other hand, the performance of Bayesian estimation with modified pharmacokinetic parameters reported by Yoshida through measurement of one blood sample, which is not dependent on sampling time, showed a small difference in the correlation coefficient. The prediction of AUC0—4 using a regression equation required accurate sampling time. In this study, the prediction of AUC0—4 using Bayesian estimation did not require accurate sampling time in the AUC0—4 monitoring of CyA. Thus Bayesian estimation is asumed to be clinically useful in the dosage adjustment of CyA.

      The antiobesity effects of Coleus forskohlii were investigated in ovariectomized (ovx) rats. Eight-week-old female Wistar rats were assigned to four groups: a sham-operated group fed the control diet (MF, sham-m) ; an ovx-m group fed the control diet; a sham-operated group fed the control diet containing 50 g/kg of Coleus forskohlii extract (sham-c) ; and an ovx-c group fed the control diet containing 50 g/kg of Coleus forskohlii extract. The body weight, adipose tissues, and cell diameter were investigated in ovx rats after Coleus forskohlii extract treatment. Administration of Coleus forskohlii extracts reduced body weight, food intake, and fat accumulation in ovx rats. Our results suggest that Coleus forskohlii may be useful in the treatment of obesity.

      We repor an effective method for mouth washing after inhalation of corticosteroids for the prevention of local adverse effects such as hoarseness and oropharyngeal candidiasis. This method involves gargling and rinsing immediately after inhalation, repeated at least twice. We performed a questionnaire survey on mouth washing after inhalation of corticosteroids of 19 inpatients who used inhaled corticosteroids at the University of Tokyo Hospital. The questions concerhed: 1) awareness of local adverse effects of inhaled corticosteroids; 2) gargling and rinsing habits; 3) repeating mouth washing at least twice; and 4) mouth washing immediately after inhalation. The percentage of patients correctly performing the individual maneuvers were: 1) 63.2%; 2) 36.8%; 3) 36.8%; and 4) 63.2%. The percentage of patients performing our recommended method of mouth washing (all four elements) was 11%. These results suggest that patients receiving inhaled corticosteroids poorly comprehend mouth washing procedures after inhalation of corticosteroids. It is important that pharmacists advise patients on the correct method of mouth washing.

      We conducted a study of the annual cost of various ophthalmic products used in Japan for treating glaucoma including six of brands and generic ocular beta-adrenergic blockers (38 products). The total number of drops in one bottle of each solution was counted drop by drop. The cost per drop was calculated by dividing the government-controlled standard prices by the total number of drops in one bottle. The annual cost of ophthalmic solution was calculated by multiplying the cost per drop by the number of drops typically used per day. The total number of drops of the ophthalmic solutions in one bottle ranged from 108 to 168. The yearly cost of the beta-adrenergic blockers studied ranged widely, from ¥5392 to ¥27236. Differences in the total number of drops and the usage effect on the annual cost of ophthalmic solutions were found. The annual cost depended on not only the price of the products but also on the total number of drops in one bottle and the usage. Annual cost data may be helpful in selecting ophthalmic products for treating glaucoma in Japan.
