Monograph of Respiridone

Monogram of Respiridone

General description of Respiridone:
Respiridone is an antipsychotic drug with dopaminergic and serotonergic effect. Respiridone is used to treat schizophrenia, the mixed and manic states associated with bipolar disorder, and irritability in children with autism. The drug was developed by Janseen-Cilag.
RISPERDAL ® ( risperidone) s a psychotropic agent belonging to the chemical class of benzisoxazole derivatives. The chemical designation is 3-[ 2-[ 4-( 6-fluoro-1,2-benzisoxazol-3-yl) -1-piperidinyl ] ethyl ] -6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-2-methyl-4H-pyrido [ 1,2-a ] pyrimidin-4-one. Its molecular formula is C23H27FN4O2 and its molecular weight is 410.49.

Risperidone is a white to slightly beige powder. It is practically insoluble in water, freely soluble in methylene chloride, and soluble in methanol and 0.1 N HCl. (http://www.healthcentral.com/druglibrary/408/risperdal-drug_description.html)


Therapeutic group:
Respiridone is the categorized in the therapeutic group of drug for the antipsychotic drug.
Mode of action:
Risperidone is extensively metabolized in the liver. The main metabolic pathway is through hydroxylation of risperidone to 9-hydroxyrisperidone by the enzyme, CYP 2D6. A minor metabolic pathway is through N-dealkylation. The main metabolite,
9-hydroxyrisperidone has similar pharmacological activity as risperidone. Consequently, the clinical effect of the drug (e.g., the active moiety) results from the combined concentrations of risperidone plus 9-hydroxyrisperidone.
CYP2D6, also called debrisoquin hydrozylase, is the enzyme responsible for metabolism of many neuroleptics, antidepressants, antiarrhythimics, and other drugs, CYP 2D6 is subject to genetic polymorphism (about 6% -8% of Caucasians, and a very low percentage of Asians, have little or no activity and are “poor metabolizers”) and to inhibition by a variety of substrates and some non-substrates, notably quinidine. Extensive CYP 2D6 metabolizers convert risperidone rapidly into 9-hydroxyrisperidone, whereas poor CYP 2D6 metabolizers convert it much more slowly. Although extensive metabolizers have lower risperidone and higher 9-hydroxyrisperidone concentrations than poor metabolizers, the pharmacokinetics of the active moiety, after single and multiple doses, are similar in extensive and poor metabolizers.
Respiridone contraindication:
Respiridone is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to the product and who have a history of high blood sugar and diabetes, and older patient treated for mental illness from dementia. Patient with history of seizures, cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, dehydration, diabetes, hyperglycemia, pancreas problem, hypovolemia, Alzheimer’s disease, hypothyroidism, pregnancy and hepatic impairment have to consult with doctor before using Respiridone. (http://www.resource4defectivedrugs.com/topics/risperdal.html)


Indications:
Respiridone is indicated for acute and chronic schizophrenic psychoses and other psychotic conditions with positive and negative symptoms and even indicated for affective symptoms associated with schizophrenia (ABPI, 1998). This drug has some effect on the bipolar affective disorder. Respiridone has been used to SSRIs in obsessive compulsive disorder. (http://priory.com/focus9.htm#Clinical%20Indications)
Interactions of Respiridone
Risperidone could be subject to two kinds of drug-drug interactions First, inhibitors of CYP 2D6 interfere with conversion of risperidone to 9-hydroxyrisperidone. This occurs with quinidine, giving essentially all recipients a risperidone pharmacokinetic profile typical of poor metabolizers. The therapeutic benefits and adverse effects of risperidone in patients receiving quinidine have not been evaluated, but observations in a modest number (n@70) of poor metabolizers given risperidone do not suggest important differences between poor and extensive metabolizers. Second, co-administration of known enzyme inducers (e.g. phenytoin, rifampin, and phenobarbitital) with risperidone may cause a decrease in the combined plasma concentrations of risperidone and 9-hydroxyrisperidone. It would also be possible for risperidone to interfere with metabolism of other drugs metabolized by CYP 2D6. Relatively weak binding of risperidone to the enzyme suggest this is unlikely
Side effects of Respiridone:
agitation, anxiety; blurred vision; confusion; constipation; cough; decreased sexual interest or ability; dysfunction of erection; ejaculation and orgasmdiarrhea; difficulty breathing or swallowing; difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep; difficulty urinating; dizziness; dreaming more than usual; drowsiness; dry mouth; dry or discolored skin; fainting; faintness; fast or irregular pulse; fast, pounding, or irregular heartbeat; fever; heartburn; hives; increased appetite; itching; muscle or joint pain; muscle stiffness; painful erection of the penis that lasts for hours; rash; restlessness; runny nose; seizures; slow movements or shuffling walk; sore throat; stomach pain; sweating; unusual movements of your face or body that you cannot control; upset stomach; weight gain.

Precautions while using Respiridone
RISPERDAL (risperidone) may induce orthostatic hypotension associated with dizziness, tychycardia, and in some patients, syncope, especially during the initial dose-titration period, probably reflection its alpha-adrenergic antagonistic properties. A dose reduction should be considered if hypotension occurs. RISPERDAL should be used with particular caution in patients with known cardiovascular disease (history of myocardial infraction or ischemia, heart failure, or condition abnormalities), cerebrovascular disease, and conditions, which would predispose patients to hypotension, e.g., dehydration and hypovolemia. Clinically significant hypotension has been observed with concomitant use of RISPERDAL and antihypertensive medication.

Special warnings
A 2003 study for the Risperdal reported that 49% more cases of diabetes among the users of Risperdal than amoung older anti-pscyhotic drug. So, Risperdal has been linked to type 2 diabetes, juvenile diabetes, hyperglycemia, other blood sugar disorders, diabetic coma, and pancreatitis- a dangerous inflammation of the pancreas. Respirdone is even linked with excessive weight gain, Neuroleptic malignant Syndrome (NMS) and Tardive Dyskinesia. Elderly patient treated with Rispierdal for demential had a higher chances of death by stroke and cardiac arrest than patient who did not take the drug.( http://www.resource4defectivedrugs.com/topics/risperdal.html)

How to create account in PPP 4

working with the PPP for at least 2 years is very great. I have not been able to make a lots of money cause i had some other stuffs heating me hard and could not give a time to it. Anyway it was real great working with PPP 3. Now i do want to work with PPP4 as well. i thought may be my PPP3 username and password will work out but to my surprise for it i need a password from the social spark. Anyway, i hit the password and then i was asked to submit my blog url, i did it. But to my surprise, it wants to verify my blog, so they asked me to paste certain text in my blog, which is "euphonious flavoured crisps, with real euphonious pieces". euphonious flavoured crisps, with real euphonious pieces is the text that i have to post in my blog for certain time and publish a blog to verify my blog and then i have to press cliam to verify my blog. Well this seems bit a odd job to do but technically i think those people also want to be sure aboout the genuine one.

Heart failure and your life style

Heart failure (HF) is a condition in which a problem with the structure or function of the heart impairs its ability to supply sufficient blood flow to meet the body's needs. This heart failure is termed as most expensive disease to the human life. Around 35 billion dollars is spent each year only in the USA for the treatment and hospitalization of the heart failure patient.
This must of money can be saved if we have control over our own daily activities. Sedative life style is the greatest risk factors for the heart failure. Some other causes of heart failure are myocardial infarction and other forms of ischemic heart disease, hypertension, valvular heart disease and cardiomyopathy.
Other things which contribute in heart failure are: Ischaemic Heart Disease 62%, Cigarette Smoking 16%, Hypertension (high blood pressure)10%, Obesity 8%, Diabetes 3% , Valvular heart disease 2% (much higher in older populations)
Some rare causes of heart failure are: Viral Myocarditis (an infection of the heart muscle), Infiltrations of the muscle such as amyloidosis , HIV cardiomyopathy (caused by Human Immunodeficiency Virus), Connective Tissue Diseases such as Systemic lupus erythematosus, Abuse of drugs such as alcohol, Pharmaceutical drugs such as chemotherapeutic agents. And Arrhythmias.

Anyway if you can prevent from getting heart failure by controlling over your life style, why not to change it.

Stem Cell

I have been hearing a stem cell research for a long, but being medical student as well I was not able to explain what the stem cell really means. I know what stem cell can be converted to and what can be done with the stem cell for the cure of the disease. As I heard about the stem cell being able to convert to the sperm cell I got more enthusiastic to find out about the stem cell. According to the Wikipedia, stem cells are the cell found in most, if not all, multicellular organisms and are characterized by the ability to renew themselves through mitotic cell division and differentiating into a diverse range of specialized cell types. Embryonic stem cells, a cell isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts, and adult stem cells that are found in adult tissue are the two broad types of mammalian stem cells. A stem cell from embryonic can be differentiated or converted to into all of the specialized embryonic tissues and the adult stem cell acts repair system of the body, replenishing specialized cells, but also maintain the normal turnover of regenerative organs, such as blood, skin or intestinal tissue.
Now it’s a sort of requirement that the stem cell are collected from the umbilical cord blood and is saved for the later medical purposes to help the person. During the child birth, the umbilical blood is collected before just for the diagnosis of the disease in the child but nowadays it’s been stored for the future medical help purpose, as stem cell can be used to treat lots of medical problems. It has been found that stem cell can be used to treat stroke, traumatic brain injury, blindness, baldness, deafness and lot other disease.

Best way to manage your Property

I own a house bit a far distance from the city center and I am always worried about that house, because I am living in the city center. I hardly have a time to visit to my house. No body lives in that house, as a fact, the garden is filled with the wild weeds and other grasses. Whenever I remember the grass, I have a sort of pain in my head. I owe a property but have a problem with that, cause whenever I go back to that house, I have lots of works to do than to rest in that house. I know lots of people have same problem like me. One day I came across the real property management and I got relieved from the tension. Now I am earning some money from that house and don’t have to clean up my house and can go and take a good rest in that house. What so happened, is Real Property Management send me some tenants to live in that house and they took a good care of my house and I came to earn a few but a some coins from that house. Real Property management does the work like tenant placement, affordable management fees with no leasing fees, regular property inspection, accounting, project management, maintenance services and much more.

Warranted, do you believe?

Before I used to buy something, I always used to look for the warranty and I would not buy anything without a warranty. So did happen with the purchase of my sony-vio laptop. I purchase the sony-vio laptop after seeing a warranty for 2-years in the hardware maintenance. I was quiet happy with my sony-vio laptop. I used it for 1 year without any problem. At last, one day I happen to have a problem with my sound, with my speaker. I can hear the music with headphone but not with the speaker attached with the laptop. But still I continued to use the laptop. To the addition, after 2 week I came to have a problem with my battery. The battery charges and shows up full but does not last more than 15 minutes. I was much tensed with those stuffs. Then suddenly I remember my habit of choosing the items with warranty. I check for it and found that it is warranted for 2- years, so I rushed to the seller and told them the problem. They assured me that they would try to fix the laptop and took back my laptop with my problem written in piece of paper. I was pretty much sure that they would fix my sound problem and my battery problem. They said to me that my laptop would be back by 1 or max of 2 weeks. I got a call from them after 1 months saying that they cannot repair my laptop, the battery is not covered within the warranty and for my sound problem, they did not find the suitable speaker for my laptop. Now I don’t have any other options than bringing back my laptop without fixing my problem after one months of separation from my laptop. Now I came to realize, warranty is just a policy to business man to sell the product, not to help the customer. Now it’s your time for believe on warranty. I have told my story to you, its your time for belief form warranty.

Mnemonic

Have you ever heard about the mnemonic? Do you know what it does mean? If you don’t know let me tell you this is one technique which enhances your memory capability. I mean you will be able to memorize a huge amount of text or any other things for longer time than you were usually able to memorize for. It is very helpful for the student, teacher and generally to all the people.
So it might be very interesting to know about this techniques won’t it be? There are lots and lots of techniques that would lie under the mnemonic but I will briefly discuss about acronym only this time.
Acronym: Acronym is process of formation of some special word by taking the first letter of the word that we have to memorize. For example, if we have to remember the five steps of the nursing process assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation, then we have to take just the first letters of the each word and it would become ADPIE, which is much easier to remember than the whole lot of words itself. In this acronym technique, we can rearrange the letters to our wish so that it would be easy for us to remember. T hose letters can be formed in the word that we would use it everyday or we would remember it easily. It has been proved that if the letters are arrange is form of the funny word it would be remember for the long time, not only this much if the letter tend to make up some word related to the sex, it will be remember for the longer time than the usual. Formation of the story with the first letter of the words that we have to remember does help to keep something in our mind for long time.
I hope this technique might be very much helpful to remember something for our exams.

Math Tricks, multiply by 20's

I have posted how to calculate from 11-19 by 11-19 within few minutes, but now I would like to share how to calculate 20-29 by 20-29. It’s also simple like calculating like before but there is slight change in the formula. In the previous one you have to multiply the last digit by 10, which as over here you have to multiply the last digit by 20. Anyway let’s get through the process so that you would easily learn it.
Let’s calcue 27*29.
In this process, what you have to do is add 27+ last digit of the another number (9), it would become 36, then multiply that number by 20, which will become 720.
As a second step multiply two last digits of your number (i.e. 7 and 9) from your digit, it will become 63. Now add up your two sums (63+720), it would become 783. That is your answer for your multiplication. Isn’t it easy to calculate in your mind within few seconds. Try some of the multiplication by yourself and show your capacity to your friends, they will be happy with your ability.

Math Trick

I have been away from blog writing for a long time, as I was very busy with my college stuffs and other stuffs. Anyway now I think I can catch up with my blog writing. Well for the starting I would like to write about some math tricks, how you can multiply fast. I will be writing about multiplying of 11-19. I will go thorough each step so the reader could learn within few minutes and can calculate very fast.
Well let’s start with how to calculate with
a) 17*9
to calculate this easily what we have to do is, we have to multiply 7 (the last digit) with the 9, which will become 63.
To the second step you have to multiply 9 (the last digit) by 10, which will be 90.
After that, we have to join up those two which will become 153.

Dear friends, you can say that buddy, you are taking long time to calculate, but friends, if it’s 19*9 or something like that it might be bit hard to calculate.

b) 18*13
To calculate these two numbered one, the formula is you have to add up one number with the last number of another one ( i.e. either 13+8 , or 18+3) then multiply the sum by 10. It will become 210.
Second step is, we have to multiply last number of each (i.e. 8*3) which will become 24 and then add those both number to get answer, which will be 234.

You can use these formulas to calculate any number. I hope it will take only five minutes to master these two formulas and you can calculate those hard feeling numbers very easily such as 17*16 or 19*18, or 13*17, anything of your wish.

I hope this might be a good start for getting back with blogs.
