I measure [MPA] levels to check adherence in my patients. LINK: https://lnkd.in/eYxuzmHK Click on the link under my pic at the bottom on Medspoke However, this article gives food for thought regarding possibly aiming for a particular drug level (e.g. >2000 ng/mL?) More studies are needed in @lupus @SLE @Sjogrens and other patients who take mycophenolate mofetil and mycophenolic acid. Docs: Don't forget PPIs decrease the bioavailability of mycophenolate mofetil by as much as around 25%; consider using mycophenolic acid if you must use a PPI

💉 𝑫𝒓𝒖𝒈-𝑫𝒓𝒖𝒈 𝑰𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 💉 🥊 One significant interaction to consider is between meropenem, a broad-spectrum antibiotic, and valproic acid, a medication commonly used to treat epilepsy and bipolar disorder. 𝑯𝒐𝒘 𝒅𝒐𝒆𝒔 𝒊𝒕 𝒉𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒆𝒏? ⬆️ Meropenem significantly reduces the serum levels of valproic acid. ❕️This occurs because meropenem increases the clearance of valproic acid from the body, thereby decreasing its concentration in the blood. 💊 𝑪𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒄𝒊𝒔𝒕 𝑻𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉𝒕𝒔 🌟 For patients relying on valproic acid for seizure control, this interaction can lead to subtherapeutic levels of the drug, resulting in increased seizure activity or loss of seizure control, we can consider changing thr antibiotic to another agent as per the culture and susceptibility results of the microorganism.

Fatty liver may cause no damage, but sometimes the excess fat leads to inflammation of the liver. This condition, called steatohepatitis, does cause liver damage. Sometimes, inflammation from a fatty liver is linked to alcohol abuse. This is known as alcoholic steatohepatitis. #liver #hepatites #clínicalresearch #research #medicine #therapeutic #Import #export #exportimport #business

World Liver Day is observed annually on April 19th to raise awareness about liver-related diseases and the importance of liver health. The liver is an integral part of the body. Situated under the rib cage on the right side of the abdomen, liver is an organ that helps in digestion of food and getting rid of toxins from the body. It also helps in developing clotting factors that further help in proper circulation of blood throughout the body. World Liver Day is celebrated every year to create awareness about the significance of liver functions and prevention measures we should take to ensure that the liver is healthy. As we gear up to celebrate the special day, here are a few things that we should keep in mind. #liverday #sarthak #biotech #pcd #thirdparty #liverday2024 #pharma #distributer #exprt #thirdparty #product #medicine #liverproducts #teamwork #manufacturingunit #pcdfranchies #thirdpartyproducts #liverfunction #liverrelateddisease #health #contract #pharmacy #medicine #pcd #exportproduct #
