CHAPTER-1

INTRODUCTION

High potency medicine The products of potentisation are termed as potencies in different

degrees.Potency denote the power that is derived by the grades of medicinal power developed by

the process of dynamization. They are a result of series of successive dilution, according to scale

and friction through succussion or trituration. Each stage of dynamization results in a medicine

that is quantitatively reduced and qualitatively enhanced. The power generated is termed as

'potency' indicating the potentiality of the medicine. The potency of the medicine is indicated by

suffixing a numerical and an alphabet(s) to the indicated medicine. The numerical indicates the

number of times the original drug is subjected to the process of dilution and friction. The

alphabet indicates the scale under which the dilution is carried out - decimal, centesimal or fifty

millesimal. Drug strength signifies the strength of the drug in the given potency.In short; it is the

concentration or the amount of the actual drug present in the given potency.

Producers of high potency drugs should be equipped with isolators, such as glove boxes, and the

people handling them should be skilled in using them. Expertise is also required in handling

steroids, some used in anti-cancer therapy and hormones. In 2002 the National Center for Health

Statistics stated that cancer was the second leading cause of death in the USA, accounting for

about 30 per cent of all deaths. For every type of cancer, and in many cases for every patient,

there is a potentially different drug to be used as an effective medication. Earlier anti-cancer

drugs targeted only cells in the cell cycle and did not take into account the uniqueness of every

type of cancer. Advanced clinical research is shedding light on the specific therapeutic targets

and pharmacological research is entering into a new era of targeted molecules. Anti-cancer drugs

are generally referred as 'highly potent'. Some of the drugs are complex molecules of natural

origin that are purified and then subjected to chemical synthesis. Usually, the production process

has to be performed in a controlled environment.

Pharmaceutical drug

also referred to as a medicine , can be loosely defined as any chemical substance - or product

comprising such intended for use in the medical diagnosis, cure, treatment,

orprevention ofdisease The word pharmaceutical comes from the Greek word Pharmakeia. The

modern transliteration ofPharmakeia is Pharmacia

Classification

Medications can be classified in various ways, such as by chemical properties, mode orroute of

administration, biological system affected, ortherapeutic effects. An elaborate and widely used

classification system is the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System (ATC

system). The World Health Organization keeps a list ofessential medicines.

A sampling of classes of medicine includes:

1. Antipyretics: reducing fever(pyrexia/pyresis)

2. Analgesics: reducing pain (painkillers)

3. Antimalarial drugs: treating malaria

4. Antibiotics: inhibiting germ growth

5. Antiseptics: prevention of germ growth nearburns, cuts and wounds

Types of medications

1. For the gastrointestinal tract (digestive system)

Upper digestive tract: antacids, reflux suppressants, antiflatulents, antidopaminergics, proton

pump inhibitors (PPIs), H2-receptor antagonists, cytoprotectants, prostaglandin analogues

Lower digestive tract: laxatives, antispasmodics, antidiarrhoeals, bile acid sequestrants, opioid

CHAPTER-2

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Following studies has already been done to check different dimensions of the high potency

medicines in various places. Some of the previous studies have been reviewed here as below

Burak & Damico (1999) information provided through prescription medicine advertising

encourages individuals to seek advice about health conditions they recognise, but have not been

clinically diagnosed or treated.

Desselle & Aparasu (2000) the fact that lay consumers may lack the requisite knowledge todecide whether to prescribe a drug does not mean they are incapable of accurately understanding

prescription drug.

Andrews (2000) Let no physician teach the people about medicines or even tell them the names

of medicines, particularly the more potent ones, for the people may be harmed by their improper

use.

Brinberg (2001) said legislation also requires provision of specific information, including the

drugs indication and authorised use, its active ingredients and the quantities in which these are

present, any precautions deemed necessary, its contraindications and potential side effects.

Lead author Colin Dormuth(2008) said "previous studies have shown hints that high potency

statins may increase the risk of kidney failure, but the studies were not large enough to provide

more than a signal of a potential problem. If the increased risk only shows up at a rate of one

additional case per 1,700 people treated, a study would need to be very large to ensure that effect

was real and not merely a chance observation.

Dormuth(2008) said"We thought given that so many people use these medications that it was

really important to try to determine if there was an association between stating potency and risk

of acute kidney injury,"


9/22

University of British Columbia7

(2008) said "those who took high potency formulations to

those taking lower doses of the drugs. People included were aged 40 and older and started taking

statins between the beginning of 1997 and April 30, 2008. The data were drawn from databases

from seven Canadian provinces as well as from Britain and the United States. About a third of

the 2,067,639 people in the study were using high potency statins.

An editorial on the issue that ran with the study8

(2009) said"the kidney problems, when they

occurred, seemed to materialize early in the treatment, generally within 120 days. But the risk of

kidney injury associated with high potency statins remained elevated for at least two years, the

study found. An editorial on the issue that ran with the study said that despite the broad use of

statin drugs, the science of finding the Goldilocks dosage maximizing benefit while minimizing

risk was still evolving.

RESEARCH GAPS:

The earlier studies have found out many attributes of the users of high potency medicines. Some

studies shows that patients were more satisfied to use high potency medicine, some studies

shows that patients were suffering from side effect of use high potency medicine, some other

companies sees it as the business proposition, hence different types of the patients has been

studied out till now. But no study has exclusively shown the relation ofpatients demand of highpotency medicine. So with these aspects in mind this present study has been taken up.

CHAPTER-5

CONCLUSIONDrugs which are prescription only are regulated as such because they can impose adverse

effects and should not be used unless necessary. Medical guidelines and clinical trials required

for approval are used to help inform doctors' prescription of these drugs, but errors can happen.

Reasons to not prescribe drugs such as interactions or side effects are called contraindications.

Errors include over prescription and polypharmacy, misprescription, contraindication and lack of

detail in dosage and administrations instructions. In the pharmaceutical industry, the high

potency drug is one that achieves acceptance by prescribing physicians as a therapeutic standard

for, most commonly, a highly prevalent chronic (rather than acute) condition. Patients often take

the medicines for long periods.
