Dear Friends,

Greetings!!

The work of pharmacists is on display. It can be seen in the

hospitals we visit many times, and the families in which we live and work. Medicine

these days are the integral part of everybody's life.

STEP fields (science, technology, engineering, and pharmacy) produce innovators and problem solvers—professionals whose impact is far reaching and life changing. It was a team of pharmacists who created -life- benefiting pharmaceuticals.

IPGA is committed to educating the pharmacy professionals of tomorrow. Our members will be the individuals who will drive future innovation. But providing them a solid platform is only the beginning. We also must ignite within our members the passion to lead—and to teach them to view mistakes as opportunities to improve. We also must instill in them the importance of guiding future generations to pursue innovation.

IPGA has been actively working by organizing refresher courses for the working pharmacists on the burning issues like prevention of microbial resistance, managing life style disorders by educating, preventing medication errors, proper storage of medicines and digitalization of the pharmacy services. Our emphasis is on getting suitable jobs to the passing out graduates by organizing mega job fests and pharma summits.

Our new section of student forum is bubbling with energy to drive IPGA to newer heights with long list of activities like internship fair, leadership talk and many more community based programs. We wish the team a great success in their endeavour. We invite more and more pharmacy students to become a part of the next generation IPGA fore front.

stWe recently organized a well attended 31 annual conference of IPGA at CSIR-CDRI new campus at Lukhnow, where we felicitated Padam shree Dr Nityanand, Honourable Dr Vinay Pathak, Vice Chancellor, Dr A P J Abdul Kalam Technical University and Respected Dr G N Singh, Drugs Controller General of India. We also congratulate Respected Prof Harkishan for receiving the most prestigious padamshree honour.

I am sure this issue of IPGA Today will provide you with the detailed information on the various professional activities of our association for the community and society we are living in.

“The best pharmacist is open to experience and start with the idea that anything is possible.”

BEST FOODS FOR DIABETICS1) CINNAMON : Research has suggested that cinnamon, in type-2 diabetes, helps to reduce blood glucose levels and increase insulin sensitivity. It improves insulin receptor function by activating enzymes that cause insulin to bind to cells (insulin receptor-kinase) and inhibits enzyme that blocks this process. 6 gms per day reduces LDL, Cholesterol and triglycerides. If 6 gms is taken for 40 days, can drop the blood glucose level by 25%.Best form is to brew cinnamon like tea and drink.

2) JAMMUN Total jammun fruit is very effective in diabetes. Seeds are rich in alkaloids which have hypoglycemic

effect. They also increase insulin activity and sensitivity. 1 gm of powder taken three times a day can bring down the level of glucose by 30%.

3) ONION Contains high quantity of flavonoids (quercetin, cysteine, allyl propyl disulphide) which have the property to lower the sugar levels in diabetes.50 gms of onion extract as juice controls the post prandial glucose levels.

4) FENUGREEK SEEDS It contains fibers and chemicals which slows digestion of carbohydrates and sugar. It also increases the insulin release. 4, hydroxyleucine- a novel amino acid

present in seeds increases glucose simulated insulin release by isolated islet cells.In the morning drink 10 gms of seeds soaked in hot water over night.

5) ALO-VERA Alo-vera is packed with glucomannan which reduces glucose levels. The other components like anthraquinones, organic phenols and lectins also regulate the sugar levels. Alo-vera cleans the body and eliminates excess glucose in the blood stream. It stimulates the secretion of insulin from the pancreatic beta cells. Alo-vera juice 50 ml taken twice a day regularly for two months brings a substantial change in sugar levels.

The Best Time to Take Walk for DiabeticsA surprising news that taking a

walk before eating brings down

the blood glucose levels. But

whether we take a walk before or

after food or both will bring down

the sugar levels.

Taking a walk after dinner is the

best for diabetics but before

dinner is still better.

Walk for 25 minutes, five days a

week is recommended. Walking is

also good for pre-diabetics in

controlling sugar levels.

The researchers have found that

intense physical activity (fast

walks) before meals help people

with insulin resistance to control

their blood glucose levels better

than the standard recommenda-

tion to get one daily 30 minutes

of moderate exercise.

Medication Error : Series 1

"A medication error is any preventable event that may cause or lead to inappropriate medication use or patient harm while the medication is in the control of the health care professional, patient, or consumer. Such events may be related to professional practice, health care products, procedures, and systems, including prescribing, order communication, product labeling, packag ing , and nomenc lature , compounding, dispensing, distribution, administration, education, monitoring, and use."

Ten key elements of medication useMany factors can lead to medication errors. The Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) has identified 10 key elements with the greatest influence on medication use, noting that weaknesses in these can lead to medication errors. They are:

· Patient information

· Drug information

· Adequate communication

· Drug packaging, labeling, and nomenclature

· Medication storage, stock, standard-ization, and distribution

· Drug device acquisition, use, and monitoring

· Environmental factors

· Staff education and competency

· Patient education

· Quality processes and risk manage-ment.

Types of Medication Errors 3,7–18,a

Type Definition(a) Prescribing error, Incorrect drug selection (based on indications, contra-indications, known allergies, existing drug therapy, and other factors), dose, dosage form, quant i ty, route , concentration, rate of administration, or instructions for use of a drug, product ordered or authorized by physician (or

other legitimate prescriber); illegible prescriptions or medication orders that lead to errors that reach the patient Omission error.

(b) The failure to administer an ordered dose to a patient before the next scheduled dose, if any wrong time error Administration of medication outside a predefined time interval from its scheduled administration time (this interval should be established by each individual health care facility) Unautho-rized drug error.

(c) Administration to the patient of medication not authorized by a legitimate prescriber for the patient Improper dose error

(d) Administration to the patient of a dose that is greater than or less than the amount ordered by the prescriber or administration of duplicate doses to the patient, i.e., one or more dosage units in addition to those that were ordered wrong dosage-form error.

(e) Administration to the patient of a drug product in a different dosage form than ordered by the prescriber wrong- drug-preparation error.

(f) Drug product incorrectly formulated or manipulated before administration- wrong administration-technique error.

(g) Inappropriate procedure or improper technique in the administra-tion of a drug deteriorated drug error.

(h) Administration of a drug that has expired or for which the physical or chemical dosage-form integrity has been compromised.

(i) Monitoring error Failure to review a prescribed regimen for appropriateness and detection of problems, or failure to use appropriate clinical or laboratory data for adequate assessment of patient response to prescribed therapy Compliance error Inappropriate patient behavior regarding adherence to a prescribed medication regimen.

( j) Other medication error Any medication error that does not fall into one of above predefined categories.1 The categories may not be mutually exclusive because of the multidisciplinary and multi factorial nature of medication errors.

2 Assumes no prescribing error. Excluded would be (1) a patient's refusal to take the medication or (2) a decision not to administer the dose because of recognized contraindica-tions. If an explanation for the omission is apparent (e.g., patient was away from nursing unit for tests or medication was not available), that reason should be documented in the appropriate records.

3 This would include, for example, a wrong drug, a dose given to the wrong patient, unordered drugs, and doses given outside a stated set of clinical guidelines or protocols.

4 Excluded would be (1) allowable deviations based on preset ranges established by individual health care organizations in consideration of measuring devices routinely provided to those who administer drugs to patients (e.g., not administering a dose based on a patient's measured temperature or blood glucose level) or other factors such as conversion of doses expressed in the apothecary system to the metric system and (2) topical dosage forms for which medication orders are not expressed quantitatively.

5 Excluded would be accepted protocols (established by the pharmacy and therapeutics committee or its equivalent) that authorize pharmacists to dispense alternate dosage forms for patients with special needs (e.g., liquid formulations for patients with nasogastric tubes or those who have difficulty swallowing), as allowed by state regulations.

6 This would include, for example, incorrect dilution or reconstitution, mixing drugs that are physically or chemically incompatible, and inadequate product packaging.

7 This would include doses administered (1) via the wrong route (different from the route prescribed), (2) via the correct route but at the wrong site (e.g., left eye instead of right), and (3) at the wrong rate of administration.

8 This would include, for example, administration of expired drugs and improperly stored drugs.

Common Causes of Medication Errors

· Ambiguous strength designation on labels or in packaging

· Drug product nomenclature (look-alike or sound-alike

· names, use of lettered or numbered prefixes and suffixes in drug names)

· Equipment failure or malfunction

· Illegible handwriting

· Improper transcription

· Inaccurate dosage calculation

· Inadequately trained personnel

· Inappropriate abbreviations used in prescribing

· Labeling errors

· Excessive workload

· Lapses in individual performance

Avoiding medication errors

How can you safeguard your patients from medication errors? For starters, be conscientious about performing the “five rights” of medication administra-tion every time—right patient (using two identifiers), right drug, right dosage, right time, and right route. Some experts have expanded this list to include:

· right reason for the drug

· right documentation

· right to refuse medication

· right evaluation and monitoring

Eliminating medication errors

Avoiding medication errors requires vigilance and the use of appropriate technology to help ensure proper procedures are followed. Computerized physician order entry reduces errors by identifying and alerting physicians to patient allergies or drug interactions,

el iminating poorly handwritten prescriptions, and giving decision support regarding standardized dosing regimens.

Be sure to use the safety practices already in place in your facility. Eliminate distractions while preparing and administering medications. Learn as much as you can about the medications you administer and ways to avoid mistakes. (See Websites that can help you avoid medication errors by clicking on the PDF icon above.) Finally, be aware of the role fatigue can play in medication errors.1. Koppel R, Wetterneck T, Telles J, Karsh B. Workarounds

BEST FOODS FOR DIABETICS7) BROCCOLI Broccoli contains phytochemical Sulforaphane which can reverse the damage diabetes inflict on the blood vessels. It is recommended for diabetics because it contains antioxidant, minerals, vitamins and low calories. Broccoli also contains chromium which is required for GTF ( glucose tolerance factor) thus helps to metabolize blood sugar. Broccoli should not be cooked but eaten in salads or stir fried.

8) GARLIC The most important component of garlic is Allicin. This competes with insulin by inactivating sites in liver which results in no insulin inactivation. It also increase release of free insulin from beta cells. Garlic because of its antioxidant properties reduces the free radicals production

and helps in diabetes. It also prevents from the damages to the organs due to diabetes by slowing down glycation process due to high sugar levels. Garlic can be taken with water or garlic oil soft gel capsules are available.

9) BASIL (TULSI) It is very potent antioxidant therefore rel ieves oxidative stress, lowers triglycerides and LDL. It reduces blood fat and carving for sweets. Generates healthy beta cells for better production of insulin.Tulsi brings down fasting blood glucose levels. Basil taken in quantity of 200mg/kgm body weight for 30 days can lead to decrease of about 17% in sugar levels.

10) GREEN TEA Green tea contains polyphenols like EGCG ( epigallocate-

chingallate) which helps to sensitize cells so they are better able to metabolize sugar. Obesity and diabetes are closely linked and green tea lowers body fat thus helps in diabetes. The liver produces some glucose but the sugar spikes occur from the food we eat. Green tea reduces the amount of glucose that passes through intestines into the blood stream. Therefore green tea consumed with food will help to control the sugar levels in diabetes. When starch is consumed it requires enzyme amylase to break down into simple sugars and green tea inhibits the amylase and sugar is not converted. This controls sugar levels. 3 to 4 sachets of green tea in a day will give the desired results.

With proper planning, you can still enjoy the experience of traveling to new places or visiting family and friends. Part of that planning includes:

· Discussing your travel plans with your doctor

· Asking your doctor for written prescriptions for all your medications and diabetes supplies

· Getting a travel letter from your doctor describing your diabetes plan. This is optional, not required by U.S. airport security.

· Packing proper amount of diabetes supplies that you'll need for your trip. (Note: To make it easier to get through airport security, keep your insulin in the same box that it came in with the original Rx label on it.)

Your Travel Letter

Before you leave, ask your doctor to write a letter on official stationery that you can give to doctors in the places that you visit. It should have the following information:

· Your diabetes treatment plan so doctors in the places you travel can understand your needs.

Your need to carry syringes or needles for insulin pens and lancets as part of your insulin injection therapy. Having this will be helpful if your luggage is examined at airport security checkpoints. Be sure to keep your syringes, needles, pens, and lancets in the same boxes that they came in with the original Rx label on them.

· A list of the supplies you need for your diabetes care.

This medical documentation regarding your diabetes is not required by U.S. airport security and will not exempt you from the security screening process.

Your Supplies

You should have a diabetes kit that's specially packed for traveling. It should contain the same items that are in your regular diabetes kit, but enough of them to last for the length of time that you'll

be away. If you're traveling by plane, be sure to keep your diabetes kit close by you at all times - NEVER keep it in your checkin luggage!

At the Airport

Notify the screener that you have diabetes and are carrying your supplies with you. You have the option of requesting a visual inspection of your insulin and diabetes associated supplies. As of August, 2006 the following diabetes-related supplies and equipment are allowed through the checkpoint once they have been screened:

· Lancets, blood glucose meters, blood glucose meter test strips, alcohol swabs, meter-testing solu-tions.

· Insulin and insulin loaded dispensing products (vials or box of individual vials, jet injectors, pens, infusers, and preloaded syringes).

· Insulin in any form or dispenser must be properly marked with a professi-onally printed label identifying the medication or manufacturer's name or pharmaceutical label.

· Unlimited number of unused syringes when accompanied by insulin or other injectable medica-tion.

· Insulin pump and insulin pump supplies (cleaning agents batteries, plastic tubing, infusion kit, catheter, and needle).

· Notify screeners if you are wearing an insulin pump.

· Insulin pumps and supplies must be accompanied by insulin with profess ional ly pr inted labels identifying the medication or manufacturer's name or pharmacy label.

· Glucagon emergency kit.

· Urine ketone test strips.

· Unlimited number of used syringes when transported in Sharps disposal container or other similar hard-

surface container.

· Let screeners know if you are experiencing low blood sugar and are in need of medical assistance.

When Flying Across Multiple Time Zones

Your total insulin dosage is designed to work for about 24 hours, so if you change three or more time zones when flying across the country or overseas, you might need to adjust your injection schedule. (Note: It's not necessary to adjust your insulin schedule when traveling by boat because time changes occur more slowly.)

Discuss your insulin needs and time zone changes with your doctor or diabetes educator so you can know how to fine-tune your dosage, especially if you mix insulins in one syringe or take more than one injection daily.

Smart Tips for Flying

· In general, when you fly east you lose time, so you may need less insulin.

· When you fly west, you gain time, so you may need more insulin.

· Test your blood glucose more often on the day that you fly.

· As a general rule, reset your watch when you land.

· On long flights, walk up and down the aisle every 90 minutes to exercise.

· Carry some food with you in case there's no meal or snack served on your flight, or if the food that you're supposed to be served is delayed.

· Keep your diabetes supplies close by you at all times - never check them in your luggage!

· If you use an insulin pump, it may be a good idea to carry syringes and insulin with you as a back-up in the event that airport security overseas requires you to place the pump into your checked luggage.

Know more about ............ Zika VirusKey facts· Zika virus disease is caused by a virus

transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes.· People with Zika virus disease usually

have a mild fever, skin rash (exanthema) and conjunctivitis. These symptoms normally last for 2-7 days.

· There is no specific treatment or vaccine currently available.

· The best form of prevention is protection against mosquito bites.

· The virus is known to circulate in Africa, the Americas, Asia and the Pacific.

IntroductionZika virus is an emerging mosquito-borne virus that was first identified in Uganda in 1947 in rhesus monkeys through a monitoring network of sylvatic yellow fever. It was subsequently identified in humans in 1952 in Uganda and the United Republic of Tanzania. Outbreaks of Zika virus disease have been recorded in Africa, the Americas, Asia and the Pacific.

· Genre: Flavivirus

· Vector: Aedes mosquitoes (which usually bite during the morning and late afternoon/evening hours)

· Reservoir: Unknown

Signs and Symptoms

The incubation period (the time from exposure to symptoms) of Zika virus disease is not clear, but is likely to be a few days. The symptoms are similar to other arbovirus infections such as dengue, and include fever, skin rashes, conjunctivitis, muscle and joint pain, malaise, and headache. These symptoms are usually mild and last for 2-7 days.

During large outbreaks in French Polynesia and Brazil in 2013 and 2015 respectively, national health authorities reported potential neurological and auto-immune complications of Zika virus disease. Recently in Brazil, local health authorities have observed an increase in Zika virus infections in the general public as well as an increase in babies born with microcephaly in northeast Brazil. Agencies investigating the Zika outbreaks are finding an increasing body of

evidence about the link between Zika virus and micro-cephaly. However, more investigation is needed before we understand the relationship between microcephaly in babies and the Zika virus. Other potential causes are also being investigated.

TransmissionZika virus is transmitted to people through the bite of an infected mosquito from the Aedes genus, mainly Aedes aegypti in tropical regions. This is the same mosquito that transmits dengue, chikungunya and yellow fever.

Zika virus disease outbreaks were reported for the first time from the Pacific in 2007 and 2013 (Yap and French Polynesia, respectively), and in 2015 from the Americas (Brazil and Colombia) and Africa (Cape Verde). In addition, more than 13 countries in the Americas have reported sporadic Zika virus infections indicating rapid geographic expansion of Zika virus.

DiagnosisZika virus is diagnosed through PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and virus isolation from blood samples. Diagnosis by serology can be difficult as the virus can cross-react with other flaviviruses such as dengue, West Nile and yellow fever.

Prevention

Mosquitoes and their breeding sites pose a significant risk factor for Zika virus infection. Prevention and control relies on reducing mosquitoes through source reduction (removal and modification of breeding sites) and reducing contact between mosquitoes and people.

This can be done by using insect repellent; wearing clothes (preferably light-coloured) that cover as much of the body as possible; using physical barriers such as screens, closed doors and windows; and sleeping under mosquito nets. It is also important to empty, clean or cover containers that can hold water such as buckets, flower pots or tyres, so that places where mosquitoes can breed are removed.

Special attention and help should be given to those who may not be able to

protect themselves adequately, such as young children, the sick or elderly.

During outbreaks, health authorities may advise that spraying of insecticides be carried out. Insecticides recommended by the WHO Pesticide Evaluation Scheme may also be used as larvicides to treat relatively large water containers.

Travellers should take the basic precautions described above to protect themselves from mosquito bites.

Treatment

Zika virus disease is usually relatively mild and requires no specific treatment. People sick with Zika virus should get plenty of rest, drink enough fluids, and treat pain and fever with common medicines. If symptoms worsen, they should seek medical care and advice. There is currently no vaccine available.

WHO response

WHO is supporting countries to control Zika virus disease through:

· Define and prioritize research into Zika virus disease by convening experts and partners.

· Enhance surveillance of Zika virus and potential complications.

· Strengthen capacity in risk communi-cation to help countries meet their commitments under the International Health Regulations.

· Provide training on clinical manage-ment, diagnosis and vector control including through a number of WHO Collaborating Centres.

· Strengthen the capacity of laborato-ries to detect the virus.

· Support health authorit ies to implement vector control strategies aimed at reducing Aedes mosquito populations such as providing larvicide to treat standing water sites that cannot be treated in other ways, such as cleaning, emptying, and covering them.

· Prepare recommendations for clinical care and follow-up of people with Zika virus, in collaboration with experts and other health agencies.
