Here is the chapter to do.
Disorders of the ear, nose and throat - such as hay fever, the common cold, hoarseness, and hearing loss - are troublesome afflictions that affect nearly everyone at one time or another. While not life threatening, such problems can cause considerable distress and discomfort. Fortunately, there is much that you can do yourself to prevent or alleviate them.
Picture this:
You are sitting in class. Your nose is running, throat sore and scratchy, muscles achy...when your professor calls on you to answer a question, all you can say is "Achoo!!!"
If several of these symptoms describe you, chances are you probably have a common cold. The GOOD news is that the common cold is "self-limiting." It will last from four to ten days then clear up. The BAD news is that colds are caused by
viruses
. Around 200 viruses, all similar in their effects, are known to cause colds. There is no medication that will cure the cold virus. In most cases, you just have to be patient and let the virus run its course. Fortunately there are things you can do to relieve some of the symptoms.
Before you begin self care for your cold, remember these important things:
Pay attention to your specific symptoms. You may have a
bacterial
infection and should see a health care provider if your cold lasts longer than ten days or you develop any of the following:
fever of 100 or higher lasting over 24 hours
sore throat lasting longer than three days
pain in ears or sinuses
white spots on or near tonsils
deep cough, producing mucus that is anything other than clear
Antibiotics are used to fight bacterial infection and should be used only as prescribed. NEVER take left over antibiotics or those which were prescribed for someone else.
Antibiotics have no effect against the virus that causes colds.
Colds are spread through secretion droplets, therefore it's best to use tissues, not your hands for covering a sneeze. Wash your hands frequently and keep your hands away from your nose!
What about medications?
There are many types of.

DISSERTATION on NEW DRUG DISCOVERY AND DEVELOPMENT STAGES OF DRUG DISCOVERYNEHA GUPTA
The process of drug discovery and development is a complex and multi-step endeavor aimed at bringing new pharmaceutical drugs to market. It begins with identifying and validating a biological target, such as a protein, gene, or RNA, that is associated with a disease. This step involves understanding the target's role in the disease and confirming that modulating it can have therapeutic effects. The next stage, hit identification, employs high-throughput screening (HTS) and other methods to find compounds that interact with the target. Computational techniques may also be used to identify potential hits from large compound libraries.
Following hit identification, the hits are optimized to improve their efficacy, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic properties, resulting in lead compounds. These leads undergo further refinement to enhance their potency, reduce toxicity, and improve drug-like characteristics, creating drug candidates suitable for preclinical testing. In the preclinical development phase, drug candidates are tested in vitro (in cell cultures) and in vivo (in animal models) to evaluate their safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics. Toxicology studies are conducted to assess potential risks.
Before clinical trials can begin, an Investigational New Drug (IND) application must be submitted to regulatory authorities. This application includes data from preclinical studies and plans for clinical trials. Clinical development involves human trials in three phases: Phase I tests the drug's safety and dosage in a small group of healthy volunteers, Phase II assesses the drug's efficacy and side effects in a larger group of patients with the target disease, and Phase III confirms the drug's efficacy and monitors adverse reactions in a large population, often compared to existing treatments.
After successful clinical trials, a New Drug Application (NDA) is submitted to regulatory authorities for approval, including all data from preclinical and clinical studies, as well as proposed labeling and manufacturing information. Regulatory authorities then review the NDA to ensure the drug is safe, effective, and of high quality, potentially requiring additional studies. Finally, after a drug is approved and marketed, it undergoes post-marketing surveillance, which includes continuous monitoring for long-term safety and effectiveness, pharmacovigilance, and reporting of any adverse effects.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

2. Introduction In this powerpoint presentation I will talk about three different kinds of drugs which are Flonase, Allegra, and Ventolin I will also talk about the what it is, the uses, and side effects.
3. Flonase The generic name : fluticasone nasal and the brand names: Flonase, Veramyst Flonase is is a nasal spray that contains corticosteriodfluticasone. This prevents the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation. Usually the uses for this drug are to treat nasal symptoms, for example congestion, runny nose, or even seasonal/year around allergies.
4. Flonase It is important to avoid or being near people that are sick or have infections because Flonase can lower the blood cells that help fight infections. The serious side effects are: severe or ongoing nose bleed; sores in the nose that won't heal; vision problems; or fever, chills, body aches, flu symptoms if you have any of these emergency medical help is needed. The less serious side effects are: headache, back pain; minor nose bleed; menstrual problems, loss of interest in sex; sinus pain, cough, sore throat; or sores or white patches inside or around your nose.
5. Flonase Before using Flonase you should talk to your doctor if you have been sick or had an infection or if you have anything below : glaucoma or cataracts; liver disease; herpes simplex virus of your eyes; tuberculosis or any other infection or illness; sores or ulcers inside your nose; or if you have recently had injury of or surgery on your nose.
6. Allegra The generic name : fexofenadineand thebrand Names are Allegra, Allegra ODT. Allegra is in tablet form and taken with a full glass of water. This drug is an antihistamine that reduces the natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine is was causes symptoms like sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. It can also be used to treat skin itching and hives that are caused by a condition called chronic idiopathic urticaria in adults and children.
7. Allegra The serious side effects are : hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat if any of these symptoms are present should seek emergency help. The less serious side effects are: nausea, diarrhea, upset stomach; menstrual cramps; drowsiness, tired feeling; headache; muscle or back pain
8. Allegra Before taking Allegra you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, or if you have kidney disease. It is also important to let your doctor know if you are pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant because it is not yet known what effects may come about.
9. Ventolin The generic name is albuterol inhalation and the brand names are Accuneb, ProAir HFA, Proventil, Proventil HFA, Ventolin HFA This drug is a sympathomimetic bronchodilator that relaxes the smooth muscle in the airways which allows air to flow in and out of the lungs more easily. Ventolin is usually used to treat or prevent people with bronchospasm. People with reversible obstructive airway disease and to prevent exercise-induced bronchospasm.
10. Ventolin The serious side effects are bronchospasmwheezing, chest tightness, trouble breathing,chest pain and fast, pounding, or uneven heart beats;tremor, nervousness; low potassium (confusion, uneven heart rate, extreme thirst, increased urination, leg discomfort, muscle weakness or limp feeling); or dangerously high blood pressure (severe headache, blurred vision, buzzing in your ears, anxiety, confusion, chest pain, shortness of breath, uneven heartbeats, seizure). The less serious effects are headache, dizziness, nervousness; sleep problems (insomnia);cough, hoarseness, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose; dry mouth and throat;muscle pain; or diarrhea.
11. Ventolin Before using Ventolinyou should tell your doctor if you have any of the below illness: heart disease, high blood pressure, or congestive heart failure; a heart rhythm disorder; a seizure disorder such as epilepsy; diabetes; or overactive thyroid. You should not use Ventolin if you are allergic to albuterol.
