Varenicline became available as a prescription stop smoking medication between 2006-2008 in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. This study uses survey data to examine trends in stop smoking medication use in these countries during this period. The study finds that the use of any stop smoking medication increased significantly over the 3 years in all 4 countries. Varenicline became the second most used medication, behind NRT. Varenicline use increased substantially in each country as it was introduced, from 0.4-21.7% in the US to 0-14.8% in Canada. This suggests varenicline increased overall medication use rather than just gaining market share.

Professional opinion on "Expiry date of a drug: is it myth?"

Ranjan Gowda

The document discusses drug expiration dates and whether expired drugs are unsafe to use. It notes that in 1979, the FDA began mandating expiration dates on drugs based on stability testing. However, studies have shown that over 90% of drugs maintain at least 90% of their potency even decades after the expiration date. The FDA has a Shelf Life Extension Program that has tested over 3000 drugs and found 88% could have their expiration dates extended, on average by 66 months. While some drugs like insulin may degrade quickly, for most solid oral dosage drugs stored properly, there is no evidence expired drugs increase toxicity risks, and they may be used when no alternative is available to reduce waste.

The document provides an overview of the history and development of pharmacy and healthcare. It describes how ancient civilizations first looked to magic and religion to explain illness before adopting more scientific approaches. Key developments included ancient Greek and Roman physicians establishing early medical practices, the identification of active compounds from plants in the Middle Ages, and major advances in the 19th-20th centuries like vaccines, antibiotics, and new drug development. The modern pharmacy profession developed alongside new regulations with the growth of pharmaceutical drugs in the 20th century.

The document is a literature review that examines whether medication can effectively treat childhood obesity. It discusses two FDA-approved medications, sibutramine and orlistat, and reviews studies on their effectiveness and safety for adolescents. While the medications showed some success in facilitating modest short-term weight loss, the review finds the data to be ambiguous and the medications to have concerning side effects. It concludes that medication alone is not the best solution and a comprehensive approach involving medical, social, behavioral, and political factors is needed to address the complex issue of childhood obesity.

CAN MEDICATION CURE OBESITY IN CHILDREN? 2 Abstract In recent years, policymakers and medical experts have expressed alarm about the growing problem of childhood obesity in the United States. While most agree that the issue deserves attention, consensus dissolves around how to respond to the problem. This literature review examines one approach to treating childhood obesity: medication. The paper compares the effectiveness for adolescents of the only two drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for long-term treatment of obesity, sibutramine and orlistat. This examination of pharmacological treatments for obesity points out the limitations of medication and suggests the need for a comprehensive solution that combines medical, social, behavioral, and political approaches to this complex problem.

A Review of the Literature In March 2004, U.S. Surgeon General Richard Carmona called attention to a health problem in the United States that, until recently, has been overlooked: childhood obesity. Carmona said that the “astounding” 15% child obesity rate constitutes an “epidemic.” Since the early 1980s, that rate has “doubled in children and tripled in adolescents.” Now more than 9 million children are classified as obese.1 While the traditional response to a medical epidemic is to hunt for a vaccine or a cure-all pill, childhood obesity is more elusive. The lack of success of recent initiatives suggests that medication might not be the answer for the escalating problem. This literature review considers whether the use of medication is a promising approach for solving the childhood obesity problem by responding.

Coughlin Talk on Caffeine at Supply Side West Las Vegas October 2014

This document provides an overview of caffeine safety issues from the perspective of James Coughlin, PhD. Some key points: - Many earlier studies linked caffeine to health issues but most of these links have been disproven. Caffeine is generally recognized as safe in the amounts consumed from coffee, tea, and soda. - Newer concerns have been raised about added caffeine in energy drinks and foods. The FDA has expressed concerns about a lack of understanding around appropriate levels and uses of added caffeine. - Several regulatory agencies like the FDA, EFSA, and Health Canada are examining the scientific evidence on caffeine safety, conducting reviews of the literature, and exploring safe intake levels for both the general public and vulnerable

Cytisine is a plant-derived alkaloid that has been used for over 50 years in Eastern Europe as a smoking cessation aid. It works similarly to nicotine by binding to nicotinic receptors in the brain. Early clinical trials from the 1960s-70s found quit rates of 41-65% during treatment and 21-30% at 6 months using cytisine. More recent meta-analyses found cytisine has comparable efficacy to nicotine replacement therapy and other approved smoking cessation medications. However, absolute quit rates remain modest at around 8.5% after one year. Cytisine is very inexpensive compared to other treatments and has a good safety profile, suggesting it could be an affordable option for smoking cess
