Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

pharmacist or the prescriber over telephone.
14. Handling of Prescription
3. Collecting and weighing the material
Before compounding a prescription all the materials should be
collected from the shelves or drawers.
All the materials kept in the left hand side of the balance.
After measuring each material should be kept on the right hand
side of the balance.
After compounding of the prescription materials are replaced
back to the shelves / drawers.
While compounding every container of material should be
checked thrice in the following manner:
When collected from the shelves/drawers.
When the materials are measured.
When the containers are replaced back to the
shelves/drawers.
15. Handling of Prescription
4. Compounding, packaging and labeling
Only one prescription should be compounded at a time.
Compounding should be done on a clean table.
All equipment required should be cleaned and dried.
The preparation should be prepared according to the direction
of the prescriber or as per methods given in pharmacopoeia or
formulary.
The compounded preparations should be filled in suitable
containers.
Label the container.
16. Modern methods of Prescribing
Nowadays, the majority of the drugs are available in the market as readymade
formulation manufacturing by different pharmaceutical companies.
The drugs should be prescribed by its official name and not by its proprietary
or trade name.
There are certain advantages and disadvantages of prescribing the drugs by its
proprietary name, which are as under…
Advantages:
1. It’s easy to remember proprietary because they are very catchy.
2. It is easy to communicate with the patient.
3. The continuity can be maintained by prescribing the same proprietary name
every time.
4. The bioavailability of drugs change with the change of adjutants used in
drugs formulation manufacture by different manufactures. So only those
proprietary drugs can be prescribed which have a better bioavailability.
Disadvantages:
1. It is cheaper to prescribe the drugs by its official name.
2. It becomes difficult for a pharmacist to dispense the substitute of the drug
which is available in the stock.
17. Modern methods of Prescribing
There are 4 types of prescriptions which are generally received by the retail drug store:-
• Prescription in general practice.
• Private prescription.
• Hospital prescription meant for ‘out patients’.
• Hospital prescription meant for ‘in patient’.
A typical modern prescription is given below:
18. Care Required in Dispensing Prescription
Following precautions should be taken while dispensing a
prescription.
1. Prescription must be carried with the pharmacist while taking
the medicine out of the shelves.
2. The dispensing balance should always be checked before
weighing any ingredient.
3. All the chemicals should be replaced back in to their original
positions in the shelf.
4. Care should be taken to keep the balance clean after each
measurement.
5. Liquid preparations for external use the label must display
FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY in red ink.
6. Before handing over the medicine to the patient, again the
preparation should be checked.
