In our study CSA levels, trough and peak showed significant inter patient variability. The trough and C2 concentration levels did not correlate with the episodes of acute rejection. We conclude that in a triple drug regimen with fixed dosing schedules routine trough CSA level monitoring is not helpful in the acute post renal transplant period.

The current survey is aimed to prepare and appraise ibuprofen (IBU) liquid solid compacts (LSC) to improve the termination properties of IBU and its bio accessibility. IBU LSC are organized by means of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and lactose as carriers in different ratios like aerosol 200 as coating material, propylene glycol (PG) as vehicle and sodium starch glycolate (SSG) and croscarmellose sodium (CCS) as super disintegrants. The LSC organized by evaluated flow properties are compressed into tablets as direct compression method. The tablets prepared are estimated by weight variation, friability, hardness and in-vitro termination. The FTIR studies reveal that there is less communication among IBU and the recipients used in the formulation. The flow properties of the prepared LSC indicate a good flow property and the post compressed parameters of IBU LSC by all the acceptable restrictions. The in-vitro closure study shows a 1.3-fold increase dissolution that is observed in IBU LSC containing MCC as carrier than the formulations containing lactose also as carrier. The added SSG, CCS, and inulin resulted in 1.47, 1.25,and1.19-foldis increased in IBU released formulations without super disintegrants. The overall formulation of F6 is showed faster by dissolution of IBU along with good physic mechanical and flow properties.

Chloroquine is a widely available drug, used for the treatment of malaria and as prophylaxis for travellers to endemic countries. Despite widespread availability report of chloroquine poisoning as suicidal attempt is rare in India. Here we report a case of a young male who presented to our emergency department with alleged history of ingestion of 3.0 gm of Chloroquine tablets as suicidal attempt. He developed convulsion and cardiac arrest after admission. He was aggressively managed in intensive care unit.
