Ketosteril Tablet ( Ketoanalogues + Essential Amino Acids ) fresenius kabi
Ketosteril is used to prevent and preserve patients with chronic renal failure with a glomerular filtration rate of 5-15 ml/min. The drug is used in combination with a restricted protein diet (protein intake 40g per day in adults or less)
The drug helps to relieve symptoms caused by uremia, reduce proteinuria, prevent protein breakdown of the body, correcting disorders of calcium-phosphate metabolism, hyperparathyroidism and renal osteoporosis, helping to improve carbohydrate metabolism disorders, lipid metabolism, and endocrine disorders.
Ketosteril allows the body to take in essential amino acids while minimizing nitrogen-nitrogen intake. Once absorbed into the body, the keto- and hydroxy analogues will be converted to essential amino acids by taking nitrogen from the non-essential amino acids, thereby reducing urea formation by using amine group.
Therefore, the accumulation of uraemia toxins is reduced. Keto and hydroxy acids do not induce ultrafiltration in the remaining nephrons. Ketosteril contains a supplement that promotes a positive effect on renal hyperphosphatemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism.
Furthermore, renal osteodystrophy may be improved with the use of Ketosteril. The use of Ketosteril in combination with a very low protein diet reduces nitrogen intake to prevent serious consequences of protein supplementation in patients with renal failure.
How to use Ketosteril:
Use Ketosteril as prescribed by your doctor. Do not arbitrarily increase, decrease the dose or prolong the time of using Ketosteril compared to the indicated. Take Ketosteril tablets with food, do not chew the medicine. During the use of Ketosteril drug, it is necessary to monitor the amount of protein taken into the body. Before dialysis, protein intake should not exceed 40g/day for adults; for children from 3-10 years old: 1.4-0.8g/kg; for children 10 years and older: 1-0.6g/kg.. You should consult your doctor during dialysis.

Lasix Injection 20mg 50 x 2ml ampoules (Furosemide) – Sanofi
Heart Failure
How it works
It has been demonstrated that Furosemide inhibits primarily the absorption of sodium and chloride not only in the proximal and distal tubules but also in the loop of Henle. The high degree of efficacy is largely due to the unique site of action. The action on the distal tubule is independent of any inhibitory effect on carbonic anhydrase and aldosterone.

Precautions
Precaution
In patients with partial obstruction of urinary outflow (e.g in patients with bladder – emptying disorders, prostatic hyperplasia, narrowing of the urethra) increased production of urine may provoke or aggravate complaints. Thus, these patients require careful monitoring - especially during the initial stages of treatment.
Warnings
Regular monitoring of serum sodium, potassium and creatinine is generally recommended during furosemide therapy; particularly close monitoring is required in patients at high risk of developing electrolyte imbalances or in case of significant additional fluid loss (e.g. due to vomiting, diarrhoea or intense sweating). Hypovolaemia or dehydration as well as any significant electrolyte and acid-base disturbances must be corrected. This may require temporary discontinuation of furosemide .
Patients allergic to sulfonamides may also be allergic to furosemide. The possibility exists of exacerbation or activation of systemic lupus erythematosus.

Lumigan Eye Drop ( Bimatoprost ) Allergan
Bimatoprost is used to treat high pressure inside the eye due to glaucoma (open-angle type) or other eye diseases (such as ocular hypertension). Lowering high pressure inside the eye can help prevent blindness. This medication works by regulating the flow of fluid within the eye to maintain a normal pressure.
How to use Lumigan Drops
Read the Patient Information Leaflet if available from your pharmacist before you start using bimatoprost and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Use this medication in the affected eye(s) as directed by your doctor, usually once a day in the evening. Do not use bimatoprost more often because it will not work as well.
To apply eye drops, wash your hands first. To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface.
If you are wearing contact lenses, remove them before using your eye drops. Wait at least 15 minutes after each dose before putting your lenses back in.
Tilt your head back, look upward, and pull down the lower eyelid to make a pouch. Hold the dropper directly over your eye and place one drop into the pouch. Look downward and gently close your eyes for 1 to 2 minutes. Place one finger at the corner of your eye (near the nose) and apply gentle pressure. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink and do not rub your eye. Repeat these steps for your other eye if so directed.
Do not rinse the dropper. Replace the dropper cap after each use, and keep the cap tightly closed.
If you are using another kind of eye medication (such as drops or ointments), wait at least 5 minutes before applying other medications. Use eye drops before eye ointments to allow the eye drops to enter the eye.
Wait several minutes for your vision to clear before driving or operating machinery.
Mabil 500 Mcg ( Mecobalamin ) SAMI
Mabil tablet has mecobalamin as active ingredient. Mecobalamin is a form of vitamin b12 that is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system and the production of red blood cells. It is a water-soluble vitamin that is involved in various metabolic processes in the body, including the synthesis of dna and the breakdown of fatty acids and amino acids. Mecobalamin is also important for maintaining normal cognitive function and for the development of the brain and nervous system in infants and young children.
Mecobalamin is commonly used as a dietary supplement to treat or prevent vitamin b12 deficiency, which can occur due to a variety of factors such as poor dietary intake, malabsorption, or certain medical conditions. Mecobalamin is also used as a treatment for various neurological conditions, such as peripheral neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, bell's palsy.
Uses of mabil tablet
Some uses of mabil tablet are,
Treatment of vitamin b12 deficiency: mecobalamin tablets are often prescribed to treat or prevent vitamin b12 deficiency, which can occur due to poor dietary intake, malabsorption, or certain medical conditions. Vitamin b12 is important for the production of red blood cells and for the proper functioning of the nervous system.
Management of neurological conditions: mecobalamin tablets may also be used to manage various neurological conditions, such as peripheral neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, and bell's palsy. These conditions can cause numbness, tingling, and pain in the limbs, as well as muscle weakness and difficulty walking.
Cognitive support: mecobalamin tablets may be used to support cognitive function and memory. Some studies suggest that vitamin b12 deficiency may be associated with cognitive decline and an increased risk of dementia.
Boosting energy levels: mecobalamin tablets may help to boost energy levels and reduce fatigue, especially in individuals with vitamin b12 deficiency.
Drug interactions
Some common drug interactions of mecobalamin include:
Chloramphenicol: chloramphenicol can decrease the absorption of vitamin b12 in the body, which may reduce the effectiveness of mecobalamin.
Metformin: long-term use of metformin may lead to vitamin b12 deficiency, which can be worsened by mecobalamin.
Proton pump inhibitors (ppis): ppis may reduce the absorption of vitamin b12, which can decrease the effectiveness of mecobalamin.
Colchicine: colchicine can interfere with the absorption of vitamin b12, which can decrease the effectiveness of mecobalamin.
Antibiotics: certain antibiotics, such as tetracyclines and aminoglycosides, can interfere with the absorption of vitamin b12, which can decrease the effectiveness of mecobalamin.
Disease interactions
Leber's disease: mecobalamin may worsen symptoms of leber's disease, a genetic condition that affects the optic nerve and can cause vision loss.
Polycythemia vera: mecobalamin may increase the production of red blood cells, which can worsen the symptoms of polycythemia vera, a condition in which the bone marrow produces too many red blood cells.
Hypokalemia: mecobalamin may cause hypokalemia, a condition in which the blood potassium level is too low. Hypokalemia can lead to muscle weakness, cramps, and heart rhythm abnormalities.
Renal failure: mecobalamin may accumulate in the body in patients with renal failure, which can increase the risk of side effects.
Gastrointestinal disorders: patients with gastrointestinal disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, and atrophic gastritis may have difficulty absorbing vitamin b12, which can lead to deficiency and may require higher doses of mecobalamin.
Food interactions
There are no known food interactions with mecobalamin, which is a form of vitamin b12. Mecobalamin is commonly found in foods such as meat, fish, and dairy products, and can also be taken as a dietary supplement.
However, certain dietary factors can affect the absorption of vitamin b12 in the body. For example, a diet low in animal products may lead to vitamin b12 deficiency, and high doses of vitamin c can interfere with the absorption of vitamin b12. Additionally, consumption of alcohol may interfere with the absorption of vitamin b12 in the body.
