Capsaicin ameliorate the nephrotoxicity induced by methotrexate
Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021 Although methotrexate (MTX) is an effective immunosuppressive and anti-cancer agent, it is associated with side effects, including nephrotoxicity. Capsaicin, a component of hot chilli peppers, induces rapid desensitization of TRPV1 pain receptors and ...

Could calcitonin gene‐related peptide inhibitors prevent status epilepticus?
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) inhibitors modulate pain and neuroinflammation, a recognized contributor to epileptogenesis and status epilepticus (SE). We examined the association between CGRP inhibitor use and SE hospitalization in epilepsy patients with comorbid migraine.

Pregabalin Efficacy in Treatment of Chronic Neurogenic Cough
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.The use of neuromodulators for chronic cough has increased; however, the choice of medication, dosing regimen, and duration are still unclear. This longitudinal study of 95 adults taking pregabalin, 75 mg twice daily, for CNC demonstrated 78% improvement or resolution of cough, 17% unchanged, 1% worse cough, with a mean of 6 weeks of therapy, and only ...
