Effect of carbamazepine on the pharmacokinetics of vepdegestrant, a PROteolysis TArgeting Chimera estrogen receptor degrader, in healthy adults

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim To evaluate the effects of carbamazepine, a strong cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4 inducer, on the pharmacokinetics and safety of vepdegestrant, a PROteolysis TArgeting Chimera estrogen receptor degrader. Methods This was a phase 1, open‐label, fixed‐sequence, two‐period study in healthy adult participants.

Voclosporin‐induced gingival enlargement: A case report

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Drug‐influenced gingival enlargement (DIGE) is a recognized adverse effect of certain medications, particularly immunosuppressants like cyclosporin and tacrolimus. However, there have been no documented cases of DIGE associated with voclosporin, a newer calcineurin inhibitor used primarily to treat lupus nephritis.

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Antiepileptic Drugs

Journal of Nepal Medical Association, 2008
Commonly used conventional antiepileptic drugs for pharmacotherapy in epilepsy are phenytoin, carbamazepine and valproic acid. These drugs have complex pharmacokinetic properties leading to fluctuation in their plasma level at given same therapeutic dose.

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

Epicutaneous and Drug Provocation Testing in Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reactions: A 20‐Year Single‐Centre Experience

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
This study provides reassuring evidence in favour of early skin testing in patients with SCARs, argues against the necessity of a 6‐month delay, and underscores the pivotal role of oral provocation tests in the safe reintroduction of essential therapies. ABSTRACT Background Identifying and discontinuing the offending drug(s) in severe cutaneous adverse
