Abstract

Respiratory Tract Infection is an infection affecting the respiratory tract structures, damaging the gas exchange process from the nose to the alveoli, lasting up to 14 days, and is typically contagious. Upper Respiratory Tract Infection (URTI) is a disease with a high prevalence, causing nearly 4 million deaths each year. This study aims to determine the pattern of antibiotic use and the appropriateness of drug administration based on indications, dosage, and frequency at a health center in Karawang Regency. The research was conducted retrospectively from patient medical records and analyzed quantitatively. The results show that 121 patients in this study used antibiotics. Based on gender, 52.89% were male and 47.10% were female. The most common age category was early adulthood (26-35 years) at 26.44%. The antibiotics used were Amoxicillin (57.02%), Cefixime (22.31%), and Cotrimoxazole (20.66%). The accuracy of drug use with appropriate indications was 100%, the appropriateness of dosage was 99.17%, and the appropriateness of frequency was 100%.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop and characterize a nanophytosome system containing combined extracts of bay leaf (Syzygium polyanthum) and binahong leaf (Anredera cordifolia), and to evaluate its wound healing activity through in vivo study. The extracts were prepared by maceration using 96% ethanol and characterized through phytochemical screening and LC-MS/MS analysis. Nanophytosomes were formulated using phospholipid complexes with variations of surfactants, followed by homogenization and sonication. The formulations were evaluated for particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, and entrapment efficiency. The results showed that particle size ranged from 16.30 to 927.18 nm, with the smallest size observed in Tween 80-based formulation. The polydispersity index ranged from 0.20 to 0.86, indicating better homogeneity in Tween 80 systems. Zeta potential values ​​were in the range of −6 to −17 mV, suggesting moderate stability. Entrapment efficiency was high in all formulations (92.5–97.3%), with the highest value observed in Cremophor-based formulation. In vivo evaluation demonstrated that the nanophytosome significantly accelerated wound healing compared to control groups, as indicated by faster wound contraction and improved tissue regeneration. In conclusion, the nanophytosome system enhanced the physicochemical properties and delivery of bioactive compounds, showing potential as an effective therapeutic approach for wound healing.

Abstract

Indonesia sebagai negara tropis memiliki keragaman hayati yang melimpah, termasuk tanaman kratom (Mitragyna speciosa Korth.) yang dikenal memiliki aktivitas farmakologis potensial. Studi ini bertujuan untuk meninjau aktivitas farmakologis kratom melalui kajian literatur deskriptif dari berbagai publikasi ilmiah yang relevan. Metode yang digunakan adalah kajian literatur dengan mencari artikel-artikel yang memuat informasi tentang aktivitas farmakologi kratom. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa kratom memiliki beragam aktivitas farmakologis, antara lain antinosiseptif, antikanker, antimikroba, antidiabetes (penghambatan α-glukosidase), analgesik, ansiolitik, antiinflamasi, dan antidepresan. Senyawa utama dalam kratom, seperti mitraginin dan 7-hidroksimitraginin, memiliki peran penting dalam aktivitas terapeutiknya. Namun, meskipun demikian, bukti ilmiah yang ada masih terbatas, terutama dalam hal evaluasi preklinis dan klinis yang terstandarisasi. Penggunaan kratom juga masih menimbulkan kekhawatiran terkait potensi ketergantungan dan efek psikoaktif yang berisiko. Kesimpulannya, kratom memiliki potensi besar sebagai terapi alternatif, namun penggunaan kratom harus disertai dengan penelitian lebih lanjut untuk mengevaluasi keamanan jangka panjang, dosis yang optimal, dan regulasi yang tepat.

Abstract

Pharmacist-led interventions, particularly through education and counselling, play an essential role in supporting treatment adherence and improving the quality of life of breast cancer patients. This article aims to review the influence of pharmacist interventions—such as medication counseling, side effect management, and adherence monitoring—on patient understanding, psychological aspects, and quality-of-life indicators. Results from various experimental studies and randomized controlled trials suggest that structured pharmacist interventions can improve patient understanding, reduce anxiety, and support adherence to long-term therapies such as tamoxifen and chemotherapy. Improvements were also observed in various domains of quality of life, including physical, emotional, and social functioning. However, some studies show inconsistent results, especially in terms of statistical differences in changes in quality of life, which may be due to factors such as sample size, duration of intervention, or other variables, including family support and disease prognosis. Overall, the involvement of pharmacists is an integral part of oncology care, serving as both an educator and a long-term therapy companion.
