Abstract

Arthritis, a diverse spectrum of joint disorders, is characterized by chronic pain and inflammation. Osteoarthritis (OA), the most prevalent form, leads to disabling pain, functional limitations, and reduced mobility. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used for managing OA pain, with ketoprofen recognized as one of the effective options. However, oral administration of ketoprofen may cause gastrointestinal irritation. Addressing this issue, Transdermal Drug Delivery Systems (TDDS) emerge as a promising alternative route of administration. TDDS facilitates delivery of various drugs through the skin without undergoing first-pass metabolism. Recent studies have centered on enhancing ketoprofen’s transdermal delivery, particularly focusing on different methods (such as patches, gels, electroporation technology, and stratum corneum bypass methods), with microneedles emerging as a promising approach for delivering anti-inflammatory drugs through transdermal routes. This review aims to explore recent advancements in transdermal drug delivery systems for managing OA. The utilization of transdermal ketoprofen presents innovative opportunities for future research and development in novel drug delivery systems.

Abstract

Antihypertensive and antidiabetic drugs in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing hemodialyThe high demand for telepharmacy services led to the urge for proper training and education to enhance its quality. This review aimed to assess the implementation and outcomes of telepharmacy training and education programmes. This scoping review was conducted on ScienceDirect, Sage Journal, SpringerLink, and Google Scholar databases using keywords “training” OR “education” AND “telepharmacy,” “training” OR “education” AND “digital competency” AND “pharmacy.” Only English-written articles published between 2000 – 2023, original research and brief report were included in this review. Eight of 171 articles met the criteria and the study’s objectives. Those studies discussed telepharmacy learning programmes for pharmacy students in the USA (5 articles), UAE (2 articles), and Malaysia (1 article). The learning methods included didactic learning, case-based study, simulation/roleplay, and clerkship employing technological tools. Rubrics, quizzes, questionnaires, and objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) were used as assessment methods. All studies reported improved students’ knowledge, perceptions, and telepharmacy competencies. In conclusion, the telepharmacy learning programmes have effectively upgraded students’ knowledge and skills by various methods at every level. However, there remains a considerable need for evidence on suitable training for pharmacists to improve their telepharmacy competencies and service quality.
