- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Rhabdomyolysis is a clinical syndrome that results in releasing myoglobin content from damaged muscle cells into circulation and often causes acute kidney injury (1). Different mechanisms are considered to be responsible in rhabdomyolysis and renal failure. However, free radical generation is the most important mechanism resulting in kidney injury. Thus, the effect of various antioxidants has been investigated. Acetaminophen, with antioxidant ability in therapeutic dose, has shown a considerable protective effect on kidney after muscle injury. The investigations have shown that acetaminophen enhances renal function, decreases renal damage and reduces oxidant injury. The aim of this review was to summarize proven evidences for etiology to renal injury and abilities of acetaminophen in reducing it.
Methods: Articles published from 2010 to 2017 in PubMed and Google Scholar were covered in this review. The articles investigating the role of free radical in renal injury following Rhabdomylosis were searched using the keywords Rhabdomyolysis, kidney and oxidative stress. The keywords used to find articles regarding antioxidant ability of acetaminophen were antioxidant and acetaminophen.
Conclusion: With assessment of evidences form antioxidant capacity of acetaminophen and mechanism of renal failure in Rhabdomyolysis, this drug can be useful for prevention and treatment of kidney injury especially following rhabdomyolysis.- انتشار مقاله: 26-09-1397

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) is considered as an efficient and effective treatment in management of high risk opioids addiction; although, concomitant use of other drugs may interfere with treatment course and outcome in MMT cases. This study aimed at evaluating patterns of drug use along with methadone based on self reported and urine analysis data in two MMT clinics.
Methods: 135 patients on MMT recruited for this cross-sectional study which was conducted from March to September 2014. Data were obtained of MMT clinic of Imam Reza (p) hospital, Mashhad, Iran. After completing a written informed consent, a questionnaire including demographic information, duration of MMT, methadone dose, concomitant medication and other related information was fulfilled. Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 16.
Results: Mean (SD) age of patients was 42.8 (12.2). All patients were taking medication along with methadone. The most prevalent drug classes were antidepressants (32%) and benzodiazepines (BNZD) (25%). The next three drug groups were analgesics, GI and cardiovascular drugs respectively. Antidepressant and benzodiazepine use was more prevalent in patients who were on MMT for at least 7 months compared with shorter courses. Antidepressant use was more common in patients on maximum dose of 30 mg/day methadone while BNZD use was more frequent in patients on doses higher than 30 mg/d.
Conclusion: Psychiatric drug use is common in opioid addicted cases. BNZD and antidepressant drugs were two most consumed drugs in cases on MMT based on our study. Psychiatric drug consumption was more common in patients on higher length of methadone use. Dosage of methadone may affect kind of concomitant drug use. Physicians should be aware of interactions between psychiatric medications and opioids.- انتشار مقاله: 02-11-1395
