Fluorimetric determination of chloroxine using manual and flow-injection methods.

A reliable and highly sensitive method is described for the determination of chloroxine in pharmaceutical preparations. It involves the formation of a complex between chloroxine and aluminum(III) in a micellar medium. The complex is a very fluorescent species, and there is a linear relationship between chloroxine concentration and fluorescence intensity over the range 2.0 x 10(-8)-5.1 x 10(-5) mol l-1. The limit of detection is 5 x 10(-9) mol l-1. The method can be easily adapted to a flow system using a three-channel manifold, the peak height being proportional to the chloroxine concentration over the range 5.6 x 10(-7)-5.6 x 10(-5) mol l-1. Manual and flow-injection procedures permit the determination of chloroxine in the presence of chlorquinaldol, and have been successfully applied to the determination of chloroxine in pharmaceutical preparations.

Quantitative determination of drugs in biological materials by means of extractive alkylation and gas-liquid chromatography.

Analytical methods utilizing extractive alkylation followed by gas-liquid chromatography are described for the quantitative determination of (neo)sulfalepsine and its metabolites, chlorthalidone and chlorquinaldol. The applications described indicate that, for the use of this technique, careful optimization and the introduction of a suitable internal standard at the beginning of the analytical manipulations are essential.

Experimental sensitization of guinea pigs by drugs. Comparison of the maximization test with the wholly intradermal test.

The capacity of tegobetain, pyrrolnitrin, tolcyclate and chlorquinaldol to induce delayed-type contact sensitization was studied in guinea pigs in 2 series of tests using the method of Magnusson & Kligman and the authors' modification of the wholly intradermal Draize technique. Histological examination of skin biopsies obtained from the test area demonstrated that tegobetain, pyrrolnitrin and tolcyclate are potential sensitizers.

Diflucortolone valerate. Asian experience.

More than 10 years ago, diflucortolone valerate (Nerisone, Nerisona) was introduced in Germany and soon after in Asian countries in a concentration of 0.1% in cream, ointment and fatty ointment bases. 897 patients were included in the first Southeast Asian multicentre trial with these 3 formulations, and good efficacy and tolerability combined with a rapid onset of effect were shown. These results were confirmed later in Indonesia in an extended follow-up trial which included 1295 patients. A combination of 0.1% diflucortolone valerate with 1.0% chlorquinaldol was introduced after a multicentre Southeast Asian trial involving 8668 patients with inflammatory or allergic skin conditions for which a supplementary anti-infective treatment, for prophylaxis or therapy, was considered to be indicated. Excellent results were obtained in terms of efficacy, tolerability and cosmetic properties. A randomised double-blind trial comparing this preparation with a so-called 'shotgun' combination containing 0.05% betamethasone 17-valerate, 0.1% gentamicin, 1.0% tolnaftate and 1.0% clioquinol in 288 patients in the Philippines resulted in a better efficacy for the diflucortolone preparation in the 80 patients with bacterially or mycotically infected skin diseases. A 0.3% concentration of diflucortolone valerate was developed and introduced as a high potency topical corticosteroid. A trial in the Philippines which involved 143 patients with mostly severe chronic recurrent and resistant corticosteroid-responsive skin disease confirmed a pronounced clinical efficacy with a low incidence of side effects. For the treatment of inflammatory or eczematised dermatomycosis. 0.1% diflucortolone was combined with 1.0% isoconazole nitrate (Travocort). In a randomised double-blind study of 294 patients in Thailand, this preparation was compared with a plain 1.0% clotrimazole formulation. The results were significantly better for the diflucortolone plus isoconazole nitrate combination in terms of remission of symptoms, and after 1 week the mycological cure rates were also better, as shown in potassium hydroxide and culture investigations. It is concluded, therefore, that diflucortolone valerate in the available galenic bases and in effective combinations with other agents has been proven in extensive clinical trials to be a valuable therapeutic tool in dermatological practice.

[Extraction of components from hydrocortisone mixtures using high pressure thin layer chromatography ].

Chromatographic conditions for the separation of five pairs of active compounds occuring in four ointment preparations and an aerosol one were elaborated. The ways of extraction of hydrocortisone esters (acetate and butyrate), chlorquinaldol, oxytetracycline base and oxytetracycline hydrochloride from the ointments as well as purification of the extracts prior to the HPLC analysis were described. The proposed analytical methods are for more specific and precise from those used until now in the home-made preparations quality control.

[The symptomatic therapy of hemorrhoids and anal eczema--a report of experiences from proctology practice].

Besides the various operative procedures, which nowadays have come into use in hemorrhoidal disorders, drug therapy as well continues to keep an important place. Its main conditions of application are inflammatory processes before, between and after hemorrhoidal sclerosis or proctological operations. In a clinical study suppositories with the corticoid fluocortolone-21-pivalate and the local anesthetic lidocaine hydrochloride as well as a cream with the same substances and in addition, chlorquinaldol were tested in 92 patients with hemorrhoidal diseases and their concomitant conditions. In 92% of the cases efficacy of the preparations proved to be good or very good, and in all cases they were well tolerated.

A comparative multicentre trial of halometasone/triclosan cream and diflucortolone valerate/chlorquinaldol cream in the treatment of acute dermatomycoses.

In this multicentre, between-patient trial the efficacy and tolerability of a cream, containing 0.05% halometasone and 1% triclosan, was compared with those of Nerisona C cream, containing 0.1% diflucortolone valerate and 1% chlorquinaldol, in 183 patients with acute dermatomycoses. Halometasone/triclosan cream and the comparative cream showed closely similar results with respect to good to very good therapeutic effects (60% versus 57%). However, halometasone/triclosan cream proved superior to the comparative preparation with regard to very good (cured) results (53% versus 46%), an early cure in less than 30 days (41% versus 34%) and onset of action within 3 days of starting the treatment (32% versus 18%). Mycological findings were positive on direct microscopy in 36% and 43% and in culture in 19% and 17% of the patients following treatment with halometasone/triclosan cream and the comparative cream preparation, respectively. Adverse effects were reported in seven out of 108 patients treated with halometasone/triclosan cream and in five out of 107 patients treated with the comparative preparation.

[Vaginal mesh extrusion after transvaginal repair of cystocele using a prosthetic mesh: Treatment and functional outcomes].

OBJECTIVE: To describe management of vaginal mesh erosion following transvaginal repair of acystocele by placement of a polypropylene mesh. MATERIALS AND METHOD: Retrospective analysis of 34 consecutive cases of vaginal mesh erosion following transvaginal repair of cystocele using synthetic mesh (Gynemesh or Gynemesh-Soft). We have analyzed the results of both medical and surgical management of this complication. Furthermore, we also assessed sexual and urinary morbidity in women with mesh erosion (n = 34) and in women who had undergone the same procedure but without mesh erosion (n = 111). RESULTS: Among the 34 patients with vaginal mesh erosion, 23 (68%) have undergone local therapy using Colposeptine (Chlorquinaldol + Promestriène). In 12 (52%) cases no modification of the surface of the erosion was observed. In 6 (26%) cases, a decrease of the surface of the mesh erosion was observed. In 5 (22%) cases the mesh erosion had completely disappeared, with a follow-up of 2 to 9 months. Nineteen symptomatic patients (19/32, 59%) required partial (n = 18) or complete (n = 1) excision of the mesh, associated with vaginal mucosal closure, under general anaesthesia. Duration of operation ranged from 15 to 40 minutes for partial excision of the mesh. This procedure was successful in 14 cases (77%). Four women required repeated resection of the mesh because of recurrence. The incidence of de novo dyspareunia was 12% in patients with vaginal mesh erosion, and 11% in patients without mesh erosion (p = 0.81). The incidence of urge urinary symptoms and voiding dysfunction symptoms was respectively 8% versus 9% (p = 0.95), and 8% versus 10% (p = 0.81) in the 2 groups. CONCLUSION: Management of vaginal mesh erosion is simple and is associated with a low rate of morbidity. However, patients should be informed that vaginal erosion of the mesh can occur.

Duodeno-pancreatic secretions enhance bactericidal activity of antimicrobial drugs.

We have studied the action of various antimicrobial agents in microbiological media and in human duodeno-pancreatic secretions. In the latter medium, clioquinol exhibited a rapid bactericidal effect on both growing and stationary bacteria at concentrations near its MIC. However, it was merely bacteriostatic in microbiological media, even at high concentrations. Phanquinone, chlorquinaldol, and, to a lesser extent, also chloramphenicol and trimethoprim likewise displayed enhanced bactericidal activity in duodeno-pancreatic secretions, but various other antibacterial agents did not. These findings suggest that duodeno-pancreatic secretions contain a factor augmenting the antibacterial activity of a number of drugs.
