ABSTRACT
Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is on alarming rise in India. Drug utilization studies help to identify the adherence to standard guidelines and extent of drug use and to evaluate the rational drug usage.
Aims and objectives: To determine the drug utilization pattern and effectiveness of oral hypoglycemic agents among diabetes mellitus patients.
Materials and methods: It is a prospective observational study carried out for a period of six months at RIMS kadapa, and two others diabetic centers. The diabetic patients who visited the medicine outpatient department were included. After obtaining approval from institutional ethical committee, a structured data collection form was used to collect demographic data, complete prescription details and other relevant information required for the study. The drug utilization pattern was determined. The drugs were categorized by Anatomical therapeutic classification (ATC) and DDD/1000 inhabitants/day was calculated by using WHO guidelines. Among all oral hypoglycemic agents the most effective drug/combination in this region was identified.
RESULTS:  716 prescriptions were assessed out of which,401(56.0%) were females and 315(43.9%) were males, most of the patients were in the age group of 40-60 for males 175(55%) and females 205(51.1%). Hypertension was the most common co-morbid seen. The average number of drugs per prescription was 4.26 and anti-diabetics per prescription was 1.79. DDD/1000 inhabitants/day for metformin (A10BA02) was 10.5, glimiperide (A10BB12) was 9.3, glibenclamide (A10BB01) was 7.91, pioglitazone (A10BG03) was 7.25. Out of 716 patients 311(45.25%) patients were on Monotherapy, and 405 (56.5%) were on Combination therapy.A total of 200 newly diagnosed patients of diabetes mellitus were enrolled in the study out of which only 128 members were followed up successfully. The combinations of Metformin +Sulfonyl Ureas + Others showed a good control of fasting blood sugar when compared with only Metformin, only Sulfonyl Ureas or Metformin +Sulfonyl Ureas, Sulfonyl Ureas + Others.
Conclusion: Metformin was the most utilized drug followed by glimiperide. Combination therapy was most frequent when compared to monotherapy in which metformin+glimiperide was commonly prescribed one. so by understanding  the current prescribing patterns attempts can be made to improve rational prescribing. The combination of Metformin+Sulfonyl Ureas+Others is more effective combination.

ABSTRACT:
The simple spectroscopic method has been developed for simultaneous estimation of Lamotrigine and Clozapine in synthetic mixture. Absorbance Correction Method involves the measurement of absorption at two wavelengths 307 nm (l_maxfor Lamotrigine) and 360 nm (l_max for Clozapine). The method was found linear between the range of 1-5 µg/ml for Lamotrigine and 6-30 µg/ml for Clozapine for method. The accuracy and precision was determined and validated statistically. Both the method showed good reproducibility and recovery with %RSD less than 1. The method was found to be rapid, specific, precise and accurate and can be successfully applied for the routine analysis for Lamotrigine and Clozapine in bulk and combined dosage form.

ABSTRACT
Epilepsy is a chronic disorder characterized by the occurrence of epileptic seizures, with or without characteristic body movements (convulsion)affecting about 50 million people worldwide. Synthetic drugs for the treatment of epilepsy are associated with severe side effects and addiction liabilities upon long term uses. Thus, researchers around the globe are searching for natural resources.Erythrinavariegata and Butea monosperma is a traditional medicinal plant used to treat a seizure.The present studies reveal that the anticonvulsant activity by Erythrina variegate & Butea monosperma of bark & leaf PTZ and MES induced convulsions in wistar rats using Erythrina variegata & Butea monosperma of bark & leaf ethanolic extracts extracted successively. However, the anticonvulsant activity of this plant has not been studied in depth.

In Pentylene tetrazole (PTZ) an maximal electro shock seizure(MES) models test parameters like latncy, onset of tonic convulsions, clonic convulsions and percent protection were observed in the different test groups. Inconclusion, we showed that the ethanolic extract of Erythrina variegata and Butea monosperma has anticonvulsant effect in the both models, suggesting their possible depressant action in the central nervous system. EEBM and EEEV gave significant protection (P<0.001) against PTZ & MES induce convulsion.

ABSTRACT
A simple, accurate and precise spectroscopic method was developed for simultaneous estimation of Itopride Hydrochloride and Lansoprazole in synthetic mixture using first order derivative zero-crossing method. Itopride Hydrochlorideshowed zero crossing point at 278.12nmwhile Lansoprazole showed zero crossing point at 244.58nm. The dA/dλ was measured at 244.12 nm for Itopride Hydrochloride and 278.12nmfor Lansoprazole and calibration curves were plotted as dA/dλ versus concentration, respectively. The method was found to be linear (r2>0.999) in the range of 5-25μg/ml for Itopride Hydrochloride at 244.58nm. The linear correlation was obtained (r2>0.996) in the range of 5-25 μg/ml for Lansoprazole at 278.12 nm. The limit of determination was 0.155μg/ml and 0.059μg/ml forItopride Hydrochloride and Lansoprazole, respectively. The limit of quantification was 0.472μg/ml and 0.179μg/ml for Itopride Hydrochloride and Lansoprazolerespectively. The accuracy of these method were evaluated by recovery studies and good recovery result were obtained greater than 99% shows first order derivation zero crossing. The method was successfully applied for simultaneous determination of Itopride Hydrochloride and Lansoprazolein binary mixture.

ABSTRACT:
The simple, accurate and precise Absorption Correction Method has been developed for the simultaneous estimation of Amitriptyline hydrochloride and Methylcobalamin in combined tablet dosage form. The method utilizes distilled water as solvent and λmax of Amitriptyline hydrochloride and Methylcobalamin selected for analysis were found to be 239 nm and 351 nm respectively. The method was validated as per International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. The Linearity range lies between 20-60 µg/ml (R² 0.9998) for Amitrityline hydrochloride and 3-9 µg/ml (R² 0.9990) for methylcobalamin. The accuracy and precision were determined and found to comply with ICH guidelines. The method showed good reproducibility and recovery with %RSD in desired range. The proposed method can be applied for routine analysis of both drugs.
