CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 16 ]TNF, originally termed "cachectin" because of its ability to produce a wasting syndrome, is composed of two closely related proteins: mature TNF (TNF-a) and lymphotoxin (TNF-b), both of which are recognized by the same cell-surface receptors. There are two types of TNF receptors, a 75-kd type 1 receptor and a 55-kd type 2 receptor. IL-1 and TNF produce many of the same proinflammatory responses. A naturally occurring IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), competes with IL-1 for receptor binding, blo ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 3 ]EXCLUSION CRITERIAAll pharmacists not practicing as community pharmacistsAll patent medicine vendors and outlets2.4 SAMPLE SIZE DETERMINATIONa. Retrospective review of prescriptions: All prescriptions from November 2013 and April 2014 were obtained from the Outpatient Pharmacy Department prescription bank. The prescriptions containing NSAIDs were separated from those without NSAIDs.b. Ilorin metropolis is made up of three local government areas: Ilorin West, Ilori ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER THREE - [ Total Page(s): 8 ]CHAPTER THREE RESULTS3.1 RESULTS OF ANALYSIS OF PRESCRIPTIONS/TREATMENT SHEETSOut of 1497 prescription sheets 1297 prescriptions contained NSAIDs with total of 1392 NSAIDs. The prescribing rate was hence found to be 86.6%. 7.3% of prescriptions contained more than one NSAIDs. ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER FOUR - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER FOURDISCUSSIONStudy of the Prescribing pattern of Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs indicated more number of females assess health care for pain and related conditions than their male counterpart (Table 3.1), although there is widespread assumption that women will consult more readily for all symptoms or conditions and that men will be more reluctant or will delay consulting may result in health care providers assuming that women have a lower level of symptom severity before deciding ...

CHAPTER FIVE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER FIVE CONCLUSIONThe prescribing rate of NSAIDs was high. The prevalence of NSAIDs misuse by residents was high Ibuprofen was the most highly misused among the residents. Dispensing pattern of NSAIDs by Pharmacists appeared to agree with the choice of medication use among residents. Educational status, occupation, prior knowledge of medication use and dispensing pattern of Pharmacists are factors that can influence public choice of NSAIDs use. ... Continue reading---
