A Prospective Study

Objective: To assess ADRs with reference to causative drugs, organ systems involved and seriousness of reactions.Methods: A prospective study conducted over a period of 1 y. The spontaneous adverse drug reactions reported between July 2016 and July 2017 at AMC centre BRIMS, Bidar were analyzed using Naranjo’s scale. Causality assessment of suspected drugs involved, system affected, and seriousness of reactions was assessed.Results: GIT system was most commonly involved, followed by generalized features, skin and appendages, CNS i. e, extrapyramidal system and dizziness, hearing and vestibular systems.Conclusion: Majority of the ADRs reported were mild to moderate severity and 20% can be categorized as severe reactions, which needed to treat under hospitalization

Background: The emergence of drug resistant mycobacteria has become a significant public health problem world over creating an obstacle to effective TB control. ADRs are common in patients of MDR-TB on DOTs-Plus drug regimen. Present study was carried out in tertiary care hospital. Identification of types and frequency of adverse drug reactions in Intensive and continuation phase of MDR-TB Patients.Methods: It was a prospective observational study conducted in Department of TB- Chest and Medicine, Govt. Medical College, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India. All the MDR-TB patients admitted at the directly observed treatment, short course plus (DOTS plus) Center at Medical College Hospital were enrolled and were monitored for ADRs. The causality and severity of the reactions were determined using Naranjo algorithm and Hartwig questionnaire, respectively.Results: A total of 121 tuberculosis patients of MDR-TB on DOTS therapy were enrolled for the study. Out of 121 patients, 13 were dropouts, 6 died, 7 defaulted so 108 patients assessed for ADRs, 48 patients developed 61 (56.48%) adverse drug reactions. The higher numbers of ADRs were observed in age group 31-40yrs followed by 21-30yrs which were more common in men. Majority of adverse drug reactions were Gastrointestinal (GI) problems 32 (52.45%), followed by Ototoxicity 7 (11.48%) and Psychiatric Manifestations 6 (9.84%) and skin problems 3 (4.92%). On evaluation of the causality of ADRs, majority were found to be Possible (59.02%). The severity assessment showed that most of the patients ADRs were of moderate level (50.82%).Some patients required treatment withdrawal and replacement with other drug and most of the patients were managed with supportive medication without removing anti-tubercular drug from their treatment regimen.Conclusions: ADRs are major factor limiting completion of drug therapy under RNTCP and occurrence of drug resistance which requires attention of all health care professionals.

Background: Besides unparalleled advantages, exceptionally dynamic antiretroviral treatment is additionally connected with extensive variety of potential adverse drug reactions (ADRs), which prevents treatment adherence. The present study is intended to screen and monitor the event of ADRs to different antiretroviral treatment (ART) regimens in a tertiary care ART setup.Methods: A prospective, longitudinal observational study was done in the outpatient setting of nodal ART center, Osmania General Hospital. A sum of 525 patients on different ART regimens were examined for ADRs more than year and a half. Adverse event history, prescription history and other significant subtle elements were captured. Causality and seriousness of each announced ADR were surveyed.Results: 37.33% patients of aggregate members gave a sum of 330 ADRs. Patients from zidovudine-based regimens presented with majority of ADRs such as anemia, central nervous system (CNS), and gastrointestinal (GI) side effects. Tenofovir-based regimens were, be that as it may, observed to be somewhat more secure. The blend with Efavirenz was related with significant CNS reactions while that of Nevirapine was related with rash and pigmentation of nails. Atazanavir supported second-line regimens were quite connected with expanded serum lipid levels taken after by other GI and CNS unfavourable impacts. Expanded liver compounds were found in atazanavir-based second-line ART.Conclusions: The study enables to obtain in sequence on the incidence and pattern of ADRs associated with various antiretroviral regimens, thereby reducing its occurrence and protecting the patient population from avoidable harm. Need of intensive monitoring for ADRs in ARTs along these lines is by all accounts an order.
