6. Study of the interaction of aluminium with gluconic acid / ESTUDO DA INTERAÇÃO DO ALUMÍNIO COM O ÁCIDO GLUCÔNICO
Parenteral solutions are used for patients with complexes diseases, for pre-term infants and surgical patients. The administration of solutions contaminated by aluminium for a long period of time can lead to severe intoxication, with consequent bone and neurological diseases. Considering that, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has been investigating the

7. Determination of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA - Ecstasy), 3,4-methylenedioxyethylamphetamine (MDEA - Eve) and 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA) in biological fluids by high-performance liquid chromatography: forensic aspect / Determinação de 3,4-metilenodioximetanfetamina (MDMA - Ecstasy), 3,4-metilenodioxietilanfetamina (MDEA - Eve) e 3,4-metilenodioxianfetamina (MDA) em fluidos biológicos por cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência: aspecto forense
There is a worldwide increase in the use of the synthetic drugs of abuse known as designer drugs. The main representatives of this class are Ecstasy or 3,4-methylenodioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and Eve or 3,4- methylenodioxyethylamphetamine (MDEA), substances with stimulant and hallucinogenic effects. In Brazil media coverage of them is on the increase and th

8. Involuntary movements caused by phenytoin intoxication in epileptic patients.
The case histories of four patients who developed choreoathetoid movements during intoxication with phenytoin are presented. Drug intoxication was confirmed in each case by measuring the serum phenytoin concentration. Drug interactions were, in part, responsible for the occurrence of intoxication in three of them. Phenytoin intoxication is not always easy to

9. Digoxin intoxication: the relationship of clinical presentation to serum digoxin concentration
A radioimmunoassay for serum digoxin concentration has been used to study the interrelationships of circulating levels of the drug and various factors in the clinical setting in 48 hospitalized patients with cardiac rhythm disturbances due to digoxin intoxication. 131 patients on maintenance doses of digoxin without toxicity and 48 patients with equivocal ev

10. Reversal by phenytoin of carbamazepine-induced water intoxication: a pharmacokinetic interaction.
The hypothesis that phenytoin may antagonise the antidiuretic effect of carbamazepine has been examined by comparing the free water clearance response to a standard water load in 36 patients stabilised on different drug regimes. The diuretic response to the water load was significantly greater in patients receiving chronic treatment with carbamazepine and ph

11. Anticonvulsant peripheral neuropathy: a clinical and electrophysiological study of patients on single drug treatment with phenytoin, carbamazepine or barbiturates.
Previous studies of phenytoin neuropathy in selected groups of chronic epileptic patients on polytherapy have indicated a widely varying incidence of clinical or electrophysiological abnormalities. In 51 previously untreated epileptic patients followed prospectively on phenytoin or carbamazepine monotherapy, assisted by blood level monitoring, for 1-5 years

12. Electroencephalography and phenytoin toxicity in mentally retarded epileptic patients.
There were significantly more diffuse and focal electroencephalographic abnormalities in 127 mentally retarded epileptic patients treated with phenytoin than in 68 epileptics without phenytoin. Phenytoin intoxication made the difference still more pronounced. Monitoring drug levels and electroencephalograms appears to be the method of choice for ensuring saf
