IMMUNODEFICIENCY: HIV weakens the immune system by destroying important cells that fight disease and infection. VIRUS: A virus can only reproduce itself by taking over a cell in the body of its host. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). HIV is similar like other viruses, including those that cause the “flu” or the common cold. But there is a difference because over time the immune system can clear most viruses out of the body. However with HIV the immune system is unable to fight. HOW DOES HIV HARM THE BODY? HIV is best known for targeting the T cells of the immune system. The immune system is made up of specialized cells in the bloodstream that fight off invading germs to keep the body healthy. The “T” cells (also referred to as “T4,” “helper-T,” or “CD4” cells) are the brains of the operation. These white blood cells identify invaders and give orders to soldier-type cells, which then battle various bacteria, viruses, cancers, fungi, and parasites. Like all viruses, the HIV is only interested in one thing: reproducing itself. Once it has attacked and moved into a T cell, it converts that cell into a miniature virus factory. Eventually there are so many new viruses in the cell that the T cell explodes, scattering the HIV back into the bloodstream. The virus then moves on to fresh T cells and repeats the process. Over time, the HIV can destroy virtually all of an infected person’s T cells in this mechanism.

If any of those fluids enter your body, you can become infected with HIV. Human body fluids that contain high levels of HIV are blood, semen, breast milk, vaginal fluids and rectal mucus. 13 Denggi Update 14 Teknik Penggunaan Inhaler HAART-Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy 15 Penggunaan Accuhaler Goal: to suppress HIV replication and to slow down the cycle of immune activation and CD4+ cell destruction as effectively and for as long as possible. The aim would be to reduce plasma viral load to below undetectable levels for a maximum duration and to improve, maintain and prevent the ongoing decline of CD4+ cells. 16 Penggunaan Handihaler 17 Kawalan iklan ubat dan Compliance with therapy is one of the major determinants of ensuring a durable response. In all situations the patient must be agreeable and committed to taking what may be a complex and toxic drug regime before commencing therapy. Given the number of possible drug combinations, it is not possible to recommend which particular regimens are best for treatment of HIV disease. Factors that will influence that decision will include: the condition of the patient (stage of the disease as well as any concomitant illnesses), the potency and adverse effects of the regimen, any concurrent therapies and finally, the cost of the regimen.

When initiating therapy in the patient naive to antiretroviral therapy, one should begin with a regimen that is expected to achieve sustained suppression of plasma HIV RNA (ie. HAART), a sustained increase in CD4+ T cell count, and a favorable clinical outcome (i.e., delayed progression to AIDS and death). Additional consideration should be given to the regimen’s pill burden, dosing frequency, food requirements, convenience, toxicity, and drug interaction profile compared with other regimens.

Clinical aspects-effective therapy, clinical signs and symptoms should gradually improve or disappear. 2. CD4+ / CD8+ cell counts should be regularly monitored i.e. 3 – 6 monthly. 3. Viral load (VL) monitoring is necessary in patients who are on optimal antiretroviral therapy 4. Others: full blood counts, liver and renal profile, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, creatinine kinase (if on zidovudine), serum amylase (if using didanosine, zalcitabine). 5. If patients are on protease inhibitors, 6-monthly serum lipid and 3-monthly blood sugar assays should be performed. 6. Hyperglycemia is treated according to standard diabetic protocols. 7. Raised serum lipids should be approached with dietary advice and counseling, failing which lipid - lowering therapy may need to be commenced especially if other risk factors for ischaemic heart disease are present.

MTAC is operated by pharmacists through which drug therapy monitoring and patient education is provided to improve patients’ ability to successfully manage their disease condition, prevent debilitating symptoms and reduce the likelihood of medication errors. It also includes clinical pharmacokinetic consultations; laboratory monitoring and dosage adjustment for relevant medications. The MTAC covers various type of disease amongst other diabetes, respiratory, retroviral etc. As for the retroviral disease, pharmacists play an important role in providing pharmaceutical care to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) patients. By adopting the pharmaceutical care concept, pharmacist needs to cooperate with the patient and other professionals in designing, implementing and monitoring a therapeutic plan that will provide specific therapeutic outcomes for the patient. The Retroviral Disease (RVD) MTAC is the way forward to achieve the abovementioned purpose. The objectives of RVD MTAC are mainly to optimize the benefits of Highly Active Retroviral Therapy (HAART) and other therapies related to HIV patients as well as to assist patient to recognize and manage adverse drug effects due to HAART and other therapy. In RVD MTAC, the pharmacist will educate and counsel the followings: New patient prior to starting HAART (pre HAART) New patient on HAART (HAART) Patient requiring changes in HAART Patient with long standing adherence problems An average of 10 to 15 minutes per case will be spent for counseling; however, longer time (around 30 minutes) will be needed for newly referred cases. The workflow of RVD MTAC is based on the RVD Protocol, 1st Edition 2010, as published by the Pharmaceutical Services Division, Ministry of Health, Malaysia.

RMTAC had been established in KK Jinjang since January 2012. The current enrollment of patients were all asthmatic patients. Follow-up appointments were made for RMTAC participants with the pharmacist, usually once every month or every two months until their appointment with doctors. Below are the comparison of patients Asthma Control Score, ACT and Mean Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR) before and after enrolment into RMTAC. (Data is updated as of May 2012).

Just for Laughs! A pharmacist looks out the front of the store and sees a woman holding a bottle jumping up and down in the parking lot. The pharmacist walks out to the parking lot and asks the woman what’s the matter. She replies “I saw it said ‘Shake Well’ after I took it”. Educate the importance of compliance on controller inhalers. Educate patients on identifying asthma symptoms and action to be taken. (asthma care plan) Educate maximum dose and side effects of medication as well as method to reduce side effects. Suggest to doctor regarding asthma medication step up or step down management. Inform doctor if patients had other co-morbidity which worsens their asthma condition. Identify drug-drug interaction. 4 BAHAGIAN PERKHIDMATAN FARMASI, JABATAN KESIHATAN WILAYAH PERSEKUTUAN KUALA LUMPUR & PUTRAJAYA Vol 2, 2012 The Nuclear Pharmacy Unit of Hospital Putrajaya OVERVIEW SERVICES Nuclear Pharmacy seeks to improve and promote the public health through safe & effective use of radioactive drugs for diagnosis and therapy. A nuclear pharmacist specializes in the procurement, compounding, quality control testing, dispensing, distribution, and monitoring of radiopharmaceuticals. In addition, the nuclear pharmacist provides consultation regarding health and safety issues, as well as the use of non-radioactive drugs and patient care. The Nuclear Pharmacy Unit provides radiopharmaceutical services not only to Hospital Putrajaya, but also Hospital Pulau Pinang as well as private health institution within Klang Valley. The Nuclear Pharmacy Unit of Hospital Putrajaya has evolved into a modern, state-of-the-art, computerized facility with up-to-date equipment and a full complement of Nuclear Pharmacy staff. The unit also serves as a valuable information resource for other healthcare practitioners regarding new radiolabeled drugs and ligands and their proper use in patient care. CT Scan PET Scan PET/CT Scan* Organs and bones Cell activity Exact location of high cell activity These services include the daily production of FDG Putra Injection ([18F] FDG), synthesis of Ga-DOTATATE (currently for internal usage), dispensing of over 150 patient doses per month and ensuring the safe and effective use of these radiopharmaceuticals. WHAT IS FDG PUTRA INJECTION? Chemical name: 2-deoxy-2-[18F] fluoro-D-glucose, abbreviated [18F] FDG. Description: It is a radio labeled analog of glucose which is used for diagnostic purposes in conjunction with Positron Emission Tomography (PET). It is administered by intravenous route and rapidly distributed to all organs in the body. Cancerous cells are generally characterized by enhanced glucose metabolism partially due to an increase in activity of glucose transporters, an increased rate of phosphorylation activity, a reduction of phosphatase activity or a dynamic alteration in the balance among all these processes. Thus, FDG is indicated for assessment of abnormal glucose metabolism to assist in the evaluation of malignancy, identification of left ventricular myocardium with residual glucose metabolism and reversible loss of systolic function or abnormal glucose metabolism associated with foci of epileptic seizure. Before the procedure, patients’ blood glucose levels should be stabilized. PET imaging can be initiated within 40 minutes of administration of FDG Putra Injection and will be clear from most tissues within 24 hours, and eliminated from the body unchanged in the urine. WHAT IS Ga-68 DOTATATE? Ga-68 DOTATATE is a generator produced PET Radio-Pharmaceutical which allows clinical studies without an on-site cyclotron. It has a physical half-life of 68 min which is compatible with the pharmacokinetics of most radiopharmaceuticals of low molecular weight such as antibody, fragments, peptides, aptamers, oligonucleotides and others. Among other peptides, DOTATATE or (DOTA-D-phe-cys-tyr-Dtrp-lys-thr-cys-thr) is used to be labeled with Ga-68 for neuroendocrine tumour imaging such as insulinoma and malignant phaechromocytoma. DOTATATE is a somatostatin analogue with high affinity for somatostatin receptors expressed in cancer of neuroendocrine origin. CH2OH H OH H OH H O H 18 H OH F References 1.

However, for many drugs there is either no readily available measure of effect or it is insufficiently sensitive. In other cases it is difficult to distinguish between the progress of the disease and the pharmacological effects of a drug. It is in these situations that therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is an essential part of clinical management. TDM is the process of applying pharmacokinetic principles to determine the dosage regimens of specific drug products for specific patients to maximize pharmacotherapeutic effects and minimize toxic effects. Pharmacists have a vital role to play in TDM, offering advice to medical and nursing staff about the use of TDM, dose calculations and interpretation of the results obtained. This could involve recommending an appropriate drug regimen to maximize the efficacy and avoid drug toxicity. It usually takes into account dose, dosage interval and route, based on a number of patient-specific factors such as age, weight, and renal function. Pharmacists can also use their expertise to examine possible causes of unusual TDM results, which may arise from problems with bioavailability, drug interactions, noncompliance, sub therapeutic dose or medication errors. Application of these principles requires an understanding of the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion characteristics of specific drug products in specific diseases and patient populations. The influence of factors such as age, sex, diet, pathophysiologic conditions, and concomitant use of other drug products must also be understood. Benefits of TDM Used for treating diseases of which their clinical end points can hardly be monitored, e.g. blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac rhythm, blood sugar, blood cholesterol and triglycerides, urine volume, body temperature, inflammation, pain, and headache. For drugs with a poor relationship between dose and serum drug concentrations (SDC) For drugs with a good relationship between serum SDC and therapeutic/toxic effects For drugs with complicated/non-linear pharmacokinetics. When clinical signs of toxicity of drug difficult to recognized. For patients that have other co-morbidities which can alter pharmacokinetic parameters (e.g. congestive heart failure) Example of drugs in which TDM is useful • Antibiotics e.g. gentamicin, amikacin and vancomycin • Immunosuppressant e.g. cyclosporine • Cardiac drugs e.g. digoxin, lidocaine • Bronchodilator e.g. theophylline • Anticancer e.g. methotrexate • Psychoactive drugs e.g. lithium • Antiepileptic e.g. phenytoin, carbamazepine, valproic acid and phenobarbitone Proper drug monitoring will decrease duration of hospital stay, increase productivity of hospital staff and improve quality of life for patients. Therefore, input from pharmacists is very important in TDM, hence the need for a TDM pharmacist to undergo comprehensive training and continuing education in order to satisfy minimum standards of competency. They are also encouraged to participate in professional societies with an interest in TDM such as the International Association for Therapeutic Drug Monitoring and Clinical Toxicology. by Yeoh Suang Meng (formerly from KK Dato’ Keramat) 6 BAHAGIAN PERKHIDMATAN FARMASI, JABATAN KESIHATAN WILAYAH PERSEKUTUAN KUALA LUMPUR & PUTRAJAYA Vol 2, 2012 National Tuberculosis (TB) Control Program & Strategies The National TB Control Program was set up in 1961 to control and reduce the prevalence of TB throughout the country. The program, now under the Section of Communicable Diseases, Disease Control Division of the Department of Public Health, MOH, was decentralized in 1995 so that states are responsible for their own TB control and prevention measures. The objectives of the Malaysian TB Control Program, consistent with WHO objectives, are (i) to reduce the prevalence rate by half by 2010; (ii) to ensure an 85% cure rate among newly detected smear positive cases; (iii) to ensure that 100% of smear-positive cases are on Directly Observed Therapies (DOTS) by 2005 (iv) to detect at least 70% of estimated smear-positive cases. Strategies towards attaining the objectives of the TB Control Program include: (i) BCG vaccination for all newborn babies; (ii) Screening of symptomatic cases and high-risk groups (mandatory screening of foreign workers and HIV patients in prisons and drug rehabilitation centers) (iii) Raising awareness of the disease through the mass media (iv) Training health staff about the disease (v) Conducting research related to TB epidemiology and treatment outcomes. ALL IN A DAY’S WORK! However, TB still remains the most serious infectious disease in Malaysia, in terms of incidence and deaths. The key challenges that remain in combating TB in Malaysia include: (i) Increasing awareness of the disease among clinicians, medical personnel and the public. (i) Reducing poverty and optimizing access to medical facilities, especially in rural and remote areas. (ii) Ensuring 100 per cent of identified cases are incorporated into the DOTS program (iii) Achieving more effective follow-up of patients who are defaulting on their treatment regime; (iv) improving the screening and routine monitoring of infected migrant workers to increase treatment and reduce infection; (v) Curbing the accelerating occurrence of co-infection with HIV (vi) Pre-empting and/or dealing with the rise of multi-drug resistant TB Disediakan oleh KK Setapak 7 Vol 2, 2012 BAHAGIAN PERKHIDMATAN FARMASI, JABATAN KESIHATAN WILAYAH PERSEKUTUAN KUALA LUMPUR & PUTRAJAYA Quality Use of Medicine – Consumer (QUM-C) Irrational drug usage has been identified as one of the global issues during 2nd “International Conference on Improving the Use of Medicine” held on April 2004. From a research carried out by WHO in 2002, 50% from overall prescribed, dispensed or sold medication are irrational and it was reported that 50% of the patient failed to use medication the right way. Thus, this leads to the implementation of Quality Use of Medicine – Consumer (QUM-C) by Ministry of Health to deal with this important issue. Below are the specific objectives of QUM-C: 1. To increase consumer awareness on rational use of medicine and their right to get information on medication. 2. To provide knowledge on issues related to medicine and health. 3. To provide educational program to improve the consumer’s knowledge Adverse Drug Reaction. A total of 69 activities were carried out from January – June of 2012 in all health clinics, hospital and headquarters of Pharmaceutical Services Division; Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya.

Virus ini tergolong di dalam keluarga Togaviridae. Ia merupakan virus yang berkembang biak dalam serangga. Terdapat empat jenis ‘serotype’ virus yang telah dikenalpasti iaitu Den 1, Den 2, Den 3 dan den 4. Semua jenis serotype ini boleh meransang meransang pembentukan antibodi yang berbeza-beza. Namun begitu kekebalan yang dihasilkan oleh pertahanan badan tidak menyeluruh terhadap semua jenis virus denggi. Ia akan hanya melindungi individu untuk jenis virus tersebut sahaja. Virus ini masuk ke dalam peredaran darah manusia melalui gigitan nyamuk aedes dan boleh didapati dalam tempoh yang singkat sahaja iaitu 4 hingga 5 hari pada tahap awal penyakit. Statistik Denggi Bagi tempoh 1 Januari hingga 30 Jun 2012, sebanyak 11 794 kes denggi telah dilaporkan manakala 24 kematian denggi telah dicatatkan di Malaysia. Kebanyakan kes dilaporkan di kawasan urban, di mana 46% (5 422) daripada kes tersebut dilaporkan di negeri Selangor manakala 10% (1129) dilaporkan di WPKL & Putrajaya. Bagi WPKL dan Putrajaya, ini merupakan peningkatan sebanyak 21% berbanding tempoh yang sama pada tahun 2011. Zon Titiwangsa merakamkan 36% (407) daripada jumlah kes WPKL dan Putrajaya. Tanda-tanda serangan penyakit Denggi Demam kuat secara mengejut dan berterusan Ruam pada kulit Sakit tulang, otot, sendi, biji mata dan kepala Hilang selera makan Muntah-muntah Apa itu Denggi? Sakit perut Penyakit denggi adalah suatu penyakit berjangkit merbahaya yang boleh membawa maut. Denggi biasa terjadi di kalangan orang dewasa dan kanak-kanak akibat dari gigitan nyamuk Aedes.

Study participants who slept for 80 minutes less than a control group consumed on average an extra 550 calories each day. “Research shows that when people are sleep deprived there are changes inside the brain and this could be driving them to eat even more,” says study coinvestigator Dr Andrew Calvin.
