âThe only way … was to send her to jail!â

Posted: Published on May 8th, 2013

He flipped over our dining room table, he was so upset. Violent rages are not uncommon when a friend or family member is in need of another hit to fuel their addiction. The mother, who said she had been battling cancer and her husband was disabled, were living on a subsistence income and also suffered theft from their debit cards while they slept. They were forced to call on the aid of relatives to keep power on at their home. I tried to get his daddy to call the law, but he never would, she said. I finally did. That night. This mothers horror story has a happy ending so far. Her son spent over four months in jail where he was able to kick his drug habit and has been sober since release. Its just that sort of tough love that is required to help short-circuit a cycle of drug dependency, Sheriff Ramsey Bennett told the group. Dont confuse supporting your loved one for enabling them to just continue their drug habit and not have to face the real consequences of their actions, warned the sheriff. Several in the crowd agreed. They say you cant help a drug addict … Continue reading

Research and Markets: Pain Therapeutics – Drugs, Markets and Companies – Updated 2013 Report

Posted: Published on May 8th, 2013

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5lb27t/pain_therapeutics) has announced the addition of Jain PharmaBiotech's new report "Pain Therapeutics - Drugs, Markets and Companies" to their offering. This report describes the latest concepts of pathomechanisms of pain as a basis for management and development of new pharmacotherapies for pain. Major segments of the pain market are arthritis, neuropathic pain and cancer pain. Because pain is a subjective sensation, it is difficult to evaluate objectively in clinical trials. Various tools for pain measurement are described, including brain imaging. Most of the currently used analgesic drugs fall into the categories of opioids and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs such as COX-2 inhibitors. Non-opioid analgesics include ketamine, a N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist. Adjuvant analgesics include antidepressants and antiepileptic drugs used for the treatment of neuropathic pain. Management of pain is multidisciplinary and includes both pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods such as acupuncture, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and surgery. Various pain syndromes require different approaches in management, for example, the main category of drugs for migraine are triptans such as sumatriptan. Drug delivery is an important consideration in pain treatment. Controlled release preparations provide a steady delivery of analgesics. Well-known non-injection methods such astransdermal, pulmonary and intranasal application have been … Continue reading

7 May 2013 Last updated at 07:59 ET A former soldier who turned to drugs after his experiences in the Gulf War has been jailed for almost seven years. Daniel Boag, 46, from Dundee was among five people who have been jailed for their roles in a drugs operation which saw amphetamine and cocaine ferried between Glasgow and Dundee. The High Court in Edinburgh heard how a tip-off led to police surveillance then subsequent arrests. The men admitted being concerned in the supply of drugs. Boag was jailed for six years and eight months, while Andrew Cox from Broughty Ferry was jailed for five years and nine months. Grant Carnegie from Dundee and Philip Guthrie, who said he was homeless but has a house in South Queensferry, were both jailed for four-and-a-half years.

People’s Pharmacy: Why beets lower blood pressure

Posted: Published on May 8th, 2013

Doctors love scientific explanations for how things work. That is why they are quick to prescribe medications for a variety of conditions. Food and Drug Administration approval provides reassuring evidence of effectiveness. Dietary supplements, herbs and home remedies rarely have scientific support and usually lack an explanation for the way they work. That may be why it is hard for physicians to recommend such treatments. There is, however, a growing body of scientific research supporting the use of beet juice to lower high blood pressure. Investigators even have a mechanism to explain how beetroot (Beta vulgaris) works to help control hypertension (Hypertension online, April 15, 2013). Scientists knew that a natural compound called nitrite in the bloodstream helps blood vessels relax and lowers blood pressure. But how? And does this work in people with hypertension as well? To find out, they did research in rats that develop hypertension spontaneously. They identified an enzyme called xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) in the red blood cells called erythrocytes. This enzyme converts nitrate to nitrite, which is then turned into nitric oxide. This is the compound that relaxes vessel walls and reduces blood pressure. Figuring out how to control blood pressure in rats is interesting, … Continue reading
