Introduction: Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is among the most severe forms of dermatological reactions, which often occurs in response to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and leads to death in 20-50% of the cases. Case Presentation: A 41-year-old male patient was referred with a history of NSAID use, presenting with maculopapular rashes, at Kowsar Hospital in Sanandaj, Iran. The patient was hospitalized and received various therapies. He was discharged after 14 days in a good overall condition. Conclusion: Determining the basic etiology and disruption of pharmaceutical factors are essential to the treatment of TEN. The therapeutic interventions are similar to those used for burn patients.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) constitute a medication class often utilized to mitigate pain, reduce inflammation, and lower fevers. They are commonly employed to address symptoms such as headaches, dysmenorrhea, sprains, strains, colds, flu, coronavirus, and chronic conditions like arthritis, which entail prolonged discomfort. This study employs reverse degree-based entropy measures in quantitative structure properties relationship (QSPR) analysis to study NSAIDs medications' structure. A MATLAB program aids in computing these descriptors, facilitating the prediction of pharmacological activity. The linear regression model shows a strong relationship between the calculated indices and several physicochemical parameters of NSAIDs drugs. Comparative analysis with quadratic and cubic regression models is presented. It has been found that the reverse third Zagreb entropy, the Reverse Randić entropy and the reverse hyper Zagreb entropy are the best predictors for the considered physicochemical properties. This research enhances the understanding of Lyme medication structures and their pharmacological activity prediction.

Background and Purpose: Emergence and development of antifungal drug resistance in Candida species constitute a serious concern. Candida auris as an emerging multidrug-resistant fungus is the most important public health threat with high levels of mortality and morbidity. Almost all C. auris isolates are resistant to fluconazole, and there have been reports of elevated minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) to amphotericin B and echinocandins. To overcome the growing challenge of antifungal resistance, a valuable alternative option would be the use of drug combination. Materials and Methods: The present study evaluated the in vitro combination of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen, diclofenac and aspirin with fluconazole against fluconazole-resistant C. auris in comparison to other fluconazole-resistant Candida species, including C. albicans, C. glabrata, C. parapsilosis, C. tropicalis, and C. krusei originating from patients with candidiasis. Results: The MIC ranges of fluconazole-ibuprofen and fluconazole-diclofenac decreased from 32-256 to 32-128 and 16-256 µ g/ml, respectively and remained the same for fluconazole-aspirin against C. auris. However, the combination of fluconazole with ibuprofen resulted in a synergistic effect for 5 strains, including C. albicans (n=2), C. tropicalis (n=1), C. glabrata (n=1), and C. krusei (n=1), by decreasing the MIC of fluconazole by 2-3 log2 dilutions. Conclusion: Although the interaction of NSAIDs with fluconazole was not synergistic against fluconazole-resistant C. auris isolates, no antagonism was observed for any combinations. Therefore, combination with newer azole agents needs to be conducted.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Migraine is a chronic neurological disorder and it leads patients to avoid any kind of activity. Since different factors are involved in migraine incidence and its triggers, a wide variety of drugs are used to prevent or treat. Combination therapy has shown its efficiency in treating migraine. In this study, we have taken the combination of ibuprofen and alprazolam as a probable efficient compound in reducing these headaches.METHODS: In this clinical trial study, 90 migraine patients were allocated in 3 groups of 30, with an average of 2-6 attacks in month underwent. These three groups were unified by age, gender and their drug histories. After receiving volunteer’s adhesion for taking part in this experiment, the first group were given a single dose of ibuprofen 200 mg, the second group were given a single dose of ibuprofen 400 mg and the third group were given a single dose of ibuprofen 200 mg in companion with alprazolam 0.5 mg. Headache severity, functional disability and associated symptoms of the patients were recorded before and two hours after taking each regimen; and were graded from 0-3 points. Then three groups were compared.FINDINGS: In all 3 groups, the severity of the headaches were reduced significantly after the course of drug therapy with 36% of reduction in the first group, 46% in the second group, and 74% in the third group, respectively (p<0.0001). In the first group, nausea and vomiting were reduced from 92.3% to 22.3%, the second group from 96.7% to 13.3% and, finally the third group from 100% to 3.3% (p<0.0001). In addition, a significant reduction in photophobia and phonophobia was seen before and after taking the drugs (p<0.0001).CONCLUSION: The combination of ibuprofen 200 mg and alprazolam 0.5 mg had significantly reduced the severity of the migraine headaches.
