In this study, a pharmacy internship report describes a six-month community pharmacy internship, detailing activities to promote sleep quality, sun protection, hypertension screening, and detecting medication errors, as well as in-depth discussions on smoking cessation and alopecia treatments.

Pharmacists play a crucial role in patient care and optimizing treatment outcomes.

This review discusses potential causes of alopecia and hair overgrowth in pediatric patients, detailing diagnostic techniques and treatments, but presents no new research findings.

In this study, researchers optimized fast-dissolving tablets of nifedipine using a systematic approach, resulting in formulations that demonstrated rapid disintegration, enhanced dissolution profiles, and improved solubility, potentially improving oral delivery for patients requiring poorly soluble antihypertensive medication.

In this study, researchers reported that hardshell capsules using the DiluCap® line of excipients demonstrated varying dissolution profiles under gastrointestinal-simulating conditions, with minoxidil and finasteride showing rapid release and melatonin and naltrexone displaying controlled release, indicating their suitability for different applications in compounding pharmacies.

This study developed a simple and cost-effective chromatographic method for simultaneously analyzing betamethasone dipropionate and calcipotriol, achieving rapid separation within 7 minutes suitable for routine applications.

This study found that Finasteride Dispersible Tablets, prepared with an optimized prescription, disintegrate quickly, disperse well, and have a high dissolution speed, suitable for industrial production.

This study evaluated amphiphilic self-assembling peptides as drug delivery systems and found they effectively ensured prolonged release and therapeutic efficacy for timolol in glaucoma and for chemotherapy agents in cancer treatment, with significant tumor size reduction observed in animal models.

This article provides contact details and affiliations for Amy M. Karch and Fred E. Karch; it presents no new research findings.

This study demonstrated that combining amorphization and nanonization of drugs enhances both saturation solubility and dissolution rate, potentially offering therapeutic benefits for formulations like dermal applications.

In this study conducted at a tertiary care hospital's dermatology department, researchers reported frequent prescription errors and incomplete information, such as missing drug routes and usage, with significant instances of polypharmacy and potential drug interactions, emphasizing the need for improved rational drug usage practices.

In this study, researchers developed a coamorphous form of tadalafil and finasteride, showing improved solubility and dissolution in vitro, with results successfully translated in vivo in rats. They reported reasonable stability, suggesting this form could serve as a therapeutic alternative to the current marketed combination.

In this study, researchers created a coamorphous system combining tadalafil and finasteride that demonstrated improved solubility, dissolution, and stability compared to their physical mixture, offering potential therapeutic advantages for benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This review discusses best practices for minimizing complications with dermal fillers and provides guidance based on expert consensus, yet it reports no new clinical results.

Timely, tailored treatment is crucial for managing drug overdoses effectively.

This systematic review found that while green solvent- and natural excipient-based semisolid formulations often show promising efficacy and safety compared to conventional options, the evidence does not currently establish superior stability, highlighting a need for further research on long-term formulation quality.

This survey study reported the pricing, formulation, and delivery options for compounded topical alopecia medications in the tri-state area, finding varied costs and noting the capability of most pharmacies to exceed commercially available minoxidil concentrations and offer delivery services.

In this study, the researchers developed and optimized a bilayer tablet containing Tamsulosin and Finasteride, achieving sustained and immediate drug release with favorable release kinetics, including first-order and anomalous diffusion mechanisms, through in vitro testing.

This study reports a novel method for synthesizing substituted hydantoins, including the anticonvulsant drug ethotoin, using safer reagents and fewer steps compared to conventional protocols.

This study highlights that homemade topical herbal preparations, although popular for their perceived safety, may lead to allergic reactions, notably with Mediterranean herbs, and advises cautious use, particularly for allergy-prone individuals.

This study found that using spanlastics, a nano, surfactant-based drug delivery system, improved the bioavailability, drug release characteristics, and pharmacokinetic behavior of famotidine, a poorly soluble drug, by enhancing its dissolution and membrane permeation.

The study found that cyproterone acetate could be released over 15 days using coconut oil mixed with certain wax inhibitors, though further safety studies are needed.

This study developed effervescent cleansing tablets containing asiatic-acid-loaded solid lipid microparticles, finding that they provided effective cleansing compared to water and showed good flow properties, pH, and hardness but were unstable at high temperature and humidity.

This article describes the efficient synthesis of (S)-N-(2-bromo-6-methoxypyridin-4-yl)-2-hydroxy-2,4-dimethylpentanamide, a novel topical antiandrogen, with high purity and enantiomeric excess but reports no pharmacological results.

This study developed lipid-core nanocapsules for encapsulating menthol, improving its solubility and thermal stability, and demonstrated their safety and rapid skin absorption in ex vivo tests, highlighting potential applications for cosmeceuticals.

This study explored a computer simulation method for selecting emulsion compositions in dermatology, finding that the PS biocomplex can be effectively used as an emulsifier or co-emulsifier, which streamlines the development process and reduces experimental demands.
