ABSTRACT
According to the General Health-System pharmacists have an obligation to take part in the infection control initiatives of Hospital. This duty results, in part, from pharmacist' comprehension of and control over the use of antibiotics within the healthcare system. Additionally, the National Health Mission thinks that participation on multidisciplinary work groups and committees within the health system is the best way for pharmacist to effectively participate in infection control programmes and support the appropriate use of antibiotics throughout the health system. These initiatives should reduce the likelihood of antimicrobials being misused, lowering the danger of infection for other patients and staff members while also improving the treatment outcomes for patients with infectious disorders.

ABSTRACT
The purpose of the current study was to use the solid dispersion approach to improve the solubility of the medication oxcarbazepine, which is only moderately water soluble. The antiepileptic medication oxcarbazepine is used to treat seizures. Due to its high permeability and low water solubility, it falls under BCS class II. To prevent issues of this nature, it was imperative to increase the solubility of oxcarbazepine in accordance with British Pharmacopoeia (BP) solubility criteria since pure oxcarbazepine falls under the category of being only very slightly soluble. Solid dispersion technique has been used to try and increase the solubility of pure oxcarbazepine. Oxcarbazepine is also extensively metabolized by the liver. Attempt has been made to formulate solid dispersions containing oxcarbazepine to improve its solubility and dissolution rate to avoid first pass metabolism; to avoid difficulty.

ABSTRACT
Manganese is a naturally occurring element and an essential nutrient. It is an essential trace metal that is involved in bone formation, brain development and in the metabolism of carbohydrates, cholesterol and amino acids. Excessive exposure of humans to manganese can result in a neurologic and psychological disorder called Manganism. This study assesses the effect of Manganese on the cerebellar cortex of adult wistar rats. Thirty-six (36) adult wistar rats were picked at random and divided into 4 groups with 9 animals each. Group A which was the control received distilled water, group B, group C and Group D received orally 0.3 mg/kg, 0.6 mg/kg and 0.8 mg/kg body weight of Manganese Chloride respectively for 29 days. Experimental Animals were sacrificed on the 30th day by cervical dislocation. The cerebellum were collected after sacrifice, weighted and fixed in 10% formol calcium and subsequently processed for histological observation using Hematoxylin and Eosin staining principle. Part of the cerebella cortex was homogenized for MDA, NO and SDH analysis. The result shows that the mean body weights decreased significantly in the manganese- treated groups when compared to the control. The mean brain weight of the Manganese Chloride treated groups B, C and D Insignificantly Increased compared with the control. Biochemical analysis of the MDA (Lipid Peroxide), NO (Nitric Oxide) and SDH (Succinate Dehydrogenase) Increased Significantly (P<0.05) in the Manganese treated group compare with the control. Histological analysis showed loss and degenerated neurons particularly the Purkinje cells in the cortical layers of the Manganese treated groups compare with normal Cerebella histoarchitecture in the control. This study concluded that Wistar rats treated with Manganese Chloride demonstrated neurodegenerative changes in the cerebella cortical layers, which may adversely affect some cerebella functions in the Wistar rats investigated.

ABSTRACT
The nutritious jujube fruit (Ziziphus jujube Mill.) is a member of the Rhamnaceous family and grows mainly in inland areas of Europe, southern and eastern Asia, Australia and especially northern China. Jujubes have a long history as fruit and medicinal. The main bioactive components are vitamin C, phenols, flavonoids, triterpenoids and polysaccharides. Chlorogenic acid (5-O-caffeoylquinic acid) is a phenolic compound of the hydroxycinnamic acid family found in the hydroethanolic fruit extract of Z.jujuba. This polyphenol has many health-enhancing properties, most of which are relevant for the treatment of metabolic syndrome, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antilipidemic, antidiabetic, and antihypertensive effects. Methods: Molecular docking of COX2 with chlorogenic acid was carried out by AutoDock. Result: The molecular docking result revealed that chlorogenic acid showed encouraging docking score. The docking score found to be -5.15.

ABSTRACT
This study investigates the chemical composition of mistletoe leaves growing on fig tree. The mistletoe leaves and the fig leaves used for this research were harvested from Fig plant. Proximate analyses, phytochemical screening, Elemental and antioxidant analysis were done on both leaves. This study has provided a scientific justification that both the Fig leaves and Mistletoe leaves contained relevant phyto constituents such as alkaloids, saponins, flavonoid, and steroids; whereas antraquinones, tannins, phenols, resins and terpenoids were completely absent. Nutritionally relevant inorganic minerals like, Calcium, magnesium and potassium were the most abundant element in both plants. Proximate constituents like carbohydrates, lipids and proteins were present in varied amounts in both leaves. Result of inhibition of free radicals in fig leave extract increases with increase in concentration of the extract. The inhibition is closely comparable with that of the standard (Vitamin C) at the same concentration. The inhibition by the extracts of mistletoe grown on fig tree is low when compared with that of Fig and that of standard. This suggests that some of the chemical characteristics of mistletoe are conferred to them by their host trees.

ABSTRACT
In folklore medicine, Peperomia pellucida (L.) Kunth (Piperaceae), has demonstrated a good activity in malaria treatment and this has also been proven pharmacologically. Most antimalarial agents have demonstrated negative effects on spermatogenesis. For effective development and formulation of this plant resource into a dosage form that will be well tolerated by humans, the leaf extract of the plant was therefore evaluated for reproductive toxicity associated with antimalarial drugs in male Wistar rats at 250, 500 and 1000mgkg-1 doses for it effect on the sperm characteristics as well as the histology of the testes. Rats, divided into three groups (n=6) administered with 250, 500 and 1000mgkg-1 doses of the extract and a fourth one which was the control (administered with distilled water), were used for a period of twenty days following standard procedure. The result indicated, although the normal sperm morphology was not significantly affected, a significant reduction of sperm count and active motility by 93 and 71 (p<0.05) observed at 1000 mg/kg and interstitial necrosis of the testes at 500 which became severe at 1000 mg/kg. The extract was however safe at 250 mg/kg. The usual spermatotoxicty of antimalarials was therefore indicated at 500 and 1000mg/kg. The study has proven that P. pellucida leaf educed the usual antimalarial spermatotoxicity.

ABSTRACT
Pain is a term that refers to a spectrum of sensations of varying types and intensities, ranging from unpleasant to intolerable. The struggle to relieve pain began with the advent of mankind. Analgesics can be defined as drugs that reduce the sensation of pain without losing consciousness. Analgesics act in different ways on the peripheral and central nervous systems. They differ from anesthetics in that they reversibly eliminate sensation, acetaminophen [known in the US as acetaminophen, or simply APAP], non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs] such as salicylates, morphine and opioids such as opiates. When choosing an analgesic, the severity and response to other drugs determine drug choice. World Health Organization [WHO] pain ladder. Herbal medicines have less side effects and less harm, so they have a higher market value. The nutritious jujube fruit (Ziziphus jujube Mill.) is a member of the Rhamnaceous family and grows mainly in inland areas of Europe, southern and eastern Asia, Australia and especially northern China. Jujubes have a long history as fruit and medicinal. The main bioactive components are vitamin C, phenols, flavonoids, triterpenoids and polysaccharides. Recent phytochemical studies of jujube fruit have highlighted the following biological effects: B. Anticancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, immunostimulatory, antioxidant, hepatoprotective and gastrointestinal protective activity in macrophages and inhibition of foam cell formation. Further focus on clinical trials and phytochemical definitions of jujube fruit will be essential for future research efforts. In this study, an attempt was made to evaluate the analgesic potential of Ziziphus jujube hydroalcoholic fruit extract.
