Tuberculosis has a high prevalence in India but pulmonary embolism is rarely reported in Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. We describe a case series of pulmonary embolism associated with severe pulmonary tuberculosis. In our first case pulmonary embolism (PE) occurred within 6months of pulmonary tuberculosis diagnosis.Patient took ATT for 6 months and after being diagnosed as a case of PE, low-molecular-weight heparin was prescribed for 3 days and after that he was given Tab. warfarin (5mg) OD. Our second case diagnosed as a case of PE after taking 9months of ATT and he also prescribed Tab.Warfarin and low molecular weight heparin. The association between tuberculosis and pulmonary embolism is rare. Tuberculosis, the disease can itself lead to hypercoagulability, increased venous stasis, and endothelial dysfunction, thus increasing the susceptibility to venous thromboembolism (VTE) particularlyin those with severe pulmonary or disseminated tuberculosis. Among the ATT drugs, most commonly associated with thromboembolic events is Rifampicin, an enzyme inducer, and may alter the balance of anticoagulant and coagulant proteins produced by the liver. But it should be in detailed investigation should be done by respiratory physicians to rule out etiology whether it is due to drug or disease itself.

Sedative-Hypnotic Drugs
What is the most likely reason for R.S.’s poor performance in the morning rehabilitation sessions?
The sedative-hypnotic (flurazepam) appeared to be producing a hangover-like effect, which limited the patient’s cognitive skills during the early daily activities. Flurazepam is a benzodiazepine drug with a half-life of 2.3 hours and a duration of action of 7 to 8 hours. This drug, however, is metabolized in the liver to active metabolites with half-lives ranging from 30 to 200 hours. It seems likely that R.S. was continuing to experience sedative effects from these active metabolites well into the next morning.
What would be the likely solution?
The therapists can deal with this problem initially by reserving the early morning session for stretching and ROM activities and then gradually moving into upper-body strengthening. Activities that require more patient learning and comprehension can be done later in the morning or in the afternoon. The hangover-like problem should also be brought to the attention of the physician. In this case, the physician switched the hypnotic drug to zolpidem (Ambien), 10 mg administered at bedtime. Zolpidem has a half-life of 2.5 hours and a duration of action of 6 to 8 hours, so R.S. should still get the benefit of a full night’s sleep. Because zolpidem is not metabolized to active metabolites, it is unlikely that it will continue to exert sedative-hypnotic effects into the next morning. Zolpidem also affects neuronal GABA receptors differently than benzodiazepines such as flurazepam. This difference might reduce the risk of problems, such as rebound insomnia, when it is time to discontinue the drug.
Antidepressant Drugs
How can the therapist reduce the risk of orthostatic hypotension during rehabilitation sessions?
To reduce orthostatic hypotension, the therapist decided to place the patient on the tilt table for the first day after imipramine was started and to monitor blood pressure regularly. The therapist had the patient perform weight shifting and upper-extremity facilitation activities while he was on the tilt table. The patient tolerated this well, so the therapist had him resume ambulation activities using the parallel bars on the following day. With the patient standing inside the bars, the therapist carefully watched for any subjective signs of dizziness or syncope in the patient (i.e., facial pallor, inability to follow instructions). Standing bouts were also limited in duration. By the third day, ambulation training continued with the patient outside the parallel bars, but the therapist made a point of having the patient’s wheelchair close at hand in case the patient began to appear faint. These precautions of careful observation and short, controlled bouts of ambulation were continued throughout the remainder of the patient’s hospital stay, and the therapist observed no incident of orthostatic hypotension during physical therapy.
Will clinicians notice an immediate improvement in J.G.’s mood after starting this?

Introduction
If you are training to become a pharmacist, you will have had experience with pharmacy case studies. But why are pharmacy case studies so important?
As a qualifying pharmacist, case studies bring together the threads of study over the past four years. This includes your study of subjects such as:
- Pharmacology
- Pharmaceutical chemistry
- Pharmaceutics
- Clinical pharmacy practice
In practice, pharmacists are expected to draw on this knowledge and clinically apply it where necessary. These subjects feed into one another where knowledge of one subject became necessary to advance in a second subject and so forth. University staff overseeing the course structure put that structure together with these factors in mind. Pharmacy case studies are an important component, often toward the end of your pharmacy degree, that aim to establish the most relevant details that play a role in the career of a qualified pharmacist.
Case studies give pharmacy students an opportunity to test their understanding of a specialist topic. This may be anything from the formulation and dosing of medicines; to a drug’s mechanism of action, drug interactions, and clinical appropriateness for a medicine in a given scenario for a patient with specific factors to keep in mind. Evidently, this takes practice. There are many possible case study scenarios to consider. It can be difficult to always get things right.
Case studies are, then, a special kind of barometer through which we measure the professional competency of pharmacy students .
That is why pharmacy case studies are popular in degree programs – forcing students to think critically about a given topic – whether it be blood diagnostics, epidemiology, treatment options, or drug monitoring – tying together their past year’s study and how to apply this knowledge to (potentially) real-life situations.
Below, we’ve put together an introductory case study to provide you with a clear example of what kinds of questions can be asked and how best you should approach each question. With enough practice, clinical case studies become that much easier. And with time, students learn to enjoy case studies – as they are often your first direct experience of learning real and relevant facts that have an impact on your long-term professional career.
Pharmacy Case Study – Osteoporosis
A 49-year old woman with osteoporosis has been taking Fosamax for 6-months. She visits her GP complaining of acid reflux and pain radiating down her esophagus.
- What is the active ingredient of Fosamax?
- What is the mechanism of action of this medicine?
- Suggest a reason why this patient is taking Fosamax.
- How should the GP respond to the patient’s symptoms?
- What foods and/or medicines should the patient avoid?
Explanation
The questions ask more about the medicine – how it works, what it’s indicated for, how the GP should respond to patient symptoms and what interactions, from both food and drug sources, the prescriber and pharmacist must consider.
A – The active ingredient of Fosamax is alendronate; a bisphosphonate drug.
B – Alendronate works by inhibiting osteoclast-mediated bone resorption (the process whereby bone is broken down and minerals are released into the blood).
C – As a 49-year old woman, the patient is likely post-menopausal. Bisphosphonates are routinely prescribed to prevent osteoporosis in these patients.
D – The patient may be improperly administering the medicine. Patients who do not follow the correct protocol of administering bisphosphonates are likely to experience specific symptoms, particularly relating to the esophagus and GI tract. Patients should be counseled to take the medicine in the morning on an empty stomach, whilst remaining upright, and taken with a full glass of water. This eases the bisphosphonate through the digestive tract without irritating the esophageal wall. Patients should avoid taking and food or medicines, both before and for at least 30-minutes after taking the bisphosphonate.
E – Two groups of medicines should be avoided. First, NSAIDs should be avoided; as they increase the risk of gastrointestinal side effects. Second, patients should avoid foods or supplements that contain multivalent ions such as magnesium, aluminum, or calcium. This category includes dairy products and antacids. As we learned above, bisphosphonates should be avoided with these medicines/foods for at least 30-minutes after the bisphosphonate has been taken (on an empty stomach).
Practice More Pharmacy Case Studies
The more pharmacy case studies you practice , the better prepared you are for the needs and demands that present during the licensing end of your pharmacy program. Pharmacy case studies help guide students through the must-know clinical facts about drugs and medicines; both theoretical and practical knowledge.
Clinical case studies are one of the ways in which students make the transition between an experienced, knowledgeable student and a clinical professional whose expertise can be trusted in the real world. Case studies bring pharmacy students to the next level. The more practice you put in, the better results you can expect as you progress through the licensing stage of your nascent career. That, in the end, is what matters.
That’s about it for our discussion of case studies! Check back to our pharmacy blog soon for more exclusive content to help you master the science of drugs and medicines and build your long-term career.
