EDITORS DESKGandhiji’s Educational Philosophy

Emphasis on Practice rather than Theory:Basic Education is based on the principle of activity center-ing round a productive and useful craft. It is activity-cen-tered education. Here the child is not a passive, recipient of knowledge but active participant in the learning process. It fosters learning by doing. Gandhiji had realistic and pragmat-ic view of education. Gandhiji laid stress on imparting knowl-edge and acquisition of productive effi ciency and practical skills through a craft. He followed the principle of practice preceding theory. Most of the time in the time-table would be given to acquisition of practical skills and produc-tive effi ciency.Social Awareness and Service:Another important aspect of the educational philosophy of Gandhiji is service and development of social awareness. “The end of all education should surely be ser-vice.” said Gandhiji. Social awareness and responsibility can be developed through the involvement of students in programmes of community service. Discipline, he be-lieved, should not be imposed from without. There should be an inner urge of the individual to obey the laws and regulations prescribed by the community or society. He believed in the inherent goodness of the child’s nature. Gandhiji was an idealist too. He had a profound faith in God or the universal spirit, which permeates ev-erything. God-realisation, in his view, should be the ultimate goal of life. God can be realised only through truth and non-violence. He emphasised harmonious devel-opment of personality — spiritual, intellectual, moral and physical.

VIEWPOINT

Need for the Provision of Clinical Pharmacists in Indian Hospitals

Ancy John. Pharm DClinical pharmacists work directly with physicians, other health professionals, and patients to ensure that the medications prescribed for patients con-tribute to the best possible health outcomes. Clinical Pharmacy practice is being accepted and practiced abroad in many developed countries like the United States of America, the United Kingdom etc. and it has proven itself to be a very essential part of the healthcare system. It is unfortunate that the scenario of clinical pharmacy practice in India is still in the infant phase. This article emphasizes the need for the clinical pharmacists in the Indian hospitals. It is known that there is an increased prevalence of drug related problems among the patients. Few studies show that drug related problems are one of the major causes for mortality and morbidity. Apart from this there are a wide variety of problems associated with the rationality of the medications. This makes way for the scope of clinical pharmacists in India. With such a scenario it is important for the emergence of the clinical pharmacy provision in India. There is a wide variety of roles that a clinical phar-macist plays in a healthcare provision. The main objective of the provision of clinical pharmacists is to provide pharmaceutical care to the patients. This may include therapeutic drug monitoring, promote rationality of drugs, increase the compliance of pa-tients towards the drugs, provide drug information services, patient counseling etc. There are numerous colleges in India that offer the course of Pharm D ( Doctor of Pharmacy ) with a vision of producing clinical pharmacists who are specialized in giving better pharmaceutical care to the patients which in turn helps in addressing the issues related to the medications. It is unfortunate that in India there are decreased opportunities for the clinical pharmacists and the fact that the govern-ment hospitals don’t provide such provision is more upsetting. Only those private hospitals pharmacists accredited with the National Accreditation Board for Hospitals and Healthcare Providers (NABH)

and Joint Commission International (JCI) employ clinical pharmacists. Due to lack of job opportuni-ties in government hospitals the Pharm.D graduates are forced to work in other unintended fields such as medical coding, medical writing etc. Hence, in a wider perspective the healthcare system is missing out on this essential provision. Moreover, among the handful of hospitals providing the provision of clin-ical pharmacists there is underutilization of clinical pharmacists in hospitals. The roles and responsibili-ties taken by them are merely even close to the roles and responsibilities taken by the western counter-parts. Many hospitals recruit the employs qualified in Bachelor of Pharmacy (B. Pharm) or Master of Pharmacy (M. Pharm) who are not well trained on the services to be provided as clinical pharmacists. This leads to professional incompetence among the Pharm D graduates who hold the qualification and training necessary to carry out the role of clinical pharmacist.The provision of clinical pharmacists will be a mile-stone for the healthcare system in India only when there is an increased awareness about the importance of the rationality in drug therapy. The responsibil-ity of a clinical pharmacist also extends to provide required interventions to other healthcare profes-sionals and eliminate the gap between patients and healthcare professionals. Therefore, there is an ex-tensive need for provision of Clinical pharmacist in Indian hospitals.

Drug Information

NORTRYPTYLLINE

Drug Class: Tricyclic Antidepressant

Route: Oral

Mechanism of Action

Nortriptyline hydrochloride is a tri-cyclic antidepressant that intervenes with the transfer, release, and stor-age of catecholamines. It blocks the effects of acetylcholine, 5-hydroxy-tryptamine and histamine. It also ex-hibits different pressor effects such as increasing that of norepinephrine and inhibiting that of phenethyl-amine.

Adult Dosing

• Nortriptyline should not be used concomitantly with MAOIs in-tended to treat psychiatric dis-orders or with linezolid or IV methylene blue. Do not initi-ate nortriptyline within 14 days of MAOI discontinuation. Do not initiate an MAOI within 14 days of discontinuing nortripty-line. Do not initiate nortriptyline in patients being treated with linezolid or IV methylene blue; nortriptyline may be resumed 24 hours after the last linezolid or IV methylene blue dose

• Beers Criteria: Use caution or avoid use as potentially inappro-priate in older adults

• General Dosage Information• Discontinuation: Avoid abrupt

discontinuation; taper dose grad-ually; if intolerable symptoms, re-sume previous dose followed by smaller decreases

• Depression• 25 mg orally 3 to 4 times daily; al-

ternatively, administer as a single daily dose; MAX 150 mg/day

• CYP2D6 phenotype (ultrarapid metabolizers): Avoid use because of potential lack of efficacy. If use is necessary, consider titrating to a higher target dose and employ therapeutic drug monitoring to guide dose adjustments

• CYP2D6 phenotype (extensive metabolizers): No adjustment to recommended initial or steady-state dose is required

• CYP2D6 phenotype (interme-diate metabolizers): Consider reducing recommended steady-state dose by 25%; begin with a low initial dose and titrate to clin-ical response using therapeutic drug monitoring to guide dose adjustments

• CYP2D6 phenotype (poor me-tabolizers): Avoid use and con-sider alternative therapy not me-tabolized by CYP2D6, because of potential for side effects. If treatment is necessary, consider reducing recommended steady-state dose by 50% and titrate to clinical response using therapeu-tic drug monitoring for dosage adjustment

ALUMNI MEMOIR

MY REFLECTION S.M.Metri (2010 Alumnus)

Before joining BLDEA’s SSM College of Pharma-cy and Research Centre Vijayapur my eyes were full of dreams like every other pharmacy aspirant. I enjoyed every moment here. I witnessed a lot of development n good things for which our teachers were working very hard. And after graduation when I came to the competitive world I realized the only difference is of amenities and resources. “Institu-

tion”…It actually denotes a “Culture”…Culture of excellence, empowerment, and enrichment. Being a part of BLDEA’s SSM College of Pharmacy and Re-search Centre Vijayapur, I felt blessed. The college has molded my personality and clarified my vision of the future. That day is not far when people will recognize me with the name of Metri and I am very grateful to the Institute for providing guidelines and motivation to inspire me to achieve my goals. As an alumnus I feel proud and thrilled about my college and am an opportunity to say few words of my experience as a student and teaching staff of this institute. In the year 2005 I was admitted this in-stitute as first year B Pharma student, My teachers used to share with me “College life is that part of your life that you are going to relive in your memories till you breathe” so I was realized fast memories and felt very truth. After completion of my Post Graduation in the year 2012 I always believed in the god and confident about I, like “Rejection is an opportunity for your selection.” My lifetime dream was I want to join this institute and serve for expansion of institute in karnataka and finally after two attempt dream be-came true and I joined as assistant professor in the department of pharmaceutical chemistry in the year 2014 “School for 12 years, college for 4 more years, then you work until you die. Cool.”I always feel privilege about teaching staff of our in-stitute and my GURU’s they all are like “They don’t just polish stones, they carve students”. Their main goal is to holistically nurture their students by pro-viding them with top quality education using cutting edge, effective teaching methods in an affable and comfortable environment. “Education is the most power-ful weapon which you can use to change the world.”

Our college is top one college providing quality ed-ucation in pharmacy in the north Karnataka region. We have very good and well infrastructure with all modern facilities in all departmental labs with re-search equipments. I feel always when I enter into the college premise it is the place and an important part of the holy trinity (Lakshmi, Parvati and Saras-wati), Maa Saraswati is the mother goddess of mu-sic, arts & craft, knowledge, wisdom, consciousness and all Vedas. It is said if that one tries to appease the Goddess with the purest of emotions and true heart,

9VOL : 04 ISSUE : 03 JULY - SEPT 2019

she will bestow them with the power to overcome any obstacles in their path; especially obstacles one faces in their educational life and career.“Saraswati Namasthubhyam, Varade KamarupiniVidhyarambam Karishyami, Siddhir Bavathume Sadha”I advise to my students who facing obstacles in their educational life and career tag along and pray daily in their homes below goddess maa saraswati mantra.

“And always to my students from my sidehug a stressed college student. It helps a lot. :)

“It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.”

Student Experiences and Placement Affairs commit-tee -To mark the great Teacher & Philosophyist, Dr Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan’s Birthday, Teachers Day was observed and celebrated at College of Nursing on September 05, 2019 at BLDEA’s SSM College of pharmacy & RC. Both the students & teaching & Non teaching faculty gathered joyfully for the cel-ebration. The function was inaugurated with lamp lighting by Principal Dr.N.V Kalyane. SOP Head DR.R.B Kotnal & Dr.Shivakumar Hugar Head of Pharmacology department and Head of APTI Asso-ciation Mr.RG Patil.Dr.H.Shivakumar in his speech said that SSM COP& RC is known for imparting value education to the students. He also added that the signifi cance of the function is to show respect to our Gurus who dispel darkness and ignorance around us. Teach-ers give light to students. They sacrifi ce their life for the upliftment of the students by imparting not only knowledge but also wisdom. Knowledge can be obtained through various media like books, novels, newspapers and internet. But students can acquire wisdom only through teachers. As wig in the lamp, the teachers sacrifi ce themselves to brighten the lives of the students.Dr. R.B Kotnal SOP Head emphasized the im-portance of parents and teachers in one’s life. As Compared with Parents, teachers spend lesser time with the children. He stressed that “If the teach-er is moulded properly then the society will also be moulded properly”. He advised the students to pay their respect to their teachers. It was his fi rm convic-tion that wisdom, happiness and peace, will prevail if teachers and students interact with each other with the spirit of oneness. He affi rmed that a teacher not only disseminates knowledge but also her entire per-sonality.Dr.N.v Kalyane Principal of BLDEA’s SSM COP & RC He explained that Every year Teachers’ Day is celebrated all over India on 5th September. It is because Dr. S. Radhakrishnan was born on this day. Dr. S. Radhakrishnan who later became a great gov-ernment dignitary was earlier an outstanding teach-er. He taught in India and later in England. He was greatly loved by his pupils for his scholarship and affable manners.

History of Pharmacy

Terra Sigillata–An Early “Trademarked” Drug

Man learned early of the prestigious advantage of trademarks as a means of identifi cation of source and of gaining customers’ confi dence. One of the fi rst therapeutic agents to bear such a mark was Terra Sigillata (Sealed Earth), a clay tablet originat-ing on the Mediterranean island of Lemnos before 500 B.C. One day each year clay was dug from a pit on a Lemnianhillside in the presence of govern-mental and religious dignitaries. Washed, refi ned, rolled to a mass of proper thickness, the clay was formed into pastilles and impressed with an offi cial seal by priestesses, then sun-dried. The tablets were then widely distributed commercially. [Ref: “Great Moments in Pharmacy” by George A Bender Paintings By Robert A. Thom. Copyright ©Parke, Davis & Company 1965,Library of Congress Catalog Number: 65-26825]

He explained that on this day we pay regards and gratitude to our teachers for guiding us as a torch bearer to grow further in our life and achieve our goals. He also acknowledged it as noble profession and that teachers are creators who create students as offi cers, engineers, doctors and above all good hu-man beings for the society.Later the program was continued by B Pharm 4th Year Students as a part of “Teachers Day” Felicita-tion was done for all the teachers by B Pharma stu-dents, Cake cutting ceremony was done after that Games were also arranged for the staff members. Both Teaching and Non-teaching Faculty and stu-dents of D pharm, B Pharm, Pharm -D were active-ly attended the programme.

STUDENT DIARY

Glycemic IndexSome foods can make your blood sugar shoot up very fast. That›s because carbohydrates like refined sugars and bread are easier for your body to change into glucose, the sugar your body uses for energy, than more slowly digested carbs like those in vegetables and whole grains. Eat a lot of those easy carbohydrates and you›ll have a hard time controlling your blood sugar, even with insulin and diabetes medicines.

The glycemic index gives you a way to tell slower-act-ing “good carbs” from the faster “bad carbs.” You can use it to fine-tune your carb-counting and help keep your blood sugar steadier.

What Is the Glycemic Index?

Glycemic index is a number. It gives you an idea about how fast your body converts the carbs in a food into glucose. Two foods with the same amount of carbohy-drates can have different glycemic index numbers.

The smaller the number, the less impact the food has on your blood sugar.

• 55 or less = Low (good)

• 56- 69 = Medium

• 70 or higher = High (bad)

Foods that are close to how they’re found in nature tend to have a lower glycemic index than refined and processed foods.

Glycemic Index Can ChangeThat number is a starting point on paper. It could be different on your plate, depending on several things.Preparation. Fat, fiber, and acid (such as lemon juice or vinegar) lower the glycemic index. The longer you cook starches like pasta, the higher their glycemic index will be.Ripeness. The glycemic index of fruits like bananas goes up as they ripen.Other foods eaten at the same time. Bring down the overall glycemic index of a meal by combining a high-glycemic index food with foods that have lower ones.Your age, how active you are, and how fast you digest food also affect how your body reacts to carbs. If you

have diabetes complication called gastroparesis, which delays your stomach from emptying, your body will absorb food much more slowly.

The Bigger Picture: Glycemic Load and a Good DietThe glycemic index shouldn’t be the only thing you consider when making choices about what to eat. The fact a food has a low glycemic index doesn’t mean it’s super-healthy, or that you should eat a lot of it. Calo-ries, vitamins, and minerals are still important.For example, potato chips have a lower glycemic index than oatmeal and about the same as green peas. But oatmeal and green peas have more nutrients.Size of the portion matter, too. The more of whatev-er kind of carbs you eat, the more they’ll affect your blood sugar. That›s what the glycemic load tells you. It›s a number you may see along with the glycemic index in lists. Think of it as the glycemic index for a specific amount of that food.Glycemic load helps you account for both the quanti-ty and the quality of your carbs at the same time. Less than 10 is low; more than 20 is high.

For a diet with a lower glycemic load, eat:

• More whole grains, nuts, legumes, fruits, vegeta-bles without starch, and other foods with a low glycemic index

• Fewer foods with a high glycemic index, like po-tatoes, white rice, and white bread

• Less of sugary foods, including candy, cookies, cakes, and sweet drinks

You can still eat foods with a high glycemic index. Just enjoy them in smaller portions, and offset them with nutritious, low-glycemic index foods when you do.

Glycemic Index and Diabetes

The glycemic index, or GI, measures how a carbo-hydrate-containing food raises blood glucose. Foods are ranked based on how they compare to a refer-ence food — either glucose or white bread. A food with a high GI raises blood glucose more than a food with a medium or low GI. Meal planning with the GI involves choosing foods that have a low or medium GI. If eating a food with a high GI, you can combine

13VOL : 04 ISSUE : 03 JULY - SEPT 2019

it with low GI foods to help balance the meal.

Examples of carbohydrate-containing foods with a low GI include;Dried beans and legumes (like kid-ney beans and lentils), all non-starchy vegetables, some starchy vegetables like sweet potatoes, most fruit, and many whole grain breads and cereals (like barley, whole wheat bread, rye bread, and all-bran cereal).Meats and fats don’t have a GI because they do not contain carbohydrate.

What affects the GI of a food?

Fat and fi ber tend to lower the GI of a food. As a general rule, the more cooked or processed a food, the higher the GI; however, this is not always true. Below are a few specifi c examples of other factors that can affect the GI of a food:

Ripeness and storage time: The riper a fruit or veg-etable is, the higher the GI.

Processing: Juice has a higher GI than whole fruit; mashed potato has a higher GI than a whole baked potato, stone ground whole wheat bread has a lower GI than whole wheat bread.

Cooking method: How long a food is cooked (al dente pasta has a lower GI than soft-cooked pasta).

Variety: Converted long-grain white rice has a low-er GI than brown rice but short-grain white rice has a higher GI than brown rice.

Other considerations: The GI value represents the type of carbohydrate in a food but says nothing about the amount of carbohydrate typically eaten. Portion sizes are still relevant for managing blood glucose and for losing or maintaining weight. The GI of a food is different when eaten alone than it is when combined with other foods. When eating a high GI food, you can combine it with other low GI foods to balance out the effect on blood glucose levels.

Many nutritious foods have a higher GI than foods with little nutritional value. For example, oatmeal has a higher GI than chocolate. Use of the GI needs to be balanced with basic nutrition principles of vari-ety for healthful foods and moderation of foods with few nutrients.

GI or carbohydrate counting?

There is no one diet or meal plan that works for ev-eryone with diabetes. The important thing is to fol-low a meal plan that is tailored to personal prefer-ences and lifestyle and helps achieve goals for blood glucose, cholesteroland triglycerides levels, blood pressure, and weight management. Research shows that both the amount and the type of carbohydrate in food affect blood glucose levels. Studies also show that the total amount of carbohydrate in food, in gen-eral, is a stronger predictor of blood glucose response than the GI. Based on the research, for most people with diabetes, the fi rst tool for managing blood glu-cose is some type of carbohydrate counting. Because the type of carbohydrate can affect blood glucose, using the GI may be helpful in “fi ne-tuning” blood glucose management. In other words, combined with carbo-hydrate counting, it may provide an additional ben-efi t for achieving blood glucose goals for individuals who can and want to put extra effort into monitoring their food choices.
