TOBRADEX® Alcon Tobramycin-Dexamethasone Antibiotic-Corticosteroid Action and Clinical Uses: Dexamethasone, a potent corticosteroid, suppresses the inflammatory response to chemical, immunological or mechanical irritants. The bactericidal activity of tobramycin is accomplished by specific inhibition of normal protein synthesis in susceptible bacteria. Indications And Clinical Uses: For steroid-responsive inflammatory ocular conditions for which a corticosteroid is indicated and where bacterial infection or a risk of bacterial ocular infection exist. Ocular steroids are indicated…

TIMOPTIC®, TIMOPTIC-XE® Merck Frosst Timolol Maleate Elevated Intraocular Pressure Therapy Action and Clinical Timolol is a general beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent that does not have significant intrinsic sympathomimetic, direct myocardial depressant or local anesthetic (membrane-stabilizing) activity. Timolol combines reversibly with a part of the cell membrane, the beta-adrenergic receptor, and thus inhibits the usual biologic response that would occur with stimulation of that receptor. This specific competitive antagonism blocks stimulation…

TINACTIN® JOCK ITCH, TINACTIN® PLUS Schering Tolnaftate Topical Antifungal Indications And Clinical Uses: Topical treatment for tinea pedis, tinea cruris, tinea corporis, and tinea manuum due to infection with T. rubrum, T. mentagrophytes, T. tonsurans, M. audouini, E. floccosum, and for tinea versicolor due to M. furfur. Good results can be anticipated in patients with recent, mild fungus infection of the scalp (tinea capitis) treated with Tinactin solution. An oral…

TIMENTIN® SmithKline Beecham Ticarcillin Disodium-Potassium Clavulanate Antibiotic-b-Lactamase Inhibitor Action and Clinical Ticarcillin exerts a bactericidal action against sensitive organisms during the stage of active multiplication through the inhibition of the biosynthesis of bacterial cell wall mucopeptides. Clavulanic acid inhibits specific b-lactamases of some microorganisms and allows ticarcillin to inhibit ticarcillin resistant organisms which produce clavulanic acid sensitive b-lactamases.IndicationsIndications: Indications And Clinical Uses: For the treatment of the following infections when…

TIAMOL® Spectropharm Dermatology Fluocinonide Topical Corticosteroid Action and Clinical Uses: Fluocinonide is effective because of the anti-inflammatory, antipruritic and vasoconstrictor actions of fluocinonide.IndicationsIndications: Indications And Clinical Uses: For topical use in the management of acute or chronic dermatoses responsive to corticosteroids. Contra-Indications: Topical corticosteroids are contraindicated in tuberculosis, fungal, most viral lesions of the skin (including herpes simplex, vaccinia and varicella), untreated bacterial infections and also contraindicated in individuals with…

TIAZAC® Crystaal Diltiazem HCI Antihypertensive-Antianginal Action and Clinical Uses: Diltiazem is a calcium ion cellular influx inhibitor (calcium entry blocker or calcium ion antagonist).: Mechanism of Action: The therapeutic effect of this group of drugs is believed to be related to their specific cellular action of selectively inhibiting transmembrane influx of calcium ions into cardiac muscle and vascular smooth muscle. The contractile processes of these tissues are dependent upon the…

TICLID® Roche Ticlopidine HCl Inhibitor of Platelet Function Action and Clinical Uses: Ticlopidine is an inhibitor of platelet aggregation. It causes a time and dose-dependent inhibition of platelet aggregation and release of platelet factors, as well as a prolongation of bleeding time. The drug has no significant in vitro activity. The exact mechanism of action is not fully characterized, but does not involve inhibition of the prostacyclin/thromboxane pathways or platelet…

TILADE® Rh´ne-Poulenc Rorer Nedocromil Sodium Bronchial Anti-inflammatory Agent Action and Clinical Uses: Nedocromil sodium is a new chemical entity that inhibits the release of inflammatory mediators from a variety of cell types occurring in the lumen and in the mucosa of the bronchial tree. When it is administered topically to the bronchi, it displays specific anti-inflammatory properties. Laboratory experiments have shown that nedocromil sodium prevents the release of inflammatory chemotactic…

THYRO-BLOCK® Carter Horner Potassium Iodide Thyroid Blocking Agent Action and Clinical Uses: Potassium iodide, an ionic thyroid blocking agent, acts on the transport of iodide into and out of the thyroid. When given in sufficient amounts, entry of radioiodide into the gland can be virtually prevented. The onset of inhibition is rapid and is readily demonstrated 30 minutes after oral administration. An important factor in obtaining satisfactory acute block of…
