Upper Respiratory Drugs: Antitussives, Expectorants, and Mucolytics

1.8K
Respiratory symptoms, such as congestion and cough, commonly accompany respiratory tract conditions. Various medications, such as antitussives, expectorants, and mucolytics, play crucial roles in providing relief.
Antitussives include codeine, dextromethorphan (Robitussin), and benzonatate (Tessalon). Codeine and dextromethorphan exert their effects centrally by suppressing the cough reflex center in the medulla.  Benzonatate operates peripherally within the respiratory tract by...

Development of the Oral Microbiota

65
The establishment of the oral microbiome begins before birth, challenging the long-held belief that the fetal oral cavity is sterile. The presence of oral microbes such as Streptococcus and Fusobacterium in amniotic fluid suggests that microbial exposure may occur in utero, potentially through translocation from the maternal oral or gastrointestinal tract. This early colonization primes the neonatal immune system and sets the stage for subsequent microbial succession. Maternal health,...

  • Program staff discussed educational opportunities with eligible students and their families.
  • School attendance was compared between program participants and a control group during and after pregnancy.

    • Main Results:

    • Program participants showed higher rates of school attendance during the delivery quarter compared to the control group.
    • More program participants returned to day school post-pregnancy than the control group.
    • The control group exhibited unexpectedly high return rates to non-day school programs.

    Conclusions:

    • Eliminating formal and informal school system barriers is crucial for adolescent mothers' educational return.
    • The program's success is attributed to enabling motivated students by removing obstacles.
    • Policy changes can significantly improve educational continuity for adolescent mothers.
