ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of ivermectin and thiabendazole in confirmed cases of diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis. METHODS: Two patients with diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis were treated with anthelminthic drugs. The first patient was treated with ivermectin and the second, with thiabendazole. RESULTS: The worms were still mobile after treatment with ivermectin or thiabendazole. With the application of photocoagulation, the organisms were destroyed, and the patients' vision improved. CONCLUSION: In these two patients, ivermectin and thiabendazole were not effective in treating confirmed diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis.

ABSTRACT

A atividade analgesica do trifluperidol e da atropina foi estudada usando o dolorimetro de Hardy Wolff Goodell. As referidas drogas provocaram aumento do tempo de reacao de ratos a exposicao luminosa somente quando administradas localmente. Por via intraperitoneal, nao houve alteracao do tempo de reacao, descartando-se assim um efeito analgesico sistemico. A atividade anestesica local do trifluperidol e da atropina foi estudada utilizando o metodo de inducao de papulas em cobaias. O efeito do trifluperidol foi considerado bastante semelhante ao da bupivacaina, tendo a atropina sido menos potente.Um efeito sistemico foi descartado pois a reacao normal ao estimulo estava presente ao redor da papula. Os autores concluiram que, semelhantemente a outras butirofenonas, o trifluperitol tambem e capaz de induzir anestesia local. Esta atividade e comparavel a da bupivacaina, sendo a atropina menos potente
