Antibiotics and antibiotic-associated diarrhea: a real-world disproportionality study of the FDA adverse event reporting system from 2004 to 2022
CONCLUSIONS: There is a significant correlation between almost all antibiotics and AAD, particularly lincomycins and β-lactam antibiotics, as well as a different correlation within the same class. These findings offer valuable evidence for selecting antibiotics appropriately.PMID:38049920 | PMC:PMC10694877 | DOI:10.1186/s40360-023-00710-w (Source: BMC Pharmacology and Toxicology)

Augmentin loaded functionalized halloysite nanotubes: A sustainable emerging nanocarriers for biomedical applications
Environ Res. 2023 Dec 1:117811. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.117811. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTClay minerals such as Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs), abundantly available green nanomaterial, exhibit a significant advantage in biomedical applications such as drug delivery, antibacterial and antimicrobials, tissue engineering or regeneration, etc. Because of the mesoporous structure and high absorbability, HNTs exhibit great potential as a nanocarrier in drug delivery applications. The sulfuric acid treatment enhances the surface area of the HNTs and thereby improves their drug-loading capacity by enlarging their lumen space/i...
