Impetigo contagiosa staphylogenes is commonly treated by administering a combination of nadifloxacin and tetracycline ointments. However, it is not clear whether nadifloxacin and tetracycline are stable after mixing. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stability of these agents in combination. We also evaluated changes in antibacterial activity after mixing. Mixing the two ointments caused tetracycline to change from yellow to brown in the admixture. Furthermore, the tetracycline content in the ointment decreased in a time-dependent manner, to about 40% at 288 h after mixing. In addition, the nadifloxacin content in the ointment did not change 288 h after mixing. In an alkaline environment (pH 9.0 and 11.0), the tetracycline content decreased and the color of tetracycline changed to brown. These results suggest that sodium hydroxide, which is an additive in nadifloxacin ointment, influences the content of tetracycline. We evaluated the chemical sensitivity of Staphylococcus aureus using disk tests. Nadifloxacin and tetracycline ointment showed the largest radius of inhibition circle, followed by the admixture 0 h after mixing and the admixture 72 h after mixing. These results suggest that the antibacterial activity is inhibited by the admixture. We propose that pharmacists should avoid mixing nadifloxacin with tetracycline ointment in the treatment of impetigo contagiosa staphylogenes and should take care to avoid interactions caused by additives in the ointments.

Objective: Many studies on patient satisfaction are conducted in community pharmacies.  In contrast, the present study assess the community pharmacy function and to the best of our knowledge, appears to be the first to evaluate the professional functions of pharmacists.Methods: In September 2010, in 1 week, we conducted a survey that focused on pharmacists’ professional abilities.  I subjected the responses to factor analysis and covariance structure analysis.Results: We obtained 2,506 effective responses (appropriately completed and returned questionnaires) of the 4,633 questionnaires originally distributed.  Data of seven dimensions were obtained for factor analysis.  In all, the various information provision services rendered by a pharmacist were not significant.  According to the covariance structure analysis, “safety” (a pharmaceutical management item) and “responsiveness” (a complimentary element) were significant factors.  Differences in the degree of influence were confirmed for each parameter in the analysis, depending on the parameter.  In addition, the information provision services were significant during the acute period.Conclusion: Because the information provision services were not significant, the influence of “asymmetric information” warrant further analysis according to the specialty.  I believe that it is necessary to examine asymmetric information in greater detail in the future.  In addition, I think that an interventional study that is based on these results is also necessary.
