One-dose packaging improves the convenience of patients in drug therapy and is useful for securing medication adherence. As psychiatric patients take plural, sometimes many, drugs before bedtime, there are increasing demands for utilizing one-dose packaging in dispensing drugs for these patients. Suvorexant is a potent and selective antagonist against orexin 1 and 2 receptors and its use as an insomnia remedy is rising rapidly. On the package insert of suvorexant (Belsomra®) tablets, there is a description "Store in the press through package (PTP) until use to protect from light and moisture". So far, however, little information has been available about the correct storage conditions regarding the one-dose packaging of Belsomra® tablets. In this study, we investigated the stability of one-dose packaged Belsomra® tablets, which were preserved for 30 days at room temperature or at room temperature under 85% relative high humidity (high humidity), with a focus on the changes in appearance, hardness, mass, disintegration, content, and dissolution. Suvorexant content and the appearance of one-dose packaged Belsomra® tablets did not change even after 30 days. However, the tablets greatly lost hardness and showed an increase in mass, possibly due to the hygroscopicity of this formulation. These changes resulted in the prolonged disintegration time of one-dose packaged Belsomra® tablets and in the retarded dissolution of suvorexant from the tablets. These results suggest that Belsomra® tablets are hygroscopic and less stable. It is, therefore, desirable to avoid long-term, one-dose packaging of this formulation.

Objective: Consultation contents from medical consumers can become a useful information for medical workers.  However, report which investigated about them is limited.  In this study, we investigated the question contents from medical consumers with telephone.Methods: Nineteen hundred records on the consultation from medical consumers with telephone from 2007 to 2011 were subject to this study.  Using appropriate keywords and check the records, corresponding cases were extracted.Results: Resources of drug information which medical consumers used had various one such as the Internet, television, books, and newspapers.  However the medical consumers did not necessarily understand drug information correctly from the Internet and books.  This means that support by pharmacists was necessary in those cases.Conclusion: We think that information sharing in the medical consumers and medical workers based on a good relationship is important for proper use of drugs.

新型コロナウイルスの感染拡大防止策の一環として,面接受講と遠隔受講を組み合わせて実施した早期体験学習ワークショップの実践方法と教育効果の検証結果を報告する.例年実施していた施設訪問は中止とし,その代替として,ワークショップの実施時間を拡充した.デジタルを活用して学びあいの機会を提供するなどして,学生の集中力を持続させたり,遠隔受講の学生も含めてディスカッションができるようにした.デジタルを活用することにより,「ワークショップに参加してよかった」,「ワークショップが役立った」などの事後アンケートの結果を得たが,一方で,フィジカルによる学びあいの重要性も再認識できた.
