Viral hepatitis B and Viral hepatitis C are one of the leading causes of disease and death in the present-day world. These viruses greatly affect the liver by causing inflammation, cirrhosis, fibrosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and even causes the death of affected individuals. It requires highly cautious treatment to resolve complications associated with it, including abnormal levels of serological molecules of specific antigens, antibodies and liver enzymes. The treatment involves the use of antiviral agents that fight against viral antigens, reverses the progression of the disease and also prevents morbidity. Further reading takes towards the development of safe and effective antiviral agents and other regimens for lessening complications and ensuring patient compliance. Moreover, vaccines are also available that fight against the virus and act to prevent the emergence of viral hepatitis. Future developments are today in clinical trials to produce safer and efficacious agents to combat and prevent this disease.
Pneumonia is a respiratory disease that can be life-threatening when worsened or not treated properly. There are various standard guidelines, including WHO guidelines for the management of Pneumonia, for both children and adults as well as for the geriatric patients, based upon individualized therapy to each patient. These guidelines ensure the rational use of medications so as to target and achieve definite patient outcomes. Further reading will take towards such standard guidelines specifically for the management of paediatric Pneumonia and will assess the extent to which the stated guidelines are followed in different areas of Pakistan. Moreover, this review article will also emphasize the gaps that lead to irrational use of the medications in Pakistan and will highlight the strategies and plans that can be adopted at community and national levels to implement rational drug use for direct patient care and definite patient outcomes.
