Potential Role of Propolis in the Prevention and Treatment of Metabolic Diseases.

Propolis is a resinous mixture with a complex chemical composition, produced by honeybees and stingless bees from a variety of vegetal sources.

Safety Profile of Ombitasvir/Paritaprevir/Ritonavir and Dasabuvir in Hepatitis C in Romania: an Analysis Conducted in VigiBase®/ WHO.

Background And Aims: Due to the increasing number of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patients being treated with direct antiviral agents (DAAs) in Romania, we aimed to conduct a pharmacovigilance study in order to comprehensively evaluate the safety profile for the ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir and dasabuvir (Om/Pa/Ri+Da) regimen.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the individual case safety reports (ICSRs), extracted from VigiBase® on 1 st February 2018, which included the Om/Pa/Ri+Da regimen as suspected for causing adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) were checked for all concomitant medication using the IBM Micromedex® tool.
