Item In vitro Modulation of Cytochrome P450 Isozymes and Pharmacokinetics of Caffeine by Extracts of Hibiscus sabdariffa Linn Calyx.(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2019) Showande, J.S.; Igbinoba, I.S.; Marena, K.; Hokkanen, J.; Tolonen, A.; Adegbolagun, M.O.; Fakeye, O.T.Background: Hibiscus sabdariffa beverage (HSB) is widely consumed as a medicinal herb and sometimes used concomitantly with drugs. This study evaluated the in vitro inhibitory potential of the aqueous extract of H. sabdariffa calyces (AEHS) on selected cytochrome P450 (CYP) isozymes and the effect of HSB on the pharmacokinetics of caffeine in vivo. Methods: In vitro inhibitions of eight major CYP isozymes by AEHS were estimated by monitoring CYP-specific model reactions of 10 CYP probe substrates using N-in-one assay method. Subsequently, an open, randomized, two-period crossover design was used to evaluate the effect of HSB on the pharmacokinetics of single-dose 200 mg caffeine in six healthy human volunteers. Blood samples were obtained at specific times over a 24 h period. Probe drugs and metabolites were analyzed in their respective matrices with ultra-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometer/mass spectrometer and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography/ ultraviolet detection. Results: The H. sabdariffa aqueous extract weakly inhibited the selected CYP isozymes in vitro, with IC50 of >100 μgmL-1 in the order of CYP1A2 > CYP2C8 > CYP2B6 » CYP2D6 > CYP2C19 > CYP3A4 > CYP2A6 > CYP2C9. HSB decreased terminal t1/2 and Tmax of caffeine by 13.6% and 13.0%, respectively, and increased Cmax by 10.3%. Point estimates of primary pharmacokinetic endpoints, Cmax = 1.142 (90% confidence interval (CI) = 0.882, 1.480) and AUC0–∞ = 0.992 (90% CI = 0.745, 1.320), were outside the 90% CI of 0.8–1.25 bioequivalence limits. Conclusion: The aqueous extract of H. sabdariffa weakly inhibited eight CYP isozymes in vitro, but HSB modified the exposure to caffeine in human. Caution should be exercised in administering HSB with caffeine or similar substrates of CYP1A2 until more clinical data are available.Item Clinical and Humanistic Outcomes of Pharmaceutical care Interventions in Diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and meta-analysis.(West African Postgraduate College of Pharmacists (WAPCP), 2019) Showande, J. S.; Akande-Sholabi, W.; Fakeye, O.T.Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease for which life-long medications and care are needed. Effectiveness of care is related to good glycemic control, which is desired to forestall complications. Objective: This study evaluated the effectiveness of pharmaceutical care (PC) services provided by pharmacists in improving clinical and humanistic outcomes in diabetes mellitus patients. Method: Five databases (PubMed/Medline, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane Central Register of Control Trials and Google Scholar) were systematically searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reported in English using free text and medical subject headings keywords. Studies which had PC intervention arm, a control group, type1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus patients; clinical and/or humanistic outcomes were included. For meta-analysis, standard mean difference evaluated with random effect model at P<0.05 was reported. Significant heterogeneity was further evaluated with sensitivity and subgroup analyses. Results: A total of 41 RCTs with 7,448 patients were eligible out of 1222 citations. PC intervention significantly lowered glycosylated hemoglobin, fasting blood glucose, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (P < 0.05), with significant heterogeneity. PC intervention also improved self-care but medication adherence, disease knowledge and quality of life were not improved. PC services offered (patient education, identification and resolution of drug therapy problems, and pharmacotherapy evaluation) were not uniform across the studies. Conclusion: The review and meta-analysis showed that PC intervention is of great benefit to improve most clinical outcomes which may result in better disease management. A call is however made for standardized pharmaceutical care intervention.
