    Abstract Introduction: Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) is a very common OTC drug that is found in more than 200 OTC products sold as pain, cough and cold remedies. Paracetamol is commonly used as an antipyretic to reduce fever and as an alternative to Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) that are contraindicated in certain patients to relieve mild-moderate pain.
    Objective: This review article focuses on SJS, TEN, SJS/TEN overlap, AGEP, and DRESS syndromes associated with the use of paracetamol or paracetamol-containing products.
    Methods: To find published articles relevant to paracetamol-associated SJS, TEN, AGEP, and DRESS, we searched the online databases Medline/Pubmed/PMC, Google Scholar, Science Direct, Ebsco, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and reference lists using keywords like Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, Acetaminophen, Paracetamol, Toxic epidermal necrolysis, Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis, Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms.
    Results: The paracetamol-associated SJS, TEN, SJS/TEN overlap, AGEP, and DRESS syndromes have been identified by a number of publications.
    Conclusion: When evaluating drug-induced hypersensitivity skin reactions, healthcare professionals, including prescribers, pharmacists, and others, should be aware of this rare risk. Patients who exhibit signs and symptoms of paracetamol-associated hypersensitivity should be referred to physicians by pharmacists for further treatment. At the first sign of a skin rash or other hypersensitivity reaction while taking paracetamol, patients should be told to stop taking it and see a doctor right away.

    Abstract Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2). Currently, the management of patients with COVID-19 depends mainly on repurposed drugs which include chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, lopinavir/ritonavir, ribavirin, remdesivir, favipiravir, umifenovir, interferon-α, interferon-β and others. In this review, the potential of Nigella sativa (black cumin seeds) to treat the patients with COVID-19 analyzed, as it has shown to possess antiviral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, immunomodulatory, bronchodilatory, antihistaminic, antitussive, antipyretic and analgesic activities. PubMed, Google Scholar, Science Direct, Directory of open access journals (DOAJ) and reference lists were searched to identify articles associated with antiviral and other properties of N.sativa related to the signs and symptoms of COVID-19. Various randomized controlled trials, pilot studies, case reports and in vitro and in vivo studies confirmed that N.sativa has antiviral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, bronchodilatory, antihistaminic, antitussive activities related to causative oraganism and signs and symptoms of COVID-19.

    Abstract Background: Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are widely used in the management of several bacterial infections including urinary tract infections (UTIs), upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs), lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs), skin and soft tissue, gastrointestinal tract infections (GITIs), and many other infections.
    Objective: This review article focuses on some serious side effects notified by United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) in different warning statements.
    Methods: The literature was searched, in databases such as Medline/PubMed/PMC, Google Scholar, Science Direct, Ebsco, Scopus, Web of science, Embase, and reference lists to identify publications relevant to the serious side effects associated with the use of FQs.
    Results: Several epidemiological studies and meta-analyses have documented the occurrence of serious side effects of FQs including tendinopathy, peripheral neuropathy, aortic aneurysm/dissection, hypoglycemia, QT prolongation, retinal detachment, and worsening of myasthenia gravis.
    Conclusion: The clinicians should be aware of serious side effects of FQs. The US FDA and European Medicines Agency recommend against the use of FQs as first-line therapies to treat infections such as acute sinusitis, acute bronchitis, and uncomplicated UTIs, as the risks outweigh the benefits. The risk of incidence of serious side effects of FQs is higher among patients with advanced age, renal insufficiency, and certain concomitant medications. To avoid occurrence of any serious side effects of FQs, the clinicians should prefer non-FQ antibacterial drugs to manage uncomplicated UTIs, respiratory tract infections, and other infections for which alternatives available.

    Abstract Introduction: Hypertension is a leading cause of cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease, resulting in premature death and disability. The Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) blockers, including Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARBs), are used as first-line antihypertensive therapy to treat hypertensive patients with comorbidities, including diabetes, ischemic heart disease, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease. The use of RAS blockers is associated with the risks, such as hyperkalemia, angioedema, etc. The drugs potentiating them interact pharmacodynamically, resulting in adverse consequences. This review article focuses on the clinically important drug interactions of RAAS blockers.
    Materials and methods: The electronic databases, such as Medline/PubMed Central/PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), Embase, and reference lists were searched to identify relevant articles.
    Results: The risk of hyperkalemia may be enhanced potentially in patients receiving a RAS blocker and potassium-sparing diuretics, potassium supplements, trimethoprim, adrenergic betablockers, antifungal agents, calcineurin inhibitors, pentamidine, heparins or an NSAID, concomitantly. The patients taking ACE inhibitors and mTOR inhibitors, DPP4 inhibitors, alteplase, or sacubitril/valsartan concurrently may be at increased risk of developing angioedema.
    Conclusion: Clinicians, pharmacists, and other healthcare practitioners should be accountable for medication safety. To avoid adverse implications, prescribers and pharmacists must be aware of the drugs that interact with RAAS blockers.

    Abstract Background: Some individuals may experience symptoms persisting for many months after the recovery from COVID-19 and patients with Long COVID are managed mainly with symptomatic treatment and supportive care.
    Objective: This review article focuses on the beneficial effects of black seeds (Nigella sativa) in the management of long COVID and persistent COVID symptoms.
    Methods: The literature was searched in databases such as LitCOVID, Web of Science, Google Scholar, bioRxiv, medRxiv, Science Direct, EBSCO, Scopus, Embase, and reference lists to identify studies, which evaluated various effects of black seeds (N. sativa) related to signs and symptoms of long COVID.
    Results: Black seeds (N. sativa) have shown potential anti-COVID, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, antihypertensive, anti-obesity, antidiabetic, antihyperlipidemic, and antiasthmatic properties in various clinical, animal, in vitro, in vivo, and in silico studies, which would help the patients recovered from COVID to mitigate Long COVID complications.
    Conclusion: Patients experiencing Long COVID may use black seeds (N. sativa) as adjunctive therapy in combination with symptomatic treatment and supportive care to prevent further deterioration and hospitalization. The safety and efficacy of N. sativa in patients with Long-COVID would further be established by future randomized controlled clinical trials.
