| Treatment of chronic pain needs to address the physical pathology that initiated the chronic pain, as well as the important social and psychologic sequelae of chronic symptoms. The goal of pain management should include reconditioning, reducing pain and improving function, sleep and mood. Discuss the management with the family. Address all factors that may contribute to pain and associated symptoms, e.g. family stress, anxiety and sleep deprivation. Address family anxiety. Use therapies, e.g. massage, splints, physiotherapy etc, where appropriate.

Reviewing Utilization IV. REVIEWING UTILIZATION This is a good service you're doing and I'm sure we physicians appreciate this, at least I do. Sincerely, Dr. A. Introduction The average EPIC participant was 78 years old and used 36 prescriptions last year. These participants have complicated medication regimens that are prescribed to treat a variety of health conditions. The most prevalent conditions include heart disease, arthritis, gastric conditions, and diabetes. Medications Most Frequently Used Table VI in the Appendix lists the 300 most frequently purchased medications used by EPIC seniors this year. Table VII shows the most frequently purchased types of medications by therapeutic classification. Cardiac drugs continue to account for the highest percentage of usage by EPIC seniors, at 69 percent. Other drugs used to treat cardiac conditions include classes of drugs such as diuretics, hypertensive agents, lipid lowering agents, and vasodilating agents. The next two most frequently used categories are gastrointestinal drugs 30 percent ; , and antidepressants 18 percent ; . A new category added to the top ten frequently purchased medications this year is sulfonylureas, which are used to treat diabetes. With obesity and diabetes on the rise, these agents are used to treat a specific type of diabetes mellitus, called Type 2. The American Diabetes Association stresses the importance of aggressive therapy, given the high mortality for diabetics who experience a serious heart attack or have kidney failure. Table VIII identifies the twenty medications most frequently purchased by EPIC seniors. Although these drugs are often used to treat serious life threatening diseases, many EPIC participants use these medications for preventive treatment of heart disease or complications from diabetes. Examples from this table include the cholesterol lowering agents Lipitor and Zocor. Plavix, a blood thinner that is used to help prevent atherosclerotic events such as strokes, appears in the top twenty drugs again this year. Also, ten of the twenty most frequently purchased medications are used to treat hypertension. Last year, eight of the top twenty medications were used to treat hypertension. Table IX lists the top twenty drugs based on EPIC payment. Prilosec, Lipitor, Prevacid, and Plavix are the top four drugs identified. Prilosec and Prevacid are used to treat gastrointestinal disorders. The newest drugs added to this list are Nexium, Protonix, Aricept, and Procrit. Nexium and Progonix are used to treat gastrointestinal disorders similar to Prilosec and Prevacid. During this program year more than 55, 000 seniors used these four gastrointestinal drugs. The average cost of this therapy for each participant was approximately 0 per year; however, participants saved over 87 percent of the cost of these drugs by utilizing their EPIC benefit.

MR TG, a 54-year-old obese lecturer BMI 32 ; , presented with a painful swollen left knee two days after jogging. At age 28 his left knee was forced into a valgus and posterior position during a trail bike accident The X-rays at the time showed no fracture. An examination under anaesthetic by a base hospital orthopaedic surgeon showed incomplete tears of the ACL and medial ligament, which were treated with a long leg plaster for six weeks, followed by extensive physiotherapy. Although he eventually regained full movement, he had persisting laxity of the ligaments and an X-ray some years ago reported changes consistent with PelligriniStieda syndrome ossification of the medial collateral ligament ; . Mr TG described transient pain and swelling of the knee during long walks over uneven ground, but he gave no history of the knee locking. He has avoided activities that could strain the knee but can walk over smooth ground without difficulty. In an attempt to lose weight, he has recently taken up gentle jogging. On examination the knee is moderately swollen and tender medially. The anteof this age, weight and activity level would not be advised to play these sports anyway. With respect to development of osteoarthritis, this is highly likely to occur in this patient, given the history, and no intervention particularly surgical ones ; is likely to change this fact. It has been shown that in the vast majority of cases, arthroscopy does not help arthritic knees; the only indication for it is the scenario above, if Mr TG's knee had minimal or absent degenerative changes and there was a medial meniscal tear. rior drawer sign is positive and moderately painful. Mr TG is not keen on surgery but would like to know if any physical therapies would help his knee and allow him to continue jogging. to change management. If the X-ray shows no degenerative changes and Pelligrini-Steida is a remnant of the old medial ligament injury and not a degenerative change ; there is potential for MRI to reveal a medial mensical tear that might warrant arthroscopy. Would arthroscopy or ligament reconstruction now help prevent the development of osteoarthritis and the need for knee replacement surgery in the future? The horse has already bolted with respect to ACL reconstruction. This is a great operation for allowing patients to continue multidirectional sports, but someone Apart from swimming, what physical activities are suitable for Mr TG to maintain fitness and to lose weight? Any physical activities that do not lead to knee pain and swelling are appropriate, with upper-body activities, cycling and walking being alternatives. Whether light running sports including, say, doubles tennis ; are still suitable will depend on the degree of degenerative change. Walking, for at least 30 minutes a day, will almost always be a suitable activity. When the patient cannot do this without pain, the time for knee replacement has probably come and by allowing the patient to resume walking, this operation also has an important role in preventing heart disease and cancer developing through inactivity and zantac.
Important product and safety information indications protonix is a prescription drug that is used to treat and maintain healing of erosive acid reflux disease, also known as erosive gerd breaks in the lining of the esophagus ; , and relieve associated symptoms that may include frequent and persistent heartburn and stomach acid backup.
Outside of Puric sources, direct references to Tulas of any antiquity are rare. As mentioned before she seems to be a goddess born of the Puras. Many sources of information, ranging from popular to academic, cite various Puric, and even Vedic, references to Tulas, but few are verifyable. Different versions of the story may vary in different recensions. For example, Asoke Chaterjee writes that the Uttara Khaa of the Padma Pura, wherein the Jladhara-Vnd episode takes place, is much shorter in the Bengali manuscript he was using as opposed to the Devangar version. 95 Most, but not all, references come from the Puras, and most of them are of two types regardless of source: narrative or of ritualistic concern. The narrative in the Puras has to do with the Jladhara Sakhaca episode involving Viu and iva, and later narratives, particularly from Gauya sources, treat Vnd as a forest goddess, a vandev, which will be discussed below. Ritualistic use of Tulas is also found in scattered verses of the Puras, as well as some Pcartra texts. Ritual use has to do with the benefits of circumambulating, watering, and worshipping the plant with flowers, and lamps, as well as wearing the wood in the form of beads. The oldest reference availible is one of ritualistic use of Tulas in the sur-Kalpa supplement to the Atharva Veda circa 900 BCE ; . The surKalpa deals mainly with practices of witchcraft, with many verses detailing the use of particular types of plants for rites. Rudra is invoked within the work, but the sur-Kalpa is mainly concerned with rites invoking the power and carafate.
Switching to generic alternatives To reduce costs, plans have traditionally employed incentives to encourage the use of generic equivalents for multisource brand-name drugs. Generic equivalents contain the same active ingredient, have the same form such as tablet, capsule, or liquid ; , and are taken the same way as their brand-name counterparts. Some plans are now taking a broader view of generic substitution, focusing on possible generic alternatives to achieve additional savings. Generic alternatives contain different active ingredients, but they usually provide a similar effect when given in place of a brand-name medication in the same therapeutic class. For example, a plan may create incentives for a patient to move from Prilosec, a proton pump inhibitor PPI ; , to its generic equivalent, omeprazole. It may also allow omeprazole to be substituted for other brand-name PPIs such as Nexium, Prevacid, or Potonix ; . In that case, omeprazole would be considered a generic alternative. There may also be situations where it is clinically appropriate to substitute drug products from a different but related therapeutic class--for example, substituting an angiotensin-converting enzyme ACE ; inhibitor for an angiotensin II receptor blocker ARB ; . These plans look beyond generic substitution rates and focus more on generic dispensing rates as the metric by which to judge the effectiveness of their programs.
Preventing Ulcers or Rebleeding Induced by NSAIDS. If NSAID-induced ulcers or bleeding are identified, the first steps are the following: Test for H. pylori and if infected take antibiotic treatments. Try switching to alternative pain relievers. The first choice at this time are coxibs, usually celecoxib Celebrex ; . It should be noted, however, that although they have a lower risk for ulcers and bleeding than standard NSAIDs, they are not entirely safe for the GI tract. People who still need to take NSAIDs may try the following: Use the lowest NSAID dose possible. Try adding a proton-pump inhibitors PPIs ; . Studies suggest they lower the risk for NSAID-induced ulcers but cannot completely prevent them. Brands include omeprazole Prilosec ; , esomeprazole Nexium ; , lansoprazole Prevacid ; , rabeprazole Aciphex ; , and pantoprozole Pprotonix ; . Try misoprostol or Arthrotec. If other agents are inappropriate, misoprostol protects against the major intestinal toxicity of NSAIDs. It was the first drug approved for preventing NSAID-induced ulcers. It is equally or even more effective than some of the PPIs, but it does not heal existing ulcers and has more side effects than PPIs. Patients tend to stop using it. Arthrotec is a combination of an ulcer protective agent called misoprostol and the NSAID diclofenac. One study found that patients taking Arthrotec had 65% to 80% fewer ulcers than those who took NSAIDs alone. One small study on animals suggested that taking L-arginine an amino acid found in health stores ; may help protect against damage from NSAIDs. As with all alternative agents, this product is not government regulated and more research is needed to confirm its benefits. A 2002 study compared the coxib Celebrex with an NSAID diclofenac ; plus Prilosec in patients who had NSAID-induced bleeding. Unfortunately, there were no significant differences in rebleeding rates, which were high about 5% within six months ; . Pain relief was about equal. More research is needed to determine whether other combinations may prove to be better options for these patients and metoclopramide.
Protonix is contraindicated in patients with hard to oblige hypersensitivity to any constituent of the formulation.

Continued taking Protonix. In that study, 93 percent of people with erosive esophagitis were healed completely after taking Pro5onix for eight weeks. Another study among healed erosive GERD patients demonstrated that a large majority of these patients maintained healing for a full year when they continued taking Protonix. Protonix also has been approved in the United States for the treatment of pathological hypersecretory conditions, including Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. These conditions are characterized by an oversecretion of stomach acid and can cause severe esophagitis. s and prevacid.
After the patient and healthcare professional decide that preventive therapy is appropriate, a few important principles of management should be reviewed.To achieve the maximum clinical efficacy with tolerability, it is important to start medication at low doses and gradually increase to therapeutic doses. This increase in dosage may continue until the desired response is attained. Patients need to be aware that preventive medication may take two to three months before a decrease in the frequency and severity of migraines is observed. Please see enclosed full Prescribing Information. One common factor among preventive medications is that they all have potential adverse events. It is essential to discuss with the patient the potential adverse events specific to a medication because some medications are better tolerated than others. The initiation of medication at low doses, increasing the dose slowly, and allowing time to adjust between doses, can limit adverse events. If a patient decides to stop preventive therapy, the dose should be gradually tapered to avoid the risk of rebound headache or other adverse events. By setting clear expectations on side effects, patients may be more likely to stay on therapy.

Better hospital-community linkages and foster# contact among the providers at this critical interface in the continuum of mental health services. The findings on participation by consumers and families suggest that both stakeholder groups may want consumer input but arc hesitant to accept consumers and their families as members ofsitc visit teams. Given the importance of the consumer movement in mental health, further studies arc needed to clarify the best procedures for obtaining consumer and prednisolone.
Acute coronary syndrome As with other nicotinic acid medicinal products, caution should be used when Tredaptive is used in patients with unstable angina or in the acute phase of an MI, particularly when such patients are also receiving vasoactive medicinal products such as nitrates, calcium channel blockers, or adrenergic blocking agents. Haematologic effects As with other nicotinic acid medicinal products, Tredaptive 2000 mg 40 mg ; was associated with small reductions in platelet count see section 4.8 ; .

DELAYED CARDIAC TAMPONADE FROM VENTRICULAR RUPTURE: A CASE REPORT G.Ghazaime, S.Thiruselvi and S. Bharanee and N. Abdullah School of Medical Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Kubang Kerian., Kelantan Ventricular rupture and the subsequent acute cardiac tamponade following chest trauma are usually instantaneously fatal and the reported mortality rate ranges from 76% to 89%. 1, 2, ; We would like to report a 71 years old patient who was referred to us following road traffic accident. Initial assessment showed a haemodynamically stable patient with Glasgow Coma Score of 14 15 with equal reactive pupils. Plain chest X-ray did not show any significant abnormality and his heart size was noted to be normal. He however, developed paradoxical movements of his right chest wall and frank haemothorax was found after chest tube insertion and tracheal intubation. CT scan showed frontal bone fracture, subarachnoid, subdural haemorrhage and fracture of the lamina of C5 spine. Intraabdominal free fluid was noted on ultrasonography. Emergency thoracolaparotomy findings were fracture of 6th , 7th and 8th ribs, and severe right chest wall and lung contusion. 2 hours into surgery and about 12 hours after trauma he became hypotensive with prominent distension of neck veins. Direct needle pericardiocentesis showed frank blood without improvement in blood pressure. After opening the pericardium, a 2-cm. right ventricular tear was found and the blood pressure became undetectable due to massive bleeding, even with aggressive fluid resuscitation, primary repair and internal cardiac massage. Patient was pronounced dead soon afterwards. Cardiac tamponade from a ventricular rupture is not always an immediate phenomenon and it can still occur after 12 hours of trauma. 1.

Believe it or not, chomping on gum is one of the main causes of stomach problems. "You often swallow lots of air, which can create gas and bloating, " explains Christine Frissora, a gastroenterologist at New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York City. In addition, some sugarless gums contain the sweetener sorbitol, small amounts of which can contribute to swelling in your belly. "Sorbitol pulls water into your large intestine which can cause bloating and even diarrhoea, in high doses, " Cox explains. A study in the journal Gastroenterology found that just 10 grams of sorbitol the equivalent of a few sugar-free candies ; was enough to produce symptoms, while 20 grams caused cramps and diarrhoea.

The Diamond Plan Pharmacy documents on the following pages have been updated for 2007. These documents can be found online at chcde . Select the Provider tab and click on Maryland Medicaid Drug Info located in the Pharmacy Benefits section. We have revised the Medicaid Member Drug Formulary Alphabetical Listing, the Self-Administered Injectable Formulary. In addition, we have made changes to the Once Daily Medications List, the Monthly Quantity Level Limits List, and the Prior Authorization and Stepped Therapy drugs. Notable changes include the removal of prior authorization for Protonix and Nicoderm CQ.
A quick summary of the admission: "78F c COPD exacerbation". He selects Enter Vital Signs and records the most recent set of vitals taken in the ED. He selects Record Physical Exam and records the details of her exam. He goes into the hospital computer again to find the results of the tests ordered in the ED. He records these results using Add Test Result. He also goes into the radiology PACS and looks at her chest X-ray, and notes his impression of it. Finally, he turns his attention the admission plan. He enters a brief assessment of the case, including the possibility that the exacerbation was triggered by a pneumonia or bronchitis. He finds Dr. Harvey's pager number above and clicks it to send him a message. He quickly discusses the plan with Dr. Harvey, which is the standard COPD treatment: oxygen, inhalers, steroids, and antibiotics. He selects Create Plan Issue, and names the first issue "COPD". He creates a list of plan items: IV solumedrol a steroid ; , inhalers, moxifloxacin an antibiotic ; , and supplemental oxygen. He selects Create Plan Issue for other, routine issues: "Hypertension" he notes that he plans to continue her outpatient medications ; , "F E N" fluid, and cardiac diet ; , "Prophylaxis" subcutaneous heparin and IV Protonix ; , and "Disposition" full code, anticipate discharge home in 23 days ; . fluids, electrolytes, and nutrition F E N ; , Prophylaxis, and Disposition are standard issues that apply to almost every patient, and might be created automatically by R HIT Sys. ; Finally, he chooses Create Inpatient Medication List, which lets him select which of the outpatient medications he's going to continue all of them, in this case, though it might be a subset in other cases ; . He also uses Add Medication to add the steroids, the additional inhalers, and the antibiotic. He also e-mails Dr. Stearns that one of his patients is in the hospital with a COPD flare, and that they're doing the standard therapy. Finally, it's time to do the paperwork. Fortunately, this is easy with R HIT Sys. He selects Create H & P, and he is given the option to choose which of the test results that were added he wants to include in the report. He allows all of them to be part of the report, and then chooses Print H & P to print the report. A printable version with Mrs. Scarlet's hospital identifiers and the hospital logo is created, and Ike sends it to the printer. He retrieves it, signs it, and puts it into her chart. Next, he selects Create Medication Reconciliation Form, which shows him a list of the medications she takes at home, and indicates which of them are being continued. He prints this as well, signs it, and puts that in her chart as well. Ike will probably have at least one other admission like this during the day, for which he will go through the same process. Before he leaves for the day, he checks in on Mrs. Scarlet, now in her hospital room. He updates her information in R HIT Sys to include her ward and room number. After signing out his list of patients to the covering intern more on signing out and cross-covering below ; , Ike heads to the gym, and then home. 3.2 Act II: Swing Today, our team is on their "swing" day, which means they won't get any admissions. They just need to take care of advancing the plans of their current patients. And Mrs. Crimson is supposed to be going home today, which is a big chance for Ike to decrease his patient census.
Doses were initially titrated to the individual patient needs, and adjusted in some patients based on the clinical response with time see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION ; . PROTONIX was well tolerated at these dose levels for prolonged periods greater than 2 years in some patients ; . INDICATIONS AND USAGE PROTONIX Delayed-Release Tablets and PROTONIX For Delayed-Release Oral Suspension are indicated for: Short-Term Treatment of Erosive Esophagitis Associated With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease GERD ; PROTONIX is indicated for the short-term treatment up to 8 weeks ; in the healing and symptomatic relief of erosive esophagitis. For those patients who have not healed after 8 weeks of treatment, an additional 8-week course of PROTONIX may be considered. Maintenance of Healing of Erosive Esophagitis PROTONIX is indicated for maintenance of healing of erosive esophagitis and reduction in relapse rates of daytime and nighttime heartburn symptoms in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease GERD ; . Controlled studies did not extend beyond 12 months. Pathological Hypersecretory Conditions Including Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome PROTONIX is indicated for the long-term treatment of pathological hypersecretory conditions, including Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. CONTRAINDICATIONS PROTONIX is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation. PRECAUTIONS General Symptomatic response to therapy with pantoprazole does not preclude the presence of gastric malignancy. Owing to the chronic nature of erosive esophagitis, there may be a potential for prolonged administration of pantoprazole. In long-term rodent studies, pantoprazole was carcinogenic and caused rare types of gastrointestinal tumors. The relevance of these findings to tumor development in humans is unknown. Generally, daily treatment with any acid-suppressing medications over a long period of time eg, longer than 3 years ; may lead to malabsorption of cyanocobalamin Vitamin B-12 ; caused by hypo- or achlorhydria. Rare reports of cyanocobalamin deficiency occurring with acidsuppressing therapy have been reported in the literature. This possibility should be considered if clinical symptoms consistent with cyanocobalamin deficiency are observed. Atrophic gastritis has been noted occasionally in gastric corpus biopsies from patients treated long-term with pantoprazole, particularly in patients who were H. pylori positive.
1, n 0-6 The peptides based on Aib units are well known for their propensity to form rigid 310helices because of steric hindrance at the -carbon and the resulting restricted torsional freedom.2 The intramolecular electron transfer from the electrogenerated phthalimido radical anion to the peroxide was studied in comparison with the thermodynamic and kinetic information obtained with models of the acceptor and the donor. The intramolecular rate constants were determined in N, N-dimethylformamide by taking into account the corresponding intermolecular values. The experimental results point to an unusual non-exponential dependence of the intramolecular electron transfer rate on the number of bridge units. The same trend could be verified also by taking into account the actual donor-acceptor edge-to-edge distance. The peculiar distance dependence that was observed for the intramolecular electron transfer rate is attributed to the mediating effect of the intramolecular C OH-N hydrogen bonds.
Prevacid is not the most potent ppi class of reflux drug and perhaps a change to one of the newer ones such as nexium, protonix or aciphex ; taken twice daily may eliminate your reflux problems.

PPI share changes. The availability of generic omeprazole has helped to moderate unit-cost growth in the PPI class, but the impact has been diluted by some shifts in utilization toward brand-name alternatives. At the beginning of 2002, Prilosec had approximately 30% market share within the PPI class of medications. However, shares of brandname Prilosec gradually declined to 22% by the end of 2002, while Nexium share grew rapidly to 21% and Protonix share grew to almost 15%. At the end of 2003, generic omeprazole had about 16% share in the PPI market. New pipeline drug. A novel, reversible proton pump inhibitor, AZD 0865, is currently in Phase II development in Europe.This drug may have a more rapid onset of action and longer duration of activity than currently available PPIs, due to this molecule's ability to bind to and inactivate multiple proton pumps. This new PPI may not become available in the United States until 2006 or 2007, if at all. Treatments for IBS. New drugs for the treatment of IBS are likely to be priced similarly to existing drugs for this indication, so the new drugs are not expected to have a significant impact on unit costs. Inflationary price increases are likely to be the primary determinant of unit-cost increases for this class of drugs. New indications. Within the next 3 years, tegaserod may be approved to treat chronic constipation, GERD, and functional dyspepsia. These new indications may contribute to increased unit costs in the gastroenterology category.
Effects without reducing the efficacy of methotrexate in treating rheumatoid arthritis or psoriasis. Patients being treated with methotrexate for cancer should avoid folic acid supplements, unless recommended by their oncologist. Folic acid could interfere with the anticancer effects of methotrexate. Reduced serum folate levels have been noted in people with multiple sclerosis MS ; after treatment with methylprednisolone sodium succinate Solu-Medrol ; . Clinical significance is unknown. Chronic cigarette smoking is associated with diminished folate status. Folate-dependent enzymes have been inhibited in laboratory experiments by certain NSAIDs ibuprofen Advil, Motrin, Nuprin ; , naproxen Anaprox, Aleve ; , indomethacin Indocin ; , and sulindac Clinoril ; . Clinical significance is unknown. Reduced folate levels can occur in some people taking pancreatic extracts such as Pancrease, Cotazym, Viokase, Creon, Ultrase ; possibly due to reduced absorption. Folate levels should be checked in patients taking pancreatic enzymes for prolonged periods. Pentamidine is a prescription drug used to treat PCP pneumonia. Decreased serum folate levels and megaloblastic bone marrow changes can occur rarely with prolonged intravenous pentamidine Pentacarinat, Pentam 300 ; therapy. Most patients are unlikely to need folic acid supplements. Phenobarbital Luminal ; and primidone Mysoline ; can reduce serum folate levels, occasionally leading to megaloblastic anemia usually in people with low dietary folate intake ; , and possibly contributing to neurological side effects, mental changes, and cerebral atrophy. Pregnant women taking phenobarbital or primidone may be especially at risk from reduced folate levels. Folic acid can have direct convulsant activity in some people, reversing the effects of phenobarbital or primadone and worsening seizure control. Folic acid may increase metabolism of phenobarbital. Seizure activity should be monitored closely. Folic acid can reduce serum levels of phenytoin Dilantin ; in some patients. Increases in seizure frequency have been reported. Phenytoin can also reduce serum folate levels, occasionally leading to megaloblastic anemia, and possibly contributing to neurological side effects and mental status changes. Folic acid supplements may reduce phenytoin side effects. Pregnant women taking phenytoin may be especially at risk from reduced folate levels. Proton pump inhibitors PPIs ; are prescription drugs used for reflux disease and ulcers. They include esomeprazole Nexium ; , lansoprazole Prevacid ; , omeprazole Prilosec ; , pantoprazole Protonix ; , and rabeprazole Aciphex ; . Folic acid absorption in the small intestine is optimal at pH 5.5 to 6. The increased pH associated with use of PPIs could theoretically reduce folic acid absorption. However, preliminary data suggests use of PPIs for several years does not cause folate deficiency. Maintenance of the recommended dietary intake of folic acid is recommended. Pyrimethamine Daraprim ; is a folate antagonist that prevents conversion of folic acid to its active form. Patients taking pyrimethamine should avoid folic acid supplements since they can antagonize the therapeutic effects against Toxoplasmosis and Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia. Patients taking lower doses of pyrimethamine for prolonged periods should maintain the recommended dietary folate intake and monitored for folate deficiency. Folic acid does not antagonize the effects of pyrimethamine in the treatment of malaria. Folinic acid may be used as an alternative to folic acid when indicated. Pyrimethamine also reduces serum folate levels!
