IndicationsThe management of grand mal and psychomotor (temporal lobe) epilepsy. It is also of value in the management of focal or Jacksonian seizures myoclonic jerks and akinetic attacks.Dosage and AdministrationTreatment must always be individualised. In many patients it will be possible to use APO-PRIMIDONE alone but in some it will need to be combined with other anti-convulsants.APO-PRIMIDONE is usually given twice daily. Start with 125mg once daily late in the evening. Every three days increase the daily dose by 125mg until the patient is receiving 500mg daily. Thereafter every three days increase the daily dose by 250mg in adults or 125mg in children under 9 years of age until control is obtained or the maximum tolerated dosage is being given. This may be as much as 1 500mg per day in adults and 1 000mg per day in children.Average daily maintenance doses:Children up to 2 years: 250mg to 500mg per dayChildren 2 to 5 years: 500mg to 750mg per dayChildren 6 to 9 years: 750mg to 1 000mg per dayAdults and children over 9 years: 750mg to 1 500mg per day.The total daily dose is usually best divided and given in two equal amounts - one in the morning and the other in the evening. In certain patients it may be considered advisable to give a larger dose when seizures are more frequent e.g. if the attacks are nocturnal then all or most of the day's dose may be given at night; if the attacks are associated with some particular event such as menstruation a slight increase at the appropriate time is often beneficial.

From Gulf News: Runners should avoid prescription drugs. Statins may increase production of the enzyme creatine kinase, and hence heighten chances of muscle damage in athletes. Marathon running has increased in popularity over the past three decades, with participation in the United States rising from 25,000 runners in 1976 to nearly 470,000 in 2008. Many professional and recreational runners take prescription drugs, unaware of potential side-effects that affect runners in particular. One such class of drugs, called statins, which includes medicines such as Lipitor, Crestor and Pravachol, lowers blood cholesterol by inhibiting a cholesterol-producing enzyme and may even lower the risks of heart attack and further cardiovascular disease in a narrow category of patients. A new study forthcoming in the American Journal of Cardiology examined the effect of statins on creatine kinase (CK), an enzyme linked to muscle damage. Elevated levels of CK in the blood and muscle after exercise correlates with muscle damage. The study, conducted by Dr Beth Parker of the Henry Low Heart Centre at Connecticut's Hartford Hospital, is the first to measure CK levels in athletes taking statins after physical activity in a real-life environment rather than in a university laboratory.
