Meat with antibiotics to be reduced at federal cafetarias

June 3, 2015 By Doyle Buehler Leave a Comment

The resistance of dangerous strain of bacteria to antibiotics is a growing threat. It has been a great concern to providers and regulators in recent years, prompting various responses.

The infections, which include ear and sinus infections are often caused by virus and not bacteria, so antibiotics are useless against them.

This problems should be addresses as soon as possible otherwise we risk undermining our ability to care and to cure.

US Food and Drug Administration have released a guidance developed regarding the judicious use of antibiotics.

Amy Pope, the deputy Homeland Security advisor, noted the necessity of unified action and the creation of alternatives of antibiotics.

McDonald’s was asking its chicken suppliers to lower the use of antibiotics over the next two years, this past March.

Elanco will evaluate 25 new technology platforms to deliver 10 viable development candidates within next year.

Declarations of organizational transformations peppered the conference proceedings.

As the federal government purchases a lot of meat and poultry, the Presidents action will help drive more food companies to reduce use of antibiotics in food production.

Holdren noted that the government procurement will move in a direction of strict standard that is antibiotic free.

Animal only antibiotic optimize animal welfare without compromising human use antibiotics.

Sylvia Mathews Burwell, Secretary of Health and Human Services said, “And the discovery of penicillin and antibiotics put a stop to that stark reality”, the first antibiotic was discovered in 1928.

In 2013, FDA announced it would require prescription for antibiotics and the Tuesdays rule implements that plan with a formal set of guidelines for veterinarians.

IMS Health will continue to provide the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or CDC with information and analysis for understanding treatment patterns and outcomes, including insights into trends, pattern and variations of use for antimicrobial medicines in the interest of public health.

As per the estimates of American College of Physicians, doctors prescribe 133 million courses of antibiotics each year. Roughly there are 300 drug products that are used in food producing animals and are also considered important for humans. Without these drugs, surgery, chemotherapy, organ transplantation, dialysis would be impossible.

Through its ongoing work with CDC and now with the White House, PDI is focused on addressing the negative impact of deadly antibiotic resistance bacteria called superbugs with awareness across multiple facets of its business.

Dr. Stenehjem said, “Our multiphase study has expanded the antibiotic utilization surveillance system, compared antibiotic utilization rates across the Intermountain Healthcare system, and sought to define the most appropriate antibiotic stewardship strategy.”

Repeated use of certain prescribed antibiotics may up type2 diabetes risk

A new study has found that intake of specific types of antibiotics on regular basis may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes.

The researchers concluded the major finding after looking at a clinical database of a million people in the UK.

According to the researchers, the people who were prescribed two or more courses of certain types of antibiotics by their doctors for over a certain period of time tend to increase their chances of being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in comparison to those who had never been recommended such antibiotics or they had just one course.

For the study, the research group looked at around 200,000 diabetic patients and the history of number of antibiotic prescriptions given to them at least one year prior to their diagnosis with the condition.

The number of antibiotics was then compared with another number of antibiotics that were prescribed to 800,000 non-diabetic people. All the participants belonged to same average age group.

It was found that both groups shared the same ratio of men to women. About 50 percent of the participants were prescribed antibiotics at some point of time during the study period. The researchers1376571961_antibiotics_2506419b found that the chances of developing diabetes grew with the number of antibiotics’ courses prescribed to the people.

The findings have, however, not made clear that how the repeated antibiotics use is associated with increasing diabetes risk.

“An imbalance in gut bacteria has been previously linked to the mechanisms behind obesity, insulin resistance and diabetes in animal and human studies,” said Dr. Ben Boursi, lead study author and researcher at the University of Pennsylvania.

The researchers, however, clarified that the study findings do not necessarily suggest that the antibiotics trigger diabetes. But the results do imply that the evident infections triggered by the antibiotics may be an alarming sign of diabetes.

The findings of the study were published in the European Journal of Endocrinology.

Boy with Austin improves on antibiotics, father urges research.

March 25, 2015 By Dave Smith

antibioticsIn a recent article published in journal Microbial Ecology in Health and Disease, John Rodaski encourages the scientific community to explore any links between Austin and antibiotics.

Rodakis noticed that while his son is taking antibiotic for strep throat, his Austin symptoms improved.

Rodakis writes as “I was determined to understand what was happening in the hope of helping both my son and millions of other children with autism.”

When he was set to find out any connection between antibiotics and Austin he found that the connection was not an entirely novel concept.

There are cases where there was improvement is Austin symptoms with the intake of antibiotics but there were other cases where the condition has worsened and many other cases where extend use of antibiotics were blamed for the disorder.

It was in 1999 a study was conducted by the Chicago Rush Children’s Hospital where it was found that 8 of 10 children showed improvement after taking vancomycin antibiotic. This is the first and the last study on the link connection.

The study also revealed that there is a link between Austin and gut microbiome.

Dr. Richard Frye, the head of the Autism Research Program at Arkansas Children’s Hospital Research Institute and Rodakis began a campaign to encourage further exploration between the link between gut microbiome antibiotics and Austin.

Rodakins consider antibiotics as a research tool and not as a cure for Austin but he believes the link between gut microbiome and Austin is real and further exploration would shift the paradigm of Austin from the idea that the disorder is a genetic driven neurological problem.

“Current research is demonstrating that gut bacteria play previously undiscovered roles in health and disease throughout medicine, the evidence is very strong that they also play a role in autism. It’s my hope that by studying these antibiotic-responding children, we can learn more about the core biology of autism.” Rodakis writes.

He further continues, “I love him unconditionally, regardless of his autism or how he is doing on any given day, but because I have seen what is possible, I will endeavor to promote research that benefits all children with autism and to remove all impediments from him becoming the fullest embodiment of who he can be, and until it is definitively proven otherwise, I will strive to foster research consistent with the evidence of the microbiome’s involvement in autism.”
