Trough estradiol levels and MADRS Tooltip Montgomery–Åsberg Depression Rating Scale scores with 1 mg sublingual micronized estradiol 3 to 8 times per day (3 to 8 mg/day total; mean 4.8 mg/day total) in women with postpartum depression. [8] Blood was drawn specifically in the mornings before the first dose of sublingual estradiol for the day. [8]
An equianalgesic chart is a conversion chart that lists equivalent doses of analgesics (drugs used to relieve pain). Equianalgesic charts are used for calculation of an equivalent dose (a dose which would offer an equal amount of analgesia) between different analgesics. [1]
Pyrethroid absorption can happen via skin, inhalation or ingestion. [11] Pyrethroids often do not bind efficiently to mammalian sodium channels. [12] They also absorb poorly via skin and human liver is often able to metabolize them relatively efficiently. Pyrethroids are thus much less toxic to humans than to insects. [13]
Pyriproxyfen is a pesticide which is found to be effective against a variety of insects. [3] It was introduced to the US in 1996, to protect cotton crops against whitefly.It has also been found useful for protecting other crops. [4]
