Scopolia Overview
Scopolia is a plant genus that belongs to the Solanaceae family, which also includes tomato, potato, and tobacco. There are several species of Scopolia plants, including Scopolia carniolica, Scopolia japonica, and Scopolia tangutica. These plants are native to Asia and Europe and are known for their poisonous properties as they contain several dangerous alkaloids, such as L-hyoscyamine, atropine, and scopolamine, all of which are strong anticholinergics. These alkaloids have well known medicinally properties and are even available as prescription drugs to treat a variety of conditions, including motion sickness and spasms of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. However, scopolia is generally considered unsafe when used for self-medication and should only be used under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
Osimertinib Mesylate Overview
-
Osimertinib is used to help prevent a certain type of non small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) from returning after the tumor(s) has been removed by surgery in adults. It is also used as a first treatment for a certain type of NSCLC that has spread to other parts of the body in adults. Osimertinib is also used to treat certain types of NSCLC that has spread to other parts of the body in adults who could not be treated successfully with other similar chemotherapy medications. Osimertinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps stop or slow the spread of cancer cells and may help shrink tumors.
