Le terrorisme rime avec tueries, pillages mais aussi prises d’otages. Au Burkina, ce dernier phénomène a touché de nombreuses personnes. Certaines y perdu la vie, d’autres s’en sont sorties avec des séquelles psychologiques indélébiles. Ceux qui ont séjourné dans la geôle des terroristes ont confié à oméga ce qu’ils ont vécu en voyant l’hydre terroriste en face. Qui attaquent le Burkina depuis 2015 ? Quelles sont les motivations, que deviennent les ex-otages après leur captivité ?

How medications (capsules) are made in a compounding pharmacy lab – a quick view of the whole packing process.
Video by @heartlandapothecary (TikTok)
Compounded medications are a great option for those who:
• Have allergies to common mass-produced fillers (lactose, gluten, dyes, etc.)
• Need customized medication strength (children or the elderly)
• Are avoiding certain ingredients
• Need unique dosage forms. (Creams, suppositories, lollipops, pellets etc.)
• Aren’t able to take a medication due to unwanted side effects, unpleasant taste or lack of improvement.
• Need medications that are in short supply or on back order.

“Hello I am a compounding pharmacist. For anybody who is interested I can go through the math that is required to calculate how much active ingredient plus filler can be put into each capsule.
First, you should know that there are many different size capsules: #00, #0, #1, and #3 are some of the more common sizes with lower numbers being larger capsules. Each different size capsule can obviously hold a different volume of total powder.
The compounding technician will perform a packing stat calculation with each ingredient to assess how much of each ingredient/filler can fit into the necessary capsule size. This packing stat is described in grams, so let’s say that when the technician fills 5 capsules she calculates you can fit and average of .150gm of acetaminophen (Tylenol) into a #3 capsule and .200 microcrystalline cellulose (filler) into a #3 capsule.
So let’s say a doctor for some reason orders a prescription for 100mg acetaminophen, and the patient brings it to the compounding pharmacy because they have celiac disease and can’t tolerate the fillers in commercially available acetaminophen preparations.
So…. Since we know from the packing stat calculation that we can fit .150gm acetaminophen in a #3 capsule we can calculate the total volume of the capsule which would be taken up by the 100mg acetaminophen (.1gm) by the equation .1gm/.150gm=.666. So in other words 66.6% of the capsule volume contains the active ingredient, so therefore we can deduce that there would be 33.4% (1-.666=.334) volume of the capsule remaining for inactive ingredients (fillers). So we can use the microcrystalline cellulose as the filler with its pack stat above (.200gm in #3 cap). To calculate how much filler we need, we would take the pk stat times volume remaining (.2gm x .334=.0667gm microcrystalline cellulose per cap).
So. Let’s say they want 100 capsules made. So we have our active ingredient (.1gm acet. per cap x 100 caps = 10gm Acetaminophen) and filler (0.0667gm microcrystalline x 100 caps = 6.67gm microcrystalline cellulose)
So the compounding tech would weight out the 10gm acetaminophen on the scale and the 6.67gm microcrystalline cellulose, then mix them together thoroughly and then pack them in the capsules per the video.” said u/SpiritualEnema on Reddit.
