Post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) affects 30% of all patients undergoing surgery and up to 80% of high-risk patients. Antiemetics for PONV prophylaxis target a variety of receptor systems, with varying degrees of efficacy and side effect profile. Neurokinin −1 receptor antagonists are the most recent class of compounds investigated for PONV prophylaxis, with aprepitant being the only one currently approved for this indication.

Around 80% of women suffer menopause-related symptoms that affect their daily activities and quality of life. Menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) has proven to be beneficial in relieving these symptoms. Nevertheless, only 20/30% of symptomatic women seek treatment. This has resulted in neglect of a generation of healthcare professionals’ (HCPs) education in menopausal medicine and a reduction in the prescription of MHT in menopausal women for over two decades.

Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk of CKD progression and cardiovascular events. Despite treatment with renin-angiotensin system inhibitors and SGLT-2 inhibitors, the residual risk is substantial. There is preclinical and clinical evidence supporting a key role of mineralocorticoid receptor in cardiorenal injury in T2DM.

Bladder cancer (BC) is the sixth most common type of cancer with epithelial/urothelial and non-urothelial origins. Urothelial carcinoma (UC) involves neoplastic cells of epithelial origin and accounts for 90% of all BC cases. Current review aims to discuss the latest advances and challenges in the treatment of UC with an emphasis on clinical pharmacology considerations.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease affecting approximately 60 million people worldwide. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have allowed identification of novel therapeutic targets in psoriasis including tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) where an exonic variant within the gene increases the risk of developing psoriasis.

Snakebite is a neglected public health issue causing death and disability, disproportionately affecting tropical and subtropical resource poor countries globally. Snakebite-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) occurs in a subset of snakebites and is associated with acute kidney injury (sometimes requiring renal replacement therapy) and a risk of chronic kidney disease.

Olanzapine is widely used for treating schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder. Due to its high pharmacokinetic variability, several population pharmacokinetic studies have been performed to identify factors contributing to the variability and thus facilitate individualized dosing. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of published population pharmacokinetic studies and explore potential covariates.
