TORONTO (CP) — Many patients who pick up pre- scriptions from their drug stores are reluctant to ask busy pharmacists about their medications.

TALLAHASSEE, Fila. (AP) — Cancer and enviropmentalists may be headed for a clash over research involving the Pacific yew tree, a slow-growing species in limited supply.

Meanwhile, chemists at Florida State University are racing to devise a means of synthesizing the potential anti-cancer drug made from the back of the Pacific yew.

“We're working 80 hours a week... at nights and every Saturday, every Sunday,” said Robert Holton, an

any hopes to encourage con- sumers to seek information about their prescriptions from an in-store computer kiosk that provides a list of dos and don'ts for more than 5,000 drugs sold in Canada.

FS Beople don't ask ques- tions,” Senders said from his office in Markham, Ont. “They don't say, ‘What's this drug for? How do I take it? ‘What are the side effects? "

The kiosk features a com- puter screen that displays information such as what conditions a drug is used to treat, its side effects and in- teractions with other sub- stances.

MAKES PRINTOUT

A consumer can call up information using either the generic or the brand name of a drug. The computer then provides a printout in regular type or large print.

“It tells you how important it is to stay away from alcohol when you're taking a tran- quillizer, or the immediate reaction you'll get when you take that first antidepres- sant,” Senders said.

it may take several days or weeks before its full effect is achieved.

A lengthy list of possible side effects is given for the drug, known by: the generic name haloperidol, including blurred vision, dry mouth and constipation. But it warns that if certain symp toms appear — among them fever, loss of bladder control or seizures — the patient should stop taking the med- ication and seek emergency treatment.

UPDATES INFORMATION

Senders, who has tested the system in two Toronto drug stores, said the com- puter program costs about $650 a year to lease from Pharmasystems, which in- cludes at least three annual updates.

The company will provide a complete kiosk for about $8,000, but Senders said a drug store could install its own computer and printer for under $2,000,

Leroy Fevang, executive- director of the Canadian Pharmaceutical Association in Ottawa, said the concept offers the public a good op- portunity to obtain infor- mation.

THAN ROCK CONCERTS Hammering

TORONTO (CP) — Hammering nails is probably harder

on your ears than rock concerts or the roar of traffic, says a

professor who has built a mechanical head to test ear rotectors.

Hans Kunov, a professor of biomedical electronics, and his team at the University of Toronto's Institute of Bio- medical Engineering are studying ways to evaluate ear pro- tectors.

The mechanical head is filled with electrical and acoustical gear and wired for instrument readings that indicate the force of sounds on the inner ear, and is built to react to sound the way the human head does.

The team’s work bears out the latest thinking — that so-called impulsive sounds are damaging because they don’t sound as bad as continuous noise.

“Something that sounds loud may not do as much damage as a short ‘click’ that lasts only a couple of milli- seconds,” says Kunov.

That brief pulse can be intense and insidiously dangerous. 5

This.is tricky. to.evéluate,-partly beeause-researchers can't go‘around firing off guns next to a subject’s eardrums. Even if they could, the way humans perceive sound is deceptive, Kunov says. »

HITS THE EAR

For example, an increase of three decibels in loudness is hardly noticeable, but it represents a doubling of energy hitting the ear.

Ringing in the ears is the most straightforward way to detect an overload to the hair cells of the inner ears, but by then it’s too late.

Because human heads are covered with skin, it's even harder to evaluate plugs and muff-type protectors. Just about everywhere on the body, the skin slides around freely, and the head and its ear canals are no exception.

“The common mi: — that we had, in the beginning — was that skin is just something soft that sits on top of something hard,” he says.

But skin bunches up, even in the earhold, and the skin around the ears matters a lot.

Fitting over-the-ear devices “is exceedingly sensitive to how you place the muff on the skin,” Kunov says. “We have found in our tests that it is very difficult to repeat a particular setting.”

RESEMBLES SKIN

To get realistic results, university scientists created a

with a silicone-based rubber skin that elosely resembles the springiness and damping effect of real skin.

The work, funded by a $50,000 grant from the Defence and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine, included building a torso — because of the way a head is tilted, shoulders and clothing can all reflect how sound is reflected to the eardrums.

Kunov’s team is helping a U.S. company to evaluate its line of ear protectors and is sharing the model head with the institute which is using it to check flight helmets and other military gear.

Kunov said his team wants the model, which looks like a human head, to be more than just a pretty face.
