E-DRUG: Help wanted - Russian drug  
----------------------------------  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;  
Dear colleagues:  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;  
We have received a question about a Russian medicine called MUCALTHINI  
TABULETTAE 0.05. We were unable to find any information about this drug  
in Martindale, IDIS, MEDLINE, USP-DI, and Merck Index. Can somebody help  
us?

Thanks for your attention.

Note from the moderator:  
------------------------

As mentioned in an earlier posting, the United States Pharmacopeia (USP)  
is preparing a directory of drug information centers (DIC) around the  
world and a manual on How to set up and run a DIC. One of the advantages  
of a worldwide directory of DICs will be to help in getting quick  
responses of requests like the one above by submitting enquiry  
directly to a DIC located in a country. If you have any ideas please  
email to Mustafa Farouq at USP (mf@usp.org) who is working on this  
project. Meanwhile, some of you who are associated with DICs may have  
received/will receive a questionnaire from Mustafa. Please return the  
completed questionnaire as soon as possible. Thanks.
