| MESOTHELIOMAMalignant mesothelioma is a malignant tumor arising in the pleura; composed of mesothelium, which is epithelium that covers the surfaces of membranes such as the pleura, peritoneum, and pericardium. Mesothelioma is generally caused by chronic exposure to airborne asbestos. Mesothelioma may not appear until decades after exposure to the asbestos dust or particles. Symptoms may include a persistent cough, heart palpitations, weight loss, shortness of breath, and/or abdominal swelling and tenderness. Unfortunately, in most cases, mesothelioma is not diagnosed until the latter stages of the disease. The condition is terminal if left untreated - the treatment of choice is the removal of the portion of the organ containing the cancer. Pharmaceutical intervention is a adjunctive treatment - and usually used to treat bacterial infections that arise secoundary from respiratory infections that are common in the mid to latter stages of the disease. If you were exposed to asbestos particles, especially over a long period of time (such as insulation work, construction, etc in the 1960s and 1970s), please schedule regular check-ups and physicals with your physician and make sure that they know of your exposure.

ASBESTOSISAsbestosis is the accumulation of asbestos particles in the lungs causing a fibrosis or scarring of the lung tissue. While asbestos is rarely used in consumer products in the United States, it is still used as an insulator and fire retardant in developing nations. For pharmacists - pharmaceutical intervention primarily consists of aggressive antibiotic regimens to prevent and treat recurring lung infections that often result secondarily from the disease.
