This econometric study covers the latent demand outlook for antitubercular pharmaceuticals excluding tuberculostatic isoniazid (isonicotinic acid hydrazide) preparations across the regions of Greater China, including provinces, autonomous regions (Guangxi, Nei Mongol, Ningxia, Xinjiang, Xizang - Tibet), municipalities (Beijing, Chongqing, Shanghai, and Tianjin), special administrative regions (Hong Kong and Macau), and Taiwan (all hereafter referred to as "regions"). Latent demand (in millions of U.S. dollars), or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) estimates are given across some 1,100 cities in Greater China. For each major city in question, the percent share the city is of the region and of Greater China is reported. Each major city is defined as an area of "economic population", as opposed to the demographic population within a legal geographic boundary. For many cities, the economic population is much larger that the population within the city limits; this is especially true for the cities of the Western regions. For the coastal regions, cities which are close to other major cities or which represent, by themselves, a high percent of the regional population, actual city-level population is closer to the economic population (e.g. in Beijing). Based on this "economic" definition of population, comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a city's marketing and distribution value vis-a-vis others. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved.

Drug overdose is a common problem because it can be either intentional or accidental. This publication teaches you the symptoms of various drug overdoses as well as the life saving antidotes that can be given for each overdose. Overdoses discussed in this book include:
1. Acetaminophen overdose
2. Antihistamine overdose
3. Atropine overdose
4. Benzodiazepine overdose
5. Calcium channel blocker overdose
6. Heparin overdose
7. Iron overdose
8. Isoniazid overdose
9. Opioid overdose
10. Warfarin overdose
BOOK EXCERPT
1. Acetaminophen Poisoning
Brand names of medications which contain acetaminophen or paracetamol include Tylenol, Panadol and Aceta to mention just a few.
Acetaminophen poisoning symptoms vary depending on the time that has elapsed since the overdose. Patients who present between 0-24 hours after ingesting an overdose of acetaminophen present with malaise, nausea and vomiting though some patients may not have any symptoms at all. Patient who present 18-72 hours after overdosing on acetaminophen may have protracted vomiting as well as complain of pain in the right upper side of their abdomen. Symptoms of poisoning in patients who present 72-98 hours after taking the acetaminophen overdose include yellow eyes in addition to the vomiting and abdominal pain.
The management of patients who have overdosed is Acetylcysteine which is the antidote of choice for acetaminophen poisoning. Activated charcoal may also be given after gastric lavage if the patient presents within 4 hours of taking the drug overdose.

2. Antihistamine overdose
Antihistamines (H1 receptor blockers) are a large group of medications which include chlorpheniramine, diphenhydramine, loratadine, hydroxyzine, clemastine and promethazine.
Antihistamine poisoning symptoms include agitation and confusion. Other symptoms of poisoning include hallucinations and convulsions.
The management of patients who have overdosed is Physostigmine which is given for antihistamine (H1) overdose. Management also involves the use of activated charcoal and respiratory support.

This report was created for global strategic planners who cannot be content with traditional methods of segmenting world markets. With the advent of a "borderless world", cities become a more important criteria in prioritizing markets, as opposed to regions, continents, or countries. This report covers the top 2000 cities in over 200 countries. It does so by reporting the estimated market size (in terms of latent demand) for each major city of the world. It then ranks these cities and reports them in terms of their size as a percent of the country where they are located, their geographic region (e.g. Africa, Asia, Europe, Middle East, North America, Latin America), and the total world market.
In performing various economic analyses for its clients, I have been occasionally asked to investigate the market potential for various products and services across cities. The purpose of the studies is to understand the density of demand within a country and the extent to which a city might be used as a point of distribution within its region. From an economic perspective, however, a city does not represent a population within rigid geographical boundaries. To an economist or strategic planner, a city represents an area of dominant influence over markets in adjacent areas. This influence varies from one industry to another, but also from one period of time to another.
In what follows, I summarize the economic potential for the world's major cities for "antitubercular pharmaceuticals excluding tuberculostatic isoniazid (isonicotinic acid hydrazide) preparations" for the year 2009. The goal of this report is to report my findings on the real economic potential, or what an economist calls the latent demand, represented by a city when defined as an area of dominant influence. The reader needs to realize that latent demand may or may not represent real sales.

This econometric study covers the latent demand outlook for antitubercular pharmaceuticals excluding tuberculostatic isoniazid (isonicotinic acid hydrazide) preparations across the prefectures and cities of Japan. Latent demand (in millions of U.S. dollars), or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) estimates are given across some 1,000 cities in Japan. For each city in question, the percent share the city is of it's prefecture and of Japan is reported. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a city vis-a-vis others. This statistical approach can prove very useful to distribution and/or sales force strategies. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each prefecture and city, latent demand estimates are created for antitubercular pharmaceuticals excluding tuberculostatic isoniazid (isonicotinic acid hydrazide) preparations. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved.
This study does not report actual sales data (which are simply unavailable, in a comparable or consistent manner in virtually all of the cities in Japan). This study gives, however, my estimates for the latent demand, or the P.I.E., for antitubercular pharmaceuticals excluding tuberculostatic isoniazid (isonicotinic acid hydrazide) preparations in Japan. It also shows how the P.I.E. is divided and concentrated across the cities and regional markets of Japan. For each prefecture, I also show my estimates of how the P.I.E. grows over time. In order to make these estimates, a multi-stage methodology was employed that is often taught in courses on strategic planning at graduate schools of business.
