ABSTRACT. Recurrent aphthous stomatitis, or RAS, is common oral disorder of uncertain etiopathogenesis for which only symptomatic therapy is available. This article reviews the current clinical features of RAS among study patients and the result of therapeutic effects of the herbal preparation Akhizunber. Over the past four years we have treated 61 RAS patients with different clinical forms by herbal preparation Akhizunber or Alumekatin. The distribution of clinical forms RAS RAS among study patients were minor aphthae -75.4%, major aphthae -16.4% and herpetiform ulcers -8.2% respectively. The healing time of treated Akhizunber was in minor aphthae -9.28±4.82 days, major aphthae -14 days and herpetiform ulcers -12 days. Of the total study participants, the patients treated by Akhizunber reported a rapid and complete recovery from RAS during treatment compared with treated patients by Alumekatin. Treatment with herbal preparation Akhizunber can be effective for patients suffering from RAS in any clinic form, regardless of their ulcer number and size.

Background: Among the total healthcare waste generated from health-related activities, 10–20% is considered haz ardous, posing significant threats to both the environment and human health. Approximately 3% of healthcare waste is pharmaceutical waste. In Ulaanbaatar city, an estimated 2.65 tons of healthcare waste is generated daily (0.78 tons of medical waste and 1.87 tons of general waste). With the continuous increase in pharmaceutical consumption, the improper disposal of pharmaceutical waste has emerged as a major environmental concern, adversely affecting nature, animals, and the food chain. Contamination from pharmaceutical waste, such as the development of antibiotic resistance, is closely linked to inadequate public awareness of waste management. Aim: This study aimed to assess the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of pharmacy technicians in community pharmacies regarding pharmaceutical waste management. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among pharmacy technicians across Mongolia. As of 2023, there are 4,959 licensed pharmacy professionals in the country. Using a representative sampling method, data were collected from 360 pharmacist and pharmacy technicians. Data were analyzed using MS Excel and SPSS version 26. Results: A total of 360 pharmacists from both urban and rural areas participated in the study. The assessment was based on a 5-point Likert scale, with scores of 1-2 considered negative and 3–5 considered positive. The average scores for knowledge, skills, and attitudes were 3.3, 3.06, and 3.25 respectively. While individual scores were satisfactory, the results of questions targeting social awareness were relatively low. Conclusion The knowledge, skills, and attitudes of pharmacy technicians regarding pharmaceutical waste management were found to be satisfactory. However, to further improve knowledge levels, it is recommended to implement additional training programs related to pharmaceutical waste management among pharmacy technicians.
