Abstract: A drug distribution system and method utilizes a central pharmacy and database to track all prescriptions for a sensitive drug. Information is kept in the database regarding all physicians allowed to prescribe the sensitive drug, and all patients receiving the drug. Abuses are identified by monitoring data in the database for prescription patterns by physicians and prescriptions obtained by patients and/or caregivers. Further verification is made that the physician is eligible to prescribe the drug by consulting a separate database, and optionally whether any actions are taken against the physician. Multiple controls beyond those for normal drugs are imposed on the distribution depending on the sensitivity of the drug.

Abstract: A four-legged animal hip brace system (10) includes a forward harness (90), a right rear leg hip panel (20), a right leg strap (21) connected to a right panel distal end (24) and capable of encircling a right rear leg, a left rear leg hip panel (50) complementary to the right rear leg hip panel (20), a left leg strap (51) connected to a left panel distal end (54) and capable of encircling a left rear leg, a panel tether (80) between the forward harness (90) and one of a right panel proximal end (22) and a left panel proximal end (52), and at least one of a hip bridge (100) and a hip donut (120) wherein each of the hip bridge (100) and the hip donut (120) is removably attachable to one of a right panel inner surface (28) and a left panel inner surface (58).

Abstract: A computerized system distributes a plurality of different prescription drugs under exclusive control of an exclusive central pharmacy. The central pharmacy includes an exclusive computer database, which in addition to having information relating to all prescription requests, contains information about all doctors permitted to prescribe the different prescription drugs and all patients permitted to receive the different prescription drugs. The system checks the exclusive computer database for potential abuse of any specific prescription drug by a patient or a medical doctor prescribing the specific prescription drug, and sends the specific prescription drug to the patient only if no potential abuse is found by both the patient and the medical doctor.

Abstract: An animal back support apparatus includes a main back support, a chest harness and an optional lumbar support component. The main back support features relatively rigid stays placed over the spine and one on each side of the spine and foam inlays to conform to the pets back between the pets back and the rigid stays. The animal back support apparatus also includes a first side panel on one side of the main back support and a second side panel on an opposite side of the main back support where the first and second side panels extend towards the abdomen of the animal and interact with each other to encircle the torso of the animal. The chest harness attaches to the main support layer.
