Ghosts of Tablets

It might be surprising for you to find a pill in your stool. These are called Ghosts of Tablets or Ghost Tablets. They look like a whole tablet or a lump of tablet like a soft mass. The thing is, there is no need to get afraid of  it. It happens when the tablets don't undergo digestion as they travel in the GIT. Moreover, it really doesn't mean that the pill didn't work.
Most of these medicines are the ones which release the active ingredient over a course of time in a sustained manner. Most of these medicines are taken once or maximum twice daily.

Allergra-D
Adalat-CC
Glucophage XR
Ivega
Urocit-K
Pristiq
are some of these kind of pills that have the probability to leave their ghosts behind them : )

Death- By Neglect or by Design

There are basically two types of cell death. One is called as the death by neglect, while the other is called as the death by design. The former one is the death that happens less often. The underlying mechanism here is that the cell, if mistakenly, is dislodged from a particular location where its survival signals lie in its paracrine. As soon as it will not be receiving its survival signals, it will be impossible for the cell to maintain its integrity, and hence the result will be obvious, death by neglect. The other phenomenon, death by design, happens very commonly in the cell. It leads towards the programmed cell death, more technically called as the apoptosis. It can be commonly seen, during the embryological development, specifically when the finishing of the organs takes place.
