摘要:
A medicament dispenser can include a first side surface (14), a second side surface (16) spaced from and substantially opposed to the first side surface, and a medicament packaging structure (30) located between the first side surface and second side surface. A pivot structure (18) can extend between the first side surface and the second side surface, and the medicament packaging structure can be rotatable about the pivot structure. Thus, the medicament packaging structure can be rotated from an enclosed state in which the medicament packaging structure is substantially enclosed by the first side surface and/or second side surface, to an exposed state in which the medicament packaging structure is substantially exposed from at least one of the first side surface and/or second side surface to provide user access to the medicament (s) stored in the medicament packaging structure. A lock structure (10) can be located adjacent the first side surface and second side surface in order to selectively prevent movement and/or rotation of the medicament packaging structure. A method of using and making the medicament dispenser are also disclosed.

The current application relates to an improved process for the synthesis of a 6a, 10a-cis-hexahydrodibenzo[b,d]pyran-9-one derivative, such as nabilone, by condensing a 5-substituted resorcinol with a 1-alkoxy-4-(1 -hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-1,4-cyclohexadiene in the presence of a Lewis acid selected from triflic anhydride, triflic acid, and sulfuric acid. The starting 1,4-cyclohexadiene derivative is prepared by an improved Birch reduction process in which a benzene derivative is reacted with gaseous ammonia, an alcohol, and an alkaline metal such as lithium, sodium, or potassium.
