    摘要: A dermally applicable patch adapted for application to the skin of the user to enable a transdermal administration to the bloodstream of a user. The patch comprises an outer layer which is impermeable to the passage of nicotine and an inner layer which may operate as a rate controlling membrane to allow the passage of nicotine into the bloodstream of a user. An outer layer and an inner layer form a nicotine receiving area for receiving the nicotine to thereby allow the same to pass through the inner layer. In a preferred embodiment, the patch is highly effective in reducing the incidence of tobacco smoking by allowing transdermal nicotine migration into the bloodstream of a user at a rate sufficient to correspond to the nicotine level in the blood achieved by smoking.

    摘要: A method of aiding in the reduction of incidence of tobacco smoking. The method comprises applying a patch containing nicotine to the skin of a person with whom smoking reduction is desired and allowing the nicotine to transdermally migrate into the person's bloodstream to achieve a desired systemic nicotine level. The method also comprises the simultaneous administration of a nicotine containing aerosol spray to the oral cavity of the user in order to provide the desired sensations in the respiratory tract to which the user is accustomed from normal tobacco smoke. A combination of the spray and transdermal patch is also provided such that an occlusive patch is applied to the skin of the person with whom smoking reduction is desired and the nicotine containing aerosol spray is delivered to the oral cavity simultaneously with the application of the nicotine from the patch.

    摘要: A method of treating and reducing a drug dependency such as a nicotine dependency is provided. The method comprises initially administering to a subject a drug, such as nicotine or another agonist of the drug in an amount which would normally provide the desired pharmacologic effects and at least partially satiate the needs for the drug by a user. The method also comprises administering to the subject an antagonist to the drug or its other agonist in an amount sufficient to at least partially block the pharmacologic defects of the drug or its other agonist while there is a substantial amount of the drug or other agonist present in the system of the user. In one embodiment of the invention, the drug and the antagonist are administered substantially simultaneously so as to occupy a substantial portion of the receptors of the user for that drug thereby blocking or attenuating the effects of any further intake of the drug or other agonist. In another embodiment, the drug or its other agonist is first administered and the antagonist is self-administered by a subject in a manner which mimics the use of the drug thereby counter-conditioning the drug user to the stimuli associated with the normal administration of the drug. The invention further provides a method of therapeutically treating psychophysiologic diseases and disorders involving neuronal dysregulation. The method additionally provides a pharmacologic composition for the treatment and reduction of drug dependence and which relies upon a combination of an agonist and antagonist.

    摘要: A method for delivering dry powder particles through the mouth of a user, in which a suction is created through an opening in a proximal end of an elongated housing for drawing air into a flow path in the housing from an opening in a distal end of the housing, the distal end including an opening in the housing with a ridge surrounding the housing, and through a resistance member in the housing for introducing a controlled pressure drop in the housing and a resistance to the drawing of air into the mouth of the user. A measured amount of dry powder particles having a therapeutic capability, is introduced into the housing so that the particles will travel downstream from the resistance member at a relatively low velocity in a non-agglomerated state, the dry powder particles being sized and coordinated with the controlled pressure drop so that the particles can be drawn into the mouth of the user and inhaled, with the resistance being sufficiently great that the particles are drawn into the mouth of the user to simulate the action of puffing on a cigarette so that at least some of the particles are deposited in the oral cavity and upper respiratory tract of the user after being drawn into the mouth.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for regenerating tobacco smoke such that certain of the constituents may be smoked upon aerosolization thereof. The method and apparatus relies upon generating smoke from tobacco leaves or other grown plant substances and passing the smoke through a solvent, such as water. Certain of the fluidized components and certain of the gaseous components in the stream of tobacco smoke may then be captured in and preferably dissolved in the solvent. The dissolved or suspended smoke components may then be formed into an aerosol for inhalation by a user. By dissolving selected components in the solvent, many of the harmful gaseous and fluidizided constituents of a smoke stream are eliminated. Moreover, an aerosol is generated such that the particle sizes of the aerosol are sufficiently large that they are predominantly deposited in the upper respiratory tract. In this way, the smoker receives the sensations to which the smoker is normally accustomed from tobacco smoke without many of the harmful side effects of tobacco smoke.

    摘要: A method and an apparatus and composition used in the reduction of the incidence of tobacco smoking and which comprises an aerosol for application to the oral cavity and respiratory tract of an individual. The aerosol contains a food acid, such as citric acid, which is present in non-toxic amounts and capable of being inhaled. The aerosol may be in the form of a liquid spray or a finely divided solid. The droplets or particles contained in the aerosol are of proper size and have the food acid sufficient in content to simulate the sensations in the upper respiratory tract caused by tobacco smoke. In this way, the oral cavity sensations and the respiratory tract sensations simulate those created by tobacco smoke to replace the need for tobacco smoke. In another embodiment of the invention the food acid aerosol contains tobacco smoke of proper particle size so that the food acid particles migrate to the respiratory tract and the tobacco smoke remains in the oral cavity. In still a further embodiment of the invention, the aerosol contains small particles of a carrier such as a saccharide with tobacco smoke adsorbed thereon. In still another embodiment, the aerosol can be used in combination with a transdermal application of nicotine.
