摘要:
A method for reducing oxalate levels in a patient that includes administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of non-absorbable amine polymers such as a polymer characterized by a repeat unit having the formula: and salts and copolymers thereof, where n is a positive integer and x is zero or an integer between 1 and about 4.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for removing bile salts from a patient, comprising the step of administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a polymer network composition comprising a cationic polymer. In one embodiment, the polymer network is an interpenetrating polymer network. In another embodiment, the polymer network is a semi-interpenetrating polymer network.
摘要:
An amine polymer includes first and second substituents bound to amines of the polymer. The first substituent includes a hydrophobic moiety. The second substituent includes a quaternary amine-containing moiety. A method for binding bile salts of bile acids in a mammal includes orally administering to the mammal a therapeutically-effective amount of the amine polymer.
摘要:
A method for removing bile salts from a patient that includes administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of product produced by a process comprising alkylating one or more crosslinked amine polymers, salts or copolymers thereof with at least one alkylating agent. The reaction product is characterized in that: (i) at least some of the nitrogen atoms are unreacted with alkylating agent; and (ii) less than 10 mol% of the nitrogen atoms in the polymer react with the alkylating agent to form quaternary ammonium units.
