摘要:
Percutaneous absorption preparations which make it possible to absorb compounds having a melatonin receptor agonist activity via a convenient administration system, have favorable blood-drug-concentration-time profile and can exert a therapeutic effect on a disease caused by a decrease in secretion of melatonin at night.
摘要:
A parenteral pharmaceutical preparation comprises a matrix containing a physiologically active peptide or protein and a polyglycerol diester of a saturated fatty acid, and the matrix is in a solid form at room temperature. The molecular weight of the physiologically active peptide or protein is 2,000 dalton or more. The saturated fatty acid includes fatty acids having about 16 to 30 carbon atoms such as palmitic acid, stearic acid, etc. The matrix may be in a pillar or granular form. The parenteral pharmaceutical preparation can be used as an injectable solid administered subcutaneously or intramuscularly (for example, a pellet or tablet for implantation), a suppository or the like, and can release the physiologically active peptide or protein sustainedly for a prolonged period of one week or more.
摘要:
This invention relates to the liposome compositions which are characterized in that the phase transition temperature of the membrane is in the range of 40.degree. to 45.degree. C. and the osmotic pressure of a drug-containing solution to be entrapped in liposomes is 1.2 to 2.5 times higher than that of body fluid of warm-blooded animals. The compositions are useful for treatment of solid tumors in hyperthermia therapy.
摘要:
A drug held or supported by an interface comprising a porous matrix is dissolved with a drug dissolution liquid containing a humectant, and the drug is transdermally delivered by iontophoresis. The humectant includes e.g. glycerin and other polyhydric alcohols, sugar alcohols, proline and other amino acids and acidic mucopolysaccharides. The concentration of the humectant may be about 1 to 50% by weight, and the concentration of proline or other amino acid or its salt may be about 1 to 30% by weight. The drug includes (1) a physiologically active peptide or protein with a molecular weight of 100 to 30,000 or (2) a nonpeptide physiologically active compound with a molecular weight of 100 to 1,000.
摘要:
A liposome composition is obtained by using as constituent components of the liposome membrane a polyoxyethylene derivative represented by the general formula:X--O--(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.n --Y (I)wherein X represents an alkanoyl group or an alkyl group, Y represents a residue of a compound having a negative charge, and n is an integer of 2 to 50, and a phospholipid. The liposome composition has good dispersibility, high drug-encapsulation property and high stability.
摘要:
The present invention provides a percutaneous absorption preparation which comprises a compound having angiotensin II antagonistic activity and which allows the compound to permeate through the skin at a desirable rate for a prolonged period.
摘要:
An interface is formed by incorporating (1) a mixture comprising a water-soluble protein and a drug into a matrix, or preferably (2) a mixture comprising a water-soluble protein and a drug to a porous matrix coated with a cationic surfactant or other ionic surfactant. The coating amount of the ionic surfactant is about 0.1 to 50 .mu.g, and the content of the water-soluble protein is about 0.1 to 1,500 .mu.g, each per 1 cm.sup.2 of the matrix. The water-soluble protein includes an albumin and the drug includes a physiologically active peptide or protein, for example. The use of the stabilized interface inhibits decrease of the drug retaining amount, and insures an effective transdermal drug delivery with a high repeatability and accuracy.
摘要:
The liposome compositions entrapping a drug are prepared by constituting the liposomal membrane with a saturated phospholipid and a glycolipid having sulfo group. Thus obtained compositions circulate stably in blood for a long time after intravenous administration.
摘要:
The liposome compositions entrapping a drug are prepared by constituting the liposomal membrane with saturated phospholipids and anionic surfactants of high Krafft point at concentrations above their critical micelle concentrations. Thus obtained compositions circulate stably in blood for a long time after intravenous administration.
摘要:
A method for transdermal administration of parathyroid hormone by iontophoresis, which comprises applying electric current at least 2 times a day, which method is repeated one to four times each week, or an apparatus for the iontophoresis can be widely applied for not only the prevention or treatment of osteoporosis but also for general bone diseases which require promotion of bone morphogenesis, for example, treatment of ordinary fractures. The method of the present invention produces excellent pharmacological effects such as few side effects and a high bioavailability in long term administration for the prevention and treatment of bone diseases.
