The optically pure R(-) isomer of albuterol, which is substantially free of the S(+) isomer, is a potent bronchodilator for relieving the symptoms associated with asthma in individuals. A method is disclosed utilizing the optically pure R(-) isomer of albuterol for treating asthma while minimizing the side effects associated with albuterol.
摘要:
The optically pure (-) isomer of cisapride is useful for the treatment of dyspepsia and such other conditions as may be related to the activity of (-) cisapride as a prokinetic agent, such as gastroparesis, constipation, post-operative ileus, and intestinal pseudo-obstruction, without the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of cisapride. The (-) isomer of cisapride also exhibits longer duration of action than does racemic cisapride and is useful for treatment of disorders of the central nervous system.
摘要:
A method and composition are disclosed utilizing the pure R(-) isomer of fluoxetine which is a potent antidepressant and appetite suppressant substantially free of adverse effects. In addition, a method and composition are disclosed utilizing the pure R(-) isomer of fluoxetine which is useful to treat migraine headaches, pain, in particular chronic pain, psychoactive substance abuse disorders and obsessive compulsive disorders.
摘要:
Methods are disclosed utilizing the optically pure (+) isomer of cisapride. This compound is a potent drug for the treatment of gastro-esophageal reflux disease while substantially reducing the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of cisapride. This compound is also useful in treating or preventing emesis while substantially reducing adverse effects associated with racemic cisapride. The optically pure (+) isomer of cisapride is also useful for the treatment of dyspepsia and such other conditions as may be related to the activity of (+) cisapride as a prokinetic agent, such as gastroparesis, constipation, post-operative ileus, and intestinal pseudo-obstruction, without the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of cisapride. The (+) isomer of cisapride also exhibits longer duration of action than does racemic cisapride and is useful for treatment of disorders of the central nervous system.

摘要:
A drill string reamer-stabilizer includes a main body adapted to be connected as an element of a rotary drill string. Individual bearing shafts are mounted axially along the exterior of the main body supporting roller cutters that engage the wall of the borehole. Seal units are positioned around each bearing shaft between each roller cutter and bearing shaft to define a lubricant space. The seal units retain lubricant in the lubricant space and prevent contaminating fluid and materials in the borehole from entering the lubricant space. At least one seal unit comprises an annular cup-shaped elastomer seal member with an annular lip mounted in an annular seal gland in the roller cutter. The seal gland has an inner side adjacent the lubricant space and an outer side exposed to the fluid and materials in the borehole. A ring of compressible filler material fits in the cavity of the cup-shaped elastomer seal member and allows the elastomer seal member to deform so that internal pressure in the lubricant space is vented outward past the annular lip of the seal member but allows external pressure of fluid and materials in the borehole to force the seal member against the inner side of the seal gland creating a fluid tight seal.
摘要:
Methods and compositions are disclosed utilizing the optically pure (−) isomer of amlodipine. This compound is a potent drug for the treatment of hypertension while avoiding the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of amlodipine. The (−) isomer of amlodipine is also useful for the treatment of angina and such other conditions as may be related to the activity of (−) amlodipine as a calcium channel antagonist such as cerebral ischemia, cerebral disorders, arrhythmias, cardiac hypertrophy, coronary vasospasm, myocardial infarction, renal impairment and acute renal failure, without the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of amlodipine.
摘要:
Methods and compositions are disclosed utilizing the optically pure (+) isomer of zopiclone. This compound is a potent drug for the treatment of sleep disorders, such as insomnia, and convulsive disorders, such as epilepsy. Similarly, these novel compositions and methods are useful for the treatment of sleep disorders and convulsive disorders while avoiding the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of zopiclone. The optically pure (+) isomer of zopiclone is also useful for treating disorders that are affected by the binding of agonists to central nervous system or peripheral benzodiazepine receptors. Also described are methods and compositions for treating disorders that are affected by binding of agonists to central nervous system or peripheral benzodiazepine receptors while avoiding the adverse effects associated with the administration of the racemic mixture of zopiclone.
