摘要:
A multistage preparation for contraception based on a combination of natural estrogen and synthetic gestogen is described. The preferred preparation contains estradiol valerate as the natural estrogen and dienogest or drospirenone as the synthetic gestogen. In comparison to conventional multistage preparations the multistage preparation according to the invention has a higher contraceptive reliability over the entire cycle, improved cyclic bleeding behavior and minimizes or prevents side effects, such as breast tension, headaches, depressive moods and libido changes.
摘要:
The combination preparation for contraception includes a first stage of 2 to 4 first stage daily dosage portions, a second stage of two groups of second stage daily dosage portions, a third stage of 2 to 4 third stage daily dosage portions and an additional stage of 2 to 4 additional stage daily dosage portions. The first stage daily dosage portion is an effective amount of natural estrogen, the second stage daily dosage portion is an effective amount of a combination of natural estrogen and natural or synthetic gestogen, the third stage daily dosage portion is another effective amount of natural estrogen and an additional stage daily dosage portion consists of a placebo. The first group of the second stage consists of 3 to 5 daily dosage portions and the second group, 13 to 17 daily dosage portions. More of the gestogen is included in the effective amount in the second group of the second stage than in the first group. The effective amount of the natural estrogen is constant in both the first and third stages, but smaller in the third stage than in the first stage.
摘要:
The combination preparation for contraception includes from 2 to 4 first stage daily dosage portions each including an effective amount of at least one natural estrogen as sole active ingredient, from 16 to 22 second stage daily dosage portions each including an effective amount of a combination of at least one natural estrogen and at least one natural or synthetic gestogen as active ingredient; from 2 to 4 third stage daily dosage portions each including an effective amount of at least one natural estrogen as sole active ingredient; and from 2 to 4 final stage daily dosage portions containing a pharmaceutically acceptable placebo. The estrogen may be estradiol, an estradiol compound that is metabolized to estradiol when taken into the body, a conjugated equine estrogen or a phytoestrogen. The natural or synthetic gestogen can be natural progesterone or a synthetic gestogens, such as medroxyprogesterone acetate.

The use of melatonin for the production of peroral pulsatile forms of medications assures the safeguard of an effective level of the medical substance of melatonin in the blood, and which realize a relatively short invasion phase with a controlled delivery in comparison to conventional forms of medication containing melatonin, and which simultaneously exclude the known side effects. A control of the delivery of the melatonin is effected which is associated with the precise adaptation to the illness episodes or the pain attacks of certain illnesses, which can be treated prophylactically and therapeutically with the active agent melatonin.

The method of making a bioadhesive tablet for controlling testosterone blood level, especially in elderly men suffering from partial androgen deficiency, includes spray-drying an alcoholic solution or suspension of testosterone and at least one testosterone ester, preferably in a ratio of 1:10 to 1:1.5, separately or together, with an organic polymer and optionally one or more auxiliary ingredient to form an active ingredient premix. Then various other auxiliary ingredients are mixed, as needed, with the active ingredient premix to form the bioadhesive tablet with an active ingredient layer and an adhesive layer. The active ingredient layer contains an effective amount of the active ingredient premix. The adhesive layer includes auxiliary ingredients including the bioadhesive polymer. The bioadhesive tablet may be buccally administered to provide a predetermined timed release profile of testosterone, advantageously varying according to a circadian rhythm.
摘要:
The method of making a solid drug with controlled effective ingredient delivery for oral administration includes selecting a predetermined number of at least three of four compressed compositions containing an effective ingredient or effective ingredient combination defined by their release profile of effective ingredient and/or effective ingredient combination. The solid drug or medicinal preparation is formed according to known methods requiring only comparatively small apparatus expense and minimal time. Perorally administered solid drugs are made by this process which can provide widely varying pharmaceutically-required release profiles of effective ingredients or effective ingredient combinations, for example delayed release, uniformly maintained release or pulsatile release adjusted to fit a special rhythm.
摘要:
The invention relates to a transdermal therapeutic system for application to the skin and/or mucosa consisting of at least one active substance in the form of a solid dispersion in combination with at least one destructuring agent and/or at least one structuring agent in a common matrix.
摘要:
This invention relates to an in-situ implant that can be produced by placing a sterile, injectable, and water-insoluble complex from a biodegradable polymer and a biocompatible polyether with functional end-groups in the organism, and coagulating them under the influence of the body fluid. This coagulate may optionally contain at least one bioactive substance selected from the group of hormones, immunomodulators, immunosuppressants, antibiotics, cytostatics, diuretics, gastro-intestinal agents, analgesics, local anaesthetics and/or neuropharmacological agents.
摘要:
Described are methods for providing prolonged physiologically acceptable steady state serum testosterone levels in a patient deficient in endogenous testosterone levels, methods for male contraception and methods for treating a disease or symptom associated with deficient endogenous levels of testosterone in a man, by intramuscularly administering testosterone esters in a vehicle.

Gestagens, preferably dienogest, chlormadinone acetate or levonorgestrel, in combination with estrogens, for example ethinylestradiol, 17β-estradiol or estradiol valerate, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable auxiliary agents/excipients provide lactose-free oral contraception.The possibility is provided of improving the prophylaxis for lactose intolerance concerning a possibly contributing factor and also in regard to the costly examinations for lactose intolerance.The invention is also suitable for long-term use.
