Abstract:
The invention relates to methods and compositions for the prevention, treatment, or management of gastrointestinal disorders or symptoms thereof, employing two or more agents or compounds to provide a triple site action on 5-HT3 receptors, 5-HT4 receptors, and at least one of H2 receptors and proton pumps.
Abstract:
Methods utilizing descarboethoxyloratadine ("DCL"), for the treatment of allergic disorders, while avoiding the concomitant liability of adverse side-effects associated with other non-sedating antihistamines. Also included are methods for the treatment of allergic asthma using DCL and either a decongestant or a leukotriene inhibitor, while avoiding the concomitant liability of adverse side-effects associated with other non-sedating antihistamines. The invention also encompasses the administration of DCL in a nasal or oral spray.
Abstract:
Methods and pharmaceutical compositions employing a terfenadine metabolite and a leukotriene inhibitor for the treatment or prevention of inflammation or allergic disorders, such as asthma, or symptoms thereof. Also included are methods and compositions employing a terfenadine metabolite, a leukotriene inhibitor, and a decongestant for the treatment or prevention of inflammation or allergic disorders, such as asthma, or symptoms thereof.
Abstract:
The R-isomer of the hydroxy metabolite of nefazodone, R-hydroxynefazodone, is an effective treatment for depression which does not give rise to the adverse effects associated with nefazodone. R-hydroxynefazodone is also useful in the treatment of migraine headaches, panic disorders, post traumatic stress disorder and sleep disorders.
Abstract:
Methods for the prevention, treatment, or management of apnea, apnea disorders, bulimia nervosa, irritable bowel syndrome, urinary incontinence, bradycardia, bradyarrhythnia, syncope, other disorders, or symptoms thereof using (+) norcisapride, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, substantially free of its (−) stereoisomer.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to compositions comprising, and methods of using, racemic N-desmethylzopiclone, optically pure (+)-N-desmethylzopiclone, and optically pure (−)-N-desmethylzopiclone in the treatment and prevention of diseases and conditions in mammals. The invention is further directed to novel methods of preparing N-desmethylzopiclone, optically pure (+)-N-desmethylzopiclone, and optically pure (−)-N-desmethylzopiclone.
Abstract:
Methods for the prophylaxis, treatment, or management of irritable bowel syndrome using (−) norcisapride, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, substantially free of its (+) stereoisomer are disclosed.
