摘要:
The invention relates to a dermal flowable-composition dispenser that includes a body for retaining a supply of the composition, an application portion having an application surface, and a conduit connecting the supply chamber with the application surface for facilitating the reproducible delivery of a predetermined dose of the composition to the application surface. The application surface includes a concave application surface and a front side having an upper rim enclosing the application surface and forming a depression that has a volume that is greater than or equal to the volume of the predetermine dose. Also, the application surface is configured and dimensioned such it can receive the patient's skin to allow for removal of the predetermined dose of the composition, and wherein the concave application surface is shaped such that the entire application surface contacts the patient's skin when the application surface is pressed thereagainst.

The present invention comprises non occlusive compositions for transdermal delivery of nicotine, and more particularly pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and methods of making same. The composition may, for example, be a gel suitable for transdermal or transmucosal applications. The compositions of the present invention typically comprise a mixture of water and alcohol, and a solvent system having a mono alkyl ether of diethylene glycol and a glycol present in specified ratios and in specific amounts, wherein the pH of the gel is usually between a pH of 5.5 and 7. The compositions may include further components, for example, the hydroalcoholic vehicle may further comprise additional penetration enhancer(s), buffering agent(s), antioxidant(s), stabilizer(s) and/or gelling agent(s). The invention also relates to a method for the sustained delivery of nicotine pharmaceutically acceptable salts to treat a variety of conditions and disorders.

This invention relates to novel transdermal or transmucosal pharmaceutical formulation having an active agent of testosterone which reduces the occurrences of contamination of other individuals and the transference to clothing of the user. The solvent system of the formulation includes a monoalkylether of diethylene glycol and a glycol present in specified ratios, and a mixture of water and alcohol. The invention also relates to a method for inhibiting or delaying crystallization of the active agent in a pharmaceutical formulation.
摘要:
A formulation for transdermal or transmucosal administration of an active agent. The formulation includes an active agent and a delivery vehicle comprising a C2 to C4 alkanol, a polyalcohol, and a permeation enhancer of monoalkyl ether of diethylene glycol present in an amount sufficient to provide permeation enhancement of the active agent through dermal or mucosal surfaces. The formulation is substantially free of long-chain fatty alcohols, long-chain fatty acids, and long-chain fatty esters in order to avoid undesirable odor and irritation effects caused by such compounds during use of the formulation. Also, the active agent is testosterone that is present in an amount of about 1%, the alkanol is ethanol that is present in an amount of about 46.28% to about 47.5% of the formulation; the polyalcohol is propylene glycol that is present in an amount of about 6% of the formulation; and the permeation enhancer is diethylene glycol monoethyl ether that is present in an amount of about 5% of the formulation.
摘要:
Non-occlusive compositions for transdermal delivery of 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, and more particularly finasteride or dutasteride or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or derivatives thereof, and methods of making same. The composition may, for example, be a gel suitable for transdermal or transmucosal applications. The compositions of the present invention typically include a mixture of water and alcohol, and a solvent system having a mono alkyl ether of diethylene glycol and a glycol present in specified ratios and in specific amounts, wherein the pH of the gel is usually between about pH 4.5 and about pH 8. The compositions may include further components, for example, the hydroalcoholic vehicle may further include additional penetration enhancer(s), buffering agent(s), antioxidant(s), stabilizer(s) and/or gelling agent(s). Also, a method for the sustained delivery of 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors to treat a variety of conditions and disorders.
摘要:
A pharmaceutical composition for transdermal or transmucosal delivery of an active agent to treat a movement disorder such as Parkinson's disease. The composition provides enhanced transdermal or transmucosal delivery of the active agent by including an alkanolamine as a permeation enhancer with a carrier of water and at least one short-chain alcohol and with the composition having a neutral pH. The composition provides controlled and sustained release of the active agent suitable for daily administration.
摘要:
A transdermal or topical composition including anticholinergic agents, such as oxybutynin, a urea-containing compound and a carrier system. A method is disclosed for treating a subject for urinary incontinence while reducing the incidences of peak concentrations of drug and undesirable side effects.
摘要:
A delivery vehicle for topical pharmaceutical formulations that include a C2 to C4 alkanol, a polyalcohol, and a monoalkyl ether of diethylene glycol present in relative amounts sufficient to provide permeation enhancement of an active agent through mammalian dermal or mucosal surfaces. Preferably, the delivery vehicle as well as the formulations that contain it are substantially free of long-chain fatty alcohols, long-chain fatty acids and long-chain fatty esters in order to avoid potential undesirable odor and irritation effects caused by such compounds during use of the formulation. Without these additives, use of the formulations is facilitated and patient compliance is greater
