摘要:
Viscous formulations and methods of using such compositions, useful for intramuscular and intra-articular injection are provided to treat peripheral conditions. Such compositions can include triamcinolone particles present in a therapeutically effective amount, a viscosity inducing component, and an aqueous carrier component. The compositions have viscosities of at least about 10 cps or about 100 cps at a shear rate of 0.1/second. In a preferred embodiment, the viscosity is in the range of from about 80,000 cps to about 300,000 cps. In a most preferred embodiment, the viscosity is in the range of from about 140,000 cps to about 280,000 cps at a shear rate of 0.1/second at 25° C. The compositions advantageously suspend the triamcinolone particles for prolonged periods of time.

Compositions, and methods of using such compositions, useful for injection into the posterior segments of human or animal eyes are provided. Such compositions include corticosteroid component-containing particles present in a therapeutically effective amount, a viscosity inducing component, and an aqueous carrier component. The compositions have viscosities of at least about 10 cps or about 100 cps at a shear rate of 0.1/second. In a preferred embodiment, the viscosity is in the range of from about 140,000 cps to about 300,000 cps. The compositions advantageously suspend the particles for prolonged periods of time.
摘要:
Observability of damage precursor, damage and usage states, or event occurrence may be enhanced by modifying component materials to include self-monitoring materials or by processing test material to alter the surface properties. The properties of the self monitoring materials, such as magnetic permeability or electrical conductivity, are monitored with electromagnetic sensors and provide greater property variations with component condition than the original component material. Processing includes shot peening or laser welding.

The Abstract of the Disclosure filed herewith has replaced the previous Abstract of the Disclosure that begins with the words, “A composite product comprising a substrate layer” with the following paragraph: An exemplary composite product and method of manufacturing is provided. In one embodiment, the method includes dewatering a first slurry through a dewatering belt to form a first substrate layer, applying a first functional layer onto at least a portion of the first substrate layer, and dewatering a second slurry through the dewatering belt to form a second substrate layer. A first side of the second substrate layer may be overlayed onto the first functional layer, and the layers may be cured, and the layers bonded.
摘要:
Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for administration into the interior of an eye of a person or animal are described. The present compositions include one or more components which are effective in providing a reduced toxicity relative to existing intraocular ophthalmic compositions. The present compositions include one or more therapeutic agents in amounts effective in providing a desired therapeutic effect when placed in an eye, and one or more retinal friendly excipients that have a reduced toxicity relative to benzyl alcohol or polysorbate 80. In certain compositions, the excipient component of the compositions comprises one or more cyclodextrins or cyclodextrin derivatives. Methods of using the compositions to treat ocular conditions are also described.
摘要:
This invention relates to a method of reducing an irritating or adverse side effect associated with the topical use of an active ophthalmic drug comprising incorporating an effective amount of a cyclodextrin or cyclodextrin derivative into a formulation to complex the active drug such that the concentration of the free active drug is reduced below a tolerable threshold, and incorporating an effective amount of a viscosity increasing agent in said formulation such that the bioavailability of said drug is high enough to be therapeutically effective, wherein the cyclodextrin or cyclodextrin derivative is not required to solubilize the active drug. Another aspect of this invention relates to topical ophthalmic formulations comprising an active drug, a cyclodextrin or cyclodextrin derivative, and a viscosity-enhancing agent, in effective amounts as stated above.
摘要:
A child car seat is disclosed. The car seat has a seat form for accommodating a child. A belt for retaining a child is disposed within the child car seat. A first buckle is operable between a first open position and a second other fastened position, for when fastened fastening the belt to retain a child and for when open facilitating installation and removal of a child from the child car seat. The child car seat also has an integrated interface port for removably retaining a first electronic circuit having communication circuitry for communicating with an automobile. The interface port has electrical conductors for electrically coupling with the electrical circuitry within the first electronic circuit.
摘要:
Biocompatible intraocular drug delivery systems include a anti-angiogenic macromolecular therapeutic agent and a polymeric component in the form of an implant, a microparticle, a plurality of implants or microparticles, and combinations thereof. The therapeutic agent is released in a biologically active form, for example, the therapeutic agent may retain its three dimensional structure when released into an eye of a patient, or the therapeutic agent may have an altered three dimensional structure but retain its therapeutic activity. The therapeutic agent contains a component selected from the group consisting of anti-angiogenesis peptides and nucleic acid agents. The implants may be placed in an eye to treat or reduce the occurrence of one or more ocular conditions, such as retinal damage, including glaucoma and proliferative vitreoretinopathy among others.
