Abstract:
The present invention provides a lipid based system for isolating components in a pharmaceutical formulation. Also provided are methods for preparing stable pharmaceutical formulations containing at least two active ingredients. Further provided are methods of treating helminthiasis in mammals, which comprises administering a pharmaceutical composition that is highly effective against helminths, particularly tapeworn, hookworm, roundworm and heartworm of domestic animals and farm animals.
Abstract:
A topical insecticide is provided which can be safe to use and avoids many common deleterious side effects of conventional topical insecticides. In one preferred embodiment of the invention, the active ingredient of the insecticide formulation is an amine derivative, having a nitro-methylene group, a nitroamino group or a cyanoamino group, which can be formulated to have low toxicity and excellent insecticidal activity. One particularly suitable insecticide is 1-{(tetrahydro-3-furanyl)methyl}-2-nitro-3-methylguanidine (dinotefuran), an aldulticide that will kill adult fleas, dissolved in phenyl methanol or ethanol and ethyl lactate.

Abstract:
A topical insecticide preparation is provided which can be safe to use and avoids many common deleterious side effects of conventional topical insecticides. The topical insecticide contains a combination of a first pyrethroid insecticide effective for killing fleas, a second pyrethroid insecticide effective for killing ticks, and an insect growth regulator (IGR). The topical insecticide preparation can be packaged together or packaged so that the first and second pyrethroid insecticides are stored separately prior to administration of the insecticide preparation to the animal. The combination of the first and second pyrethroid insecticides with an insect growth regulator results in an insecticide preparation formulated to have enhanced insecticidal activity against fleas and ticks compared to the effectiveness of the first and second insecticides used alone. Further, the combination of the first and second pyrethroid insecticides with an insect growth regulator produces an insecticide preparation having enhanced insecticidal activity against fleas and ticks while advantageously minimizing the total amount of insecticide needed for its effectiveness.
Abstract:
The present invention provides stable lipid-based pharmaceutical formulations containing ivermectin, praziquantel and pyrantel pamoate, and methods for preparing the formulations. Further provided is a method of treating helminthiasis of mammals, which comprises administering a pharmaceutical composition that is highly effective against helminths, particularly tapeworm, hookworm, roundworm and heartworm of domestic animals and farm animals.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for preparing a pharmaceutical formulation containing ivermectin and a method and composition that can contain ivermectin plus tetrahydropyrimidines. An examples of a tetrahydropyrimidine includes pyrantel. A pharmaceutical formulation is provided for use in the treatment of helminthiasis of mammals, and particularly tapeworm, hookworm, roundworm and heartworm of domestic animals and farm animals. The present invention also provides a method of treating helminthiasis in mammals, which method comprises administering to the mammal in need thereof an anthelmintically effective amount of a pharmaceutical formulation of the invention.
Abstract:
A topical insecticide is provided which can be safe to use and avoids many common deleterious side effects of conventional topical insecticides. The insecticide contains an insecticide and an insect growth regulator effective for killing fleas, flea larvae and flea eggs. The insecticide is formulated by dissolving an insecticidal (tetrahydro-3-furanyl) methylamine derivative or a chloronicotinyl insecticide and an insect growth regulator (IGR) in a solvent containing a quaternary ammonium salt to increase the solvency of the IGR component, thereby providing an insecticide having high insecticidal activity.
