The coating liquid for microneedle may further contain a water-soluble polyalcohol, and preferably a monosaccharide and/or a disaccharide is 30 to 95 mass %, a surfactant is 0.05 to 5 mass %, and a water-soluble polyalcohol is 10 mass % or less in the base. As the water-soluble polysaccharide, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hyaluronic acid, or carboxymethyl cellulose is preferable.

Abstract: Compositions, formulas, methods of making, mixing and applying insecticide formulations to different surfaces such as but not limited to interior surfaces of ovitraps, on walls and on chips and tiles to produce a texturized surface to allow for better transfer of the insecticidal active ingredients to insects, such as mosquitoes and the like, which land on or crawl on the surfaces, resulting in faster insect mortality rates. The texture of the insecticidal residue provides better transfer of the insecticidal active ingredients to insects that land on or crawl on the surface, resulting in faster insect mortality. The textured residue also enhances desirable surface characteristics for landing of mosquitoes and potentially other insects.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for topical treatment of the hyperpigmented lesions of melasma are presented. Such compositions include defensins in concentrations that are below those that exhibit antimicrobial activity, and can be in the form of a topically applied gel, lotion, wash, shampoo, cream, or mask. Various formulations for such compositions, which can include various pharmaceutically acceptable stabilizers, emollients, and fragrances, are provided.

Abstract: The instant invention relates to a semi-solid topical composition containing Pirfenidone and an antimicrobial/antiseptic agent such as Modified Diallyl Disulfide Oxide (M-DDO) and its preparation process, offering advantages compared to other pharmaceutical forms of topical administration known in the state of the art, useful as antifibrotic, anti-inflammatory and antiseptic agent in the prevention, treatment and reversion of acne and post acne lesions. Said compositions is also useful for reducing skin redness, detaining the formation of new acne outbreaks, reversing already existing outbreaks and regenerating skin damage caused by acne.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel formulations comprising a sprayable composition comprising tranexamic acid and chitosan for use in the treatment of wounds or injuries, in particular for use as a topical hemostatic composition or for surgical intervention and the process for preparation thereof.

Abstract: A liquid composition is provided which can be applied to broken fragments of a pressed powder cosmetic in order to recombine or reconstitute such fragments in their original packaging. This avoids wasting broken cosmetic fragments and further allows a consumer to use the reconstituted cosmetic for its original purpose.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical preparations, compositions, systems, and devices including medical devices and diagnostic or therapeutic agents, and methods to treat disease by modification of local tissue environment to modulate the therapeutic index of locally or systemically delivered therapeutic or diagnostic agents. Improved ability to reduce sympathetic nerve activity in the adventitia and perivascular tissues around arteries and veins in the body. Modulation of the local tissue environment around an artery to enable more effective denervation with or without a therapeutic agent. Modulation may include adjustment of the pH of the tissue.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pharmaceutical dosage form which is particularly useful for the prevention of an overdose of the pharmacologically active ingredient contained therein after accidental or intentional simultaneous administration of a plurality of the dosage forms containing an overall supratherapeutic dose of the pharmacologically active ingredient.

Abstract: Purified polyurea capsules that encapsulate active materials for use in personal care, fine fragrance, or deodorant products are provided as are methods for producing the same.

Abstract: A dressing composition for use as a skin dressing comprises an elastomeric-adhesive composition, and a zeolite comprising releasably adsorbed nitric oxide. The zeolite may comprise a transition metal cation such as Co, Fe, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ag or a mixture thereof as an extra-framework metal cation, preferably Zn. The elastomeric adhesive composition may be a hydrocolloid-adhesive composition comprising, hydrocolloid and elastomer. The dressing composition releases nitric oxide, which may have beneficial effects, when used on wounds or moist skin, with a substantially constant release rate over a long period of time. A dressing including a layer of the dressing composition has a backing layer and may have a release liner removably attached to the skin-contacting surface of the dressing layer.

Abstract: Transdermal delivery devices for the delivery of cannabidiol (CBD) and related moieties are shown and described. In a reservoir-patch design, a microporous, hydrophilic membrane and a backing define a reservoir that houses a mixture of CBD, a polar liquid, and a gelling agent, along with other moieties that seem to be enhanced or bioavailability of increased by the same. The hydrophilic membrane is coated with an amine-compatible silicone skin adhesive. In a monolithic design, a release liner is coated with a mixture of CBD and a PIB or amine-compatible silicone skin adhesive laminated to the backing material. In using CBD as a pure compound or as one to combine with other moieties, the invention is able to control delivery better than the prior art. Construction of the transdermal patch of reservoir type is also taught, which enables things such as Vitamin B12 to become part of the complex deliverable by the inventions.
