Also provided herein are methods of inhibiting a PKC? in a subject in need thereof, that can include the step of administering an effective amount of a compound that is capable of inhibiting a PKC?.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pharmaceutical formulation comprising nicotine. The formulation can be aerosolised at ambient temperature for delivery via inhalation. The invention also relates to a method of delivering nicotine to a subject via inhalation, and specifically via the use of a nebuliser.

Abstract: Beta-hydroxybutyric acid compositions for oral delivery are substantially free of beta-hydroxybutyrate salts and are effective in rapidly raising blood ketone levels without causing acute acidosis or gastrointestinal (GI) distress when consumed in sufficiently dilute form and/or as a gel or suspension. By excluding beta-hydroxybutyrate salts (e.g., less than 1% by weight) containing alkali or alkaline earth metal ions, beta-hydroxybutyric acid solutions, gels, or suspensions can deliver exogenous ketone bodies without significantly altering electrolyte balance. Although aqueous beta-hydroxybutyric acid solutions are moderately acidic with a pH of about 3.5 to 4, when diluted with sufficient water, the water acts as a pseudo buffering agent that offsets otherwise harsh acidic effects when consumed orally. Gels and suspensions can also ameliorate acidic effects by partially encapsulating the beta-hydroxybutyric acid.

Abstract: The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising an aqueous solution of an ibuprofen solubilizing agent and ibuprofen, the ibuprofen solubilizing agent being in an effective amount such that the ibuprofen in the solution remains soluble at concentrations from 100 mg/mL to 5 mg/mL without undergoing a phase transition. The invention further provides a method of treating a condition chosen from pain, inflammation, fever, and/or patent ductus arteriosis, comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of an aqueous solution a ibuprofen solubilizing agent and ibuprofen, the ibuprofen solubilizing agent being in an effective amount such that the ibuprofen in the solution remains soluble at concentrations from 100 mg/mL to 5 mg/mL without undergoing a phase transition, as well as a method for manufacturing the composition.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for treating a condition associated with hyperproliferating cells, the method including the steps of administering to a subject having the condition a composition including at least one cannabinoid receptor agonist, optionally administering to the subject a photodynamic compound, and administering radiation to the subject in whom the at least one cannabinoid receptor agonist is present so as to treat the condition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a therapeutically effective amount of cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) in the treatment of epilepsy. In one embodiment the CBDA is used in the treatment of generalised seizures, preferably tonic-clonic seizures. Preferably the CBDA used is in the form of a botanical drug substance in which the CBDA content is greater than 60%, and most preferably, it is a highly purified extract of cannabis such that the CBDA is present at greater than 95%, through 96% and 97% to most preferably, greater than 98% of the total extract (w/w) and the other components of the extract are characterised. In particular the cannabinoids tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or tetrahydrocannabinol acid (THCA) have been substantially removed. Alternatively, the CBDA may be synthetically produced.
