Abstract: A composition for modulating generation of pro-inflammatory cytokines comprises levocabastine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester thereof. Such composition is useful for treating or controlling diseases having an inflammatory component, such as ocular diseases that are caused by inflammation or have inflammatory sequelae.

Abstract: A composition for treating, controlling, reducing, or ameliorating inflammatory pain comprises a dissociated glucocorticoid receptor agonist (“DIGRA”), a prodrug thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester thereof. The composition can comprise an additional anti-inflammatory agent and can be formulated for topical application, injection, or implantation. It may be used in a method of managing ocular inflammation and/or pain such that it has lower risk of eliciting increased intraocular pressure seen with glucocorticoids.

Abstract: A method of protecting tissue from trauma during a surgical procedure, the method comprising the step of coating at least a portion of the tissue with a viscoelastic composition comprising: a mixture of hyaluronic acid and/or salts thereof and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, wherein the concentration of hyaluronic acid and/or salts thereof is a minimum of about 0.1% w/v and a maximum of about 6% w/v and the concentration of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is a minimum of about 0.05% w/v and a maximum of about 5% w/v, based upon the total volume of the viscoelastic composition; tris[hydroxymethyl]aminomethane at a maximum of about 50 mM and a minimum of about 0.1 mM based upon the total weight of the viscoelastic composition; and a hexahydric alcohol.

Abstract: A composition for treating or controlling an inflammatory anterior-segment disease or condition comprises a dissociated glucocorticoid receptor agonist (“DIGRA”). The composition can optionally include an anti-inflammatory agent, an anti-infective agent, or both. The composition can be formulated for topical application, injection, or implantation in the anterior portion of the eye or a tissue adjacent thereto.

Abstract: The present invention is a viscoelastic composition, methods of use and a related device, wherein the viscoelastic composition comprises water, a minimum of about 0.01% w/v and a maximum of about 10% w/v of hyaluronic acid or a salt thereof and a minimum of about 0.01% w/v and a maximum of about 10% w/v of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, wherein the viscoelastic comprises less than 0.01% w/v chondroitin sulfate.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a viscoelastic composition comprising an aqueous solution having a minimum of about 0.01% w/v and a maximum of about 20% w/v of a viscoelastic polymer based upon the total volume of the viscoelastic composition. Typically, the viscoelastic composition further contains tris[hydroxymethyl]aminomethane and a polyol (for example sorbitol). The present invention also includes methods of use of the new viscoelastic composition and a packaging device.
