  • Patent number: 9381518
    Abstract: Described herein is a process for preparing nano-suspensions, wherein the process comprises: providing an admixture of at least one active pharmaceutical compound, an aqueous dispersion medium, and milling media and applying thereto acoustic energy having a frequency of from about 10 hertz to 1000 hertz and which supplies a linear acceleration of from about 10 G's to about 100 G's (where ā€œGā€ is the force of gravity) for a period sufficient to supply a nano-suspension having a D50 of less than about 1 micron, preferably less than about 500 nm. Described also are nano-suspensions having novel properties prepared via the inventive process.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 26, 2012
    Date of Patent: July 5, 2016
    Assignee: Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.
    Inventors: Dennis Leung, Todd D. Nelson, Timothy A. Rhodes, Elizabeth Kwong

  • Patent number: 5254541
    Abstract: A complex of cyclodextrin and 3-[N-(p-chlorobenzyl)-3-(t-buthylthio)-5-(quinolin-2-ylmethoxy)indol-2-yl] -2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid, sodium salt is more soluble in water than the sodium salt alone. The complex is useful as an anti-asthmatic, anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, or cytoprotective agent. It is also useful in treating diarrhea, hypertension, angina, platelet aggregation, cerebral spasm, premature labor, spontaneous abortion, dysmenorrhea, and migraine.
