Abstract: The invention describes the use of an injectable form of Idebenone to induce protect from neuronal damage, improve recovery after brain trauma; stroke, intoxication, neurodegenerative diseases, memory loss or neuropathology associated with neuroinflammation or infection damage and to restore cognitive function, suppress disorientation, alcoholic and drug abuse associated syndromes and other signs of neuronal damage.

Abstract: The invention describes use of injectable form of Idebenone to improve recovery after general anesthesia and of cognitive functions, suppress disorientation and other signs of neuronal damage.

Abstract: Colloidal compositions, loaded with non-covalently bonded antibiotics, can be efficiently used for the treatment of severe bacterial pneumonia and other serious lung infections such as tuberculosis. Such formulations, comprised of biodegradable nanoparticles or nanocapsules with incorporated antibiotics, show a significant increase in antibacterial activity, extended and sustained drug release and a decrease in frequency of the drug administration. Antibiotics of various types, such as aminoglycosides, glycopeptides and others can be successfully incorporated into a nanoparticulate colloidal delivery system.

Abstract: The present invention describes a solid oral dosage form of ubiquinones (e.g., ubidecarenone, coenzyme Q-10, idebenone or mixture thereof), providing on contact with water or body fluids the regulated release of an “in situ” formed oil-in-water emulsion with ubiquinone incorporated in the oil phase. Described formulation demonstrates improved bioavailability.

Abstract: The invention is intended for a treatment of severe infections using an injectable drug-delivery system comprising nanoparticles of a biodegradable polymer with incorporated antibacterial drug.

Abstract: Topical composition for enhanced local and systemic delivery of poorly soluble biologically active compounds, comprises of non-volatile solvent or mixture of solvents to dissolve active component, and moisture absorbent or mixture of sorbents to prevent precipitation or crystallization of insoluble material after application

Abstract: The present invention relates to oxacyclopentene-2 derivatives as compounds possessing antiinflammatory, neuroprotective, immunomodulatory and cardiovascular activities in mammals.

Abstract: A method of packaging of azithromycin which provides improved stability of azithromycin upon storage. Additionally, compositions and methods of stabilizing azithromycin compositions are described. Stabilized azithromycin compositions comprise an intimate admixture of azithromycin and a stabilizing-effective amount of an antioxidant to improve the resistance of the azithromycin to degradation. Coprecipitation or co-milling of azithromycin and an antioxidant are particularly preferred means of achieving an intimate admixture. Pharmaceutical formulations comprising a stabilized azithromycin composition and methods of making such formulations are also described.

Abstract: The invention relates to a nanoparticulate colloidal delivery vehicle comprising a biodegradable polymer in combination with a hydrophobic lipid component. Variation of the lipid and polymer types and variation in the ratio between the polymer and lipid components allows regulation of drug loading and release rate.
