Abstract: A soluble formulation of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that can be orally administered to animals. The formulation includes a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, a base of an amino acid, and a strong base. The formulation can be prepared in a dry or liquid form. The formulation can be dissolved in an animal's drinking water to provide an appropriate dosage of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug to the animal for treatment.

Abstract: A readily water-soluble ingestible form of ketoprofen is provided by the reaction of ketoprofen and any edible weak base to yeild a palatable, stable, safe pharamaceutical solution for mass medication of animals. Any edible weak base such as sodium bicarbonate may be used with ketoprofen in a ratio of 10 to 1 by weight.

Abstract: The present invention includes a topical anesthetic composition having one or more local anesthetic agents, a penetration enhancer, and an anhydrous, volatile solvent combined to provide a liquid homogenous solution. The present invention may also include water in the topical anesthetic composition as concentration levels low enough to avoid precipitation of the local anesthetic agent and penetration enhancer from solution and undesired enhanced delivery of the local anesthetic agent through the skin or mucosa to the systemic circulation. The topical anesthetic composition can be conveniently sprayed onto intact skin and can be absorbed percutaneously with greater efficacy in order to shorten the time needed for the anesthesia to take effect.

Abstract: An arrangement for practizing walking comprises a treadmill (10) serving as a walking substrate, a harness (14) which may be mounted on a patient (11), a suspension cable (16) connectable to the harness, and a device (19) by which a lifting force of an adjustable magnitude may be applied on the patient (11) through the cable (16) and the harness (14). Said device (19) comprises a pulley (20) around which the cable (16) extends in a bight (41). This pulley (20) is arranged for limited movement in a direction transverse to its rotary axis (22) in order to permit a limited variation of the length of said bight (41). By means of an elastically yieldable force generating means (30), an adjustable force, which is substantially independent of the instantaneous position of said pulley (20), may be applied on the pulley (20) in a direction to cause said bight (41) of the cable (16) to assume its maximum length.
