  • Publication number: 20240165125
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a carbamazepine-cyclodextrin inclusion complex useful for the parenteral administration of carbamazepine. The carbamazepine-cyclodextrin inclusion complex is prepared by the admixture of a modified cyclodextrin and carbamazepine in a physiologically acceptable fluid. Modified cyclodextrins include 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin and sulfoalkyl cyclodextrins. More particularly, the sulfoalkyl cyclodextrins are those described and disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,134,127 and 5,376,645. A physiologically acceptable fluid includes sterile isotonic water, Ringer's lactate, D5W (5% dextrose in water), physiological saline, and similar fluids suitable for parenteral administration.

  • Publication number: 20150335624
    Abstract: A method of treating a seizure disorder is described wherein an acetylcholinesterase(AChE) inhibitor is administered to a subject having a seizure disorder and an increased risk of a cardiac event from the seizure disorder, wherein the AChE inhibitor decreases the risk of such cardiac event. Further described are methods of decreasing the risk of a cardiac event in subjects with or without a seizure disorder by administering a therapeutically effective amount of an AChE inhibitor. Methods of treating kidney disease and reducing an elevated CRP level by administering an AChE inhibitor are also described.
