Patent number: 4788061Abstract: The healing of a number of skin disorders is effectively enhanced by prolonged continuous occlusion and/or hydration. Treating these disorders, e.g. psoriasis, is significantly facilitated by occluding affected skin areas with a suitable barrier for a prolonged and continuous period of time. Such occlusion is effective by itself, but is materially improved by concurrent topical administration of medicament useful for treating the disorder. In such cases the prolonged, continuous occlusion markedly increases hydration which has the further therapeutic benefit of tremendously facilitating penetration of medicament. The provided barrier is advantageously one with low vapor transmission or one which is water impermeable.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 1985Date of Patent: November 29, 1988Inventor: Ronald N. Shore

Patent number: 4684644Abstract: The present invention is directed to a class of basic monocarboxyamide derivatives of actagardine. Actagardine (INN) is an antibiotic substance produced by actinoplanes strains such as Actinoplanes Sp. ATCC 31048 and Actinoplanes Sp. ATCC 31049 which are described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,022,884. Actagardine shows antimicrobial in vitro and in vivo activity against gram-positive organisms. Its complete chemical structure is not yet known but there is only information on its chemical functions and main fragments. In particular, it has been found that actagardine has two carboxylic functions and a primary amino function and can therefore be represented as follows: ##STR1## The compounds of the invention are monoamide derivatives at one of the carboxy functions of actagardine.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 1986Date of Patent: August 4, 1987Assignee: Gruppo Lepetit S.p.A.Inventors: Adriano Malabarba, Bruno Cavalleri
