Abstract: The present invention overcomes the problems associated with existing drug delivery systems by delivering cannabinoids transdermally. Preferably, the cannabinoids are delivered via an occlusive body (i.e., a patch) to alleviate harmful side effects and avoid gastrointestinal (first-pass) metabolism of the drug by the patient.

Abstract: Described herein are abuse-resistant multi-layer transdermal patches comprising opioids and opioid prodrugs having a barrier layer located between the layer containing opioid or opioid prodrug and a layer containing an opioid antagonist or opioid antagonist prodrug.

Abstract: Described herein are opioid prodrugs, methods of making opioid agonist-antagonist prodrugs, compositions comprising opioid agonist-antagonist prodrugs, abuse-resistant formulations and dosage forms of opioid agonist-antagonist prodrugs, and methods of using opioid agonist-antagonist prodrugs.

Abstract: Described herein are microneedle drug delivery systems comprising a pharmaceutical compositions comprising pharmaceutically active agents (e.g., cannabidiol and prodrugs of cannabidiol) and microneedle arrays suitable for local and systemic delivery of the active agent to a mammal. Also described herein are methods of using a microneedle transdermal or topical drug delivery systems comprising pharmaceutical compositions, comprising cannabidiol and prodrugs of cannabidiol, and microneedle arrays in the treatment disease, including pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer.

Abstract: Described herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a cannabinoid, such as cannabidiol or a cannabidiol prodrug, which is metabolized to cannabidiol, and a penetration enhancer. Also described herein are methods of using the same. One embodiment described herein relates to the transdermal or topical administration of pharmaceutical compositions comprising a cannabinoid, such as cannabidiol or a cannabidiol prodrug, and a penetration enhancer to a person in need thereof.

Abstract: The present invention overcomes the problems associated with existing drug delivery systems by delivering cannabinoids transdermally. Preferably, the cannabinoids are delivered via an occlusive body (i.e., a patch) to alleviate harmful side effects and avoid gastrointestinal (first-pass) metabolism of the drug by the patient.

Abstract: Described herein are compositions comprising opioids, opioid antagonists and prodrugs of the same, formulations comprising opioids, opioid antagonists and prodrugs of the same, and methods of using opioids, opioid antagonists and prodrugs of the same. One embodiment described herein relates to the transdermal administration of a buprenorphine and encapsulated naltrexone in an abuse-resistant formulation for treating and preventing diseases and/or disorders.

Abstract: Described herein are opioid prodrugs, methods of making opioid prodrugs, formulations comprising opioid prodrugs, and methods of using opioid prodrugs. One embodiment described herein relates to the transdermal administration of a buprenorphine prodrug in an abuse-resistant formulation for treating and preventing diseases and/or disorders.

Abstract: Described herein is a method of transdermally administering one or more pharmaceutically active agents to a mammal. The method comprises administering one or more active pharmaceutical agents to the skin of the subject, in conjunction with microneedles and one or more COX inhibitors, whereby the COX inhibitors facilitate the absorption of the active pharmaceutical agents by prolonging the pore opening created by the application of the microneedle.
