Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound of diclofenac-tramadol salt in 1:1 ratio and a pharmaceutical formulation comprising such compound. The present invention also relates to a method for treating a patient with moderate to moderately severe pain. The method comprises: identifying a patient suffering from moderate to moderately severe pain with pain intensity scale of 5-9, and administering to said patient the diclofenac-tramadol salt, in an effective amount. The method is particularly useful in treating postoperative pain after Cesarean, postoperative pain after non-Cesarean surgeries, cancer pain, osteoarthritis pain, or rheumatoid arthritis pain.

Abstract: A method for treating an angiogenesis-related disorder. The method includes administrating to a subject in need thereof an effective amount of a compound of the formula: Each of Ar1, Ar2, and Ar3, independently, is phenyl, thienyl, furyl, pyrrolyl, pyridinyl, or pyrimidinyl; each of R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6, independently, is R, nitro, halogen, C(O)OR, C(O)SR, C(O)NRR?, (CH2)mOR, (CH2)mSR, (CH2)mNRR?, (CH2)mCN, (CH2)mC(O)OR, (CH2)mCHO, (CH2)mCH?NOR, or R1 and R2 together, R3 and R4 together, or R5 and R6 together are O(CH2)mO, in which each of R and R?, independently, is H or C1˜C6 alkyl; and m is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, and n is 0, 1, 2, or 3.

Abstract: A method for enhancing learning and memory or treating amnesia. The method includes administrating to a subject in need thereof a compound of the formula (I): A is H, R, or ?each of Ar1, Ar2, and Ar3, independently, is phenyl, thienyl, furyl, or pyrrolyl; each of R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6, independently, is H, nitro, halogen, R, OH, OR, C(O)OH, C(O)OR, C(O)SH, C(O)SR, C(O)NH2, C(O)NHR, C(O)NRR?, ROH, ROR?, RSH, RSR?, ROC(O)R?OH, NHR, NRR?, RNHR?, or RNR?R?; or R1 and R2 together, R3 and R4 together, or R5 and R6 together are ORO; wherein each of R, R?, and R?, independently is C1˜C6 alkyl; and n is 1, 2, or 3. The compound is in an effective amount for enhancing learning and memory or treating amnesia.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel pharmaceutical compositions for azole antimicrobial drugs such as itraconazole, saperconazole, ketoconazole, and fluconazole. The pharmaceutical compositions are in the form of pellets which comprise a core and a drug emulsion layer, and optionally, a protective layer. The drug emulsion layer contains the azole antimicrobial drug, an emulsifier, a binder, and an absorbent aid. The preferred emulsifier is vitamin E polyethylene glycol succinate. The preferred binder is hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. The preferred absorbent aid is DL malic acid. The drug is dissolved in organic solvents. The preferred organic solvents are ethanol and methylene chloride. The protective layer contains polyethylene glycol (PEG) 20,000, which is coated on the drug emulsion layer.

Abstract: The present invention provides pharmaceutical formulations which contain (a) an inert core of sugar, sugar and starch, or microcrystalline cellulose, (b) a drug emulsion layer which is made from mixing a free base of benzimidazole derivative (such as omeprazole or lansoprazole) with a nonionic surfactant and water, (c) a protective coating which is made of a film-forming compound, and optionally a plasticizer or excipient, and (d) an enteric coating which is made of a pharmaceutically acceptable polymer and a plasticizer. Optionally, a basic amino acid can be added to the drug emulsion layer or the protective coating. The present invention also provides the method for making the pharmaceutical formulations.
