Abstract: A connector mountable to a syringe barrel has a proximal barrel-engaging portion, a distal luer fitment portion, and a fluid aperture therethrough. The barrel-engaging portion of the connector includes an axial ledge configured to abut the axial distal edge of a glass syringe barrel. The connector facilitates mounting a luer assembly to the barrel. The luer assembly may be a tip cap having a complementary luer fitment for connection to the luer fitment portion of the connector. The luer assembly may be a luer needle assembly having a complementary luer fitment for connection to the luer fitment portion of the connector. The connector and syringe may further include an immobile, compressible needle seal. The needle seal is adjacent to or engageable with the barrel-engaging portion of the connector. The syringe may be configured with a plunger capable of engaging a retractable needle.

Abstract: The invention provides improved methods for coadministration of colchicine with drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 (anciently referred to as cytochrome P450 isozyme 3A4) or the P-glycoprotein transporter, but not both. The method enables non-toxic coadministration of colchicine and the second drug at their ordinary levels safely and effectively without reducing the dose or frequency for either drug.

Abstract: Novel compounds are disclosed for the prophylaxis and treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) via the administration of an effective amount in a suitable pharmaceutical dosage of agents that are active by themselves or can deliver tin the large intestine active forms of the drugs such as 5ASA or benzoxazole acetic acid or platelet activating factors. The mechanism of the release is based on bacterial cleavage of an azo linkage in the mammalian lower bowel to release the active compound(s).
