Abstract: A kit for mucosally administering a metastable supersaturated solution of a pharmaceutical active agent to a human patient includes a first compartment comprising a first composition comprising a pharmaceutical active agent in solution at or below equilibrium solubility, and a second composition comprising an acidic buffer. The first and second compartments maintain separation of the first and second compositions during storage, and allow for mixing of the first and second compositions to form a supersaturated solution above equilibrium solubility of the pharmaceutical active agent for immediate mucosal administration to a human patient. In one embodiment, the second composition comprises an acidic buffer and the supersaturated solution has an acidic pH. Alternatively, the second composition comprises a basic buffer and the supersaturated solution has a basic pH.

Abstract: An oromucosally absorbable liquid composition for administration to a human patient comprises one liquid containing a pH-sensitive pharmaceutically active together with one or more optional suitable pharmaceutical excipients in a first compartment; and a second liquid at pH greater than 5 containing a buffer or alkaline components together with one or more optional suitable pharmaceutical excipients in a second distinct compartment; the first and second compartments maintaining separation of the first and second liquids during storage and allowing for mixing of the two liquids to form an oromucosally absorbable composition at the point of use.
