Abstract: The present invention relates the use of &agr;1A and/or &agr;1L adrenergic receptor antagonists for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction (FSD), in particular female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD) and/or female orgasmic disorder (FOD). The present invention also relates to a method of treatment of FSD, in particular FSAD and/or FOD, as well as to assays to screen for compounds useful in the treatment of FSD, in particular FSAD and/or FOD.

Abstract: A composition comprises (1) a solid amorphous adsorbate comprising a cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor and a substrate; and (2) an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor. The solid amorphous adsorbate provides concentration enhancement of the CETP inhibitor relative to a control composition consisting essentially of the unadsorbed CETP inhibitor alone, resulting in improved bioavailability.
