Abstract: The present invention relates to improved methods and compositions for treating viral infections and other diseases and conditions that induce a cytokine storm. More particularly, the present invention relates to novel compositions comprising quercitin, and an anti-convulsant, such as phenytoin, in combination with mulivitamins as an anti-viral composition and methods of use thereof.
Abstract: A sample retrieval device for collecting fluid from skin. The sample retrieval device has a lancing device and an analytic device integrated into a single body, the analytic device residing in a sample retrieval portion of the body. The body is also equipped with a signal pathway and an engagement portion. The lancing device and the fluid inlet in the sample retrieval portion are positioned in the body so that the fluid released by the lancing device is taken up into the fluid inlet by having the body direct the lancing device and the sample retrieval portion to the fluid released from the skin by pivoting.
Abstract: This invention provides for an integrated device having a lance and analytic device in a single disposable unit where the lance releases fluid from skin and the analytic device collects and analyzes the fluid without the user removing an instrument housing which holds the disposable unit. In addition to the device, this invention provides for methods of using and manufacturing the device.
