Abstract: For the prevention of parasite infestation of animals, an isoxazoline can be administered by drinking water route. However the inventors have found that when the drinking water is sanitized, for instance by using hypochlorite, the isoxazoline becomes degraded. Surprisingly, the isoxazoline can be protected from degradation by the use of a vitamin E. A pharmaceutical composition can now be prepared containing a concentrated solution of the isoxazoline in a solvent and co-solvent, with vitamin E. The composition can be diluted in drinking water, even when sanitized, to prepare medicated drinking water for animals. This way an anti-parasitic treatment can be mass-administered, leading to a highly effective reduction of the parasite infestation of an animal, and its surroundings.

Abstract: The polymeric clotrimazole biofilm for the treatment of otomycosis contains clotrimazole or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as the active pharmaceutical ingredient in a polymer biofilm thug delivery vehicle. The polymer may be a bio compatible polymer, such as hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC). Propylene glycol may be added to the mixture as a plasticizer to promote formation of the film. The drug and the polymer may be solvated in a casting solvent and then mixed in a 1:3 ratio of drug:polymer. About 15% propylene glycol may be added to the mixture, which is then heated at 40° C. until a thin, flexible film forms. A round, knife-thick patch of the biofilm may be applied to the patient's ear through the external canal and over the tympanic membrane.
