Abstract: An intra-oral, nanoemulsion blend is provided that enhances liver and toxin excretion performance in mammals when orally administered. A solid powder toxin binding composition also is provided that may be used to irreversibly bind the toxins reaching the bowel so that once the toxins are excreted into the bowel, they may not be reabsorbed, and are thus eliminated. A method of administering the nanoemulsion blend and the toxin binding composition to enhance toxin excretion also is described. The nanoemulsion blend is ingestible and edible.
Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide a mucoadhesive oral preparation having high drug absorption rate and rapid drug release rate.
