Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions comprising an NSAID such as meloxicam and/or rizatriptan in combination with a cyclodextrin and/or a carbonate or a bicarbonate. These compositions may be orally administered, for example, to improve the bioavailability or pharmacokinetics of the NSAID for the treatment of pain such as migraine, arthritis, and other conditions. Also disclosed herein are methods of treating pain, such as migraine, comprising administering meloxicam and rizatriptan to a human being suffering from pain, such as migraine. For migraine, these methods may be particularly useful when the meloxicam and rizatriptan are administered while the human being is suffering from an acute attack of migraine pain or migraine aura. In some embodiments, the combination of meloxicam and rizatriptan may be administered in a manner that results in a Tmax of meloxicam of 3 hours or less.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides orally deliverable pharmaceutical compositions comprising DGLA and to methods of using same to treat a variety of conditions and disorders.

Abstract: Nanoscale emulsions can be made by means of condensing a liquid vapor onto another liquid. The precise size, chemical composition, and density of emulsions may be controlled through varying the experimental parameters, such as surfactant concentration, time of condensation, humidity, and temperature.

Abstract: A parenteral unit dosage form comprising an aqueous solution of dihydroergotamine or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as a sole active ingredient, one or more pH adjusting agents, and optionally one or more co-solvents, wherein the pH of the aqueous solution is such that it contains substantially lower amount of impurity of Formula I and impurity of Formula II as compared to aqueous solution having a pH of 4.0 or less, when the parenteral unit dosage form is stored at 25° C. and 60% relative humidity for at least three months.

Abstract: A method of compounding a topical composition includes combining lidocaine and prilocaine, 2.5%/2.5%, cream, diclofenac sodium, 1.5%, topical solution, lidocaine hydrochloride, 4%, topical solution, diclofenac sodium USP powder, lidocaine hydrochloride USP monohydrate powder, and prilocaine hydrochloride USP powder and mixing to generate a cream.

Abstract: Methods are provided herein for selectively killing senescent cells and for treating senescence-associated diseases and disorders by administering a senolytic agent. Senescence-associated diseases and disorders treatable by the methods using the senolytic agents described herein include cardiovascular diseases and disorders associated with or caused by arteriosclerosis, such as atherosclerosis; idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; osteoarthritis; senescence-associated ophthalmic diseases and disorders; and senescence-associated dermatological diseases and disorders.

Abstract: An enhanced medical dressing for treatment of wounds is provided. A dressing is augmented by one or more enhancers thereon. The enhancers include a collagen, an antibiotic, or both. The enhanced medical dressing is prepared by placing and mixing the collagen, the antibiotic, and the dressing within a container. On mixing, the enhanced medical dressing is formed such that the enhancer adheres to the dressing by, for example, adsorption or an electrostatic force. The enhanced medical dressing when applied to the wound causes the collagen and the antibiotic to be released into the wound. Further, the enhanced medical dressing degrades over time due to contact with physiological moisture.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel 6,7-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrazin-4(5H)-one derivatives of Formula (I) as negative allosteric modulators (NAMs) of the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 2 (“mGluR2”). The invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, to processes for preparing such compounds and compositions, and to the use of such compounds and compositions for the prevention or treatment of disorders in which the mGluR2 subtype of metabotropic receptors is involved.

Abstract: Methods that include determining levels of melatonin pathway agents (melatonin, L-tryptophan, 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), serotonin, N-acetylserotonin (NAS), and melatonin receptor 1A (MT1)) in Hypoxic-ischemic brain injury in both newborns (HIE) and adults (stroke), and in ALS, and optionally administering these agents to treat these conditions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to use of a composition comprising D-glyceric acid (DGA), DL-glyceric acid, L-glyceric acid, or hydroxypyruvatic acid and/or their salts or esters. Further, the invention relates to the use of said composition for enhancing direct and indirect mitochondrial metabolism, e.g. the ATP producing electron transport system (ETS), citric acid cycle or tricarboxylic acid cycle, (TCA), and beta oxidation, and also enhancing the shuttling of reducing equivalents from mitochondrial matrix into the cytosol and protein synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum. Directly related to the above the use of DGA relates also to reducing the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Alleviating, preventing and even healing effects towards extremely wide range of non-communicable diseases materializes.

Abstract: Disclosed in certain embodiments is a controlled release oral dosage form comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a drug susceptible to abuse together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients; the dosage form further including a gelling agent in an effective amount to impart a viscosity unsuitable for administration selected from the group consisting of parenteral and nasal administration to a solubilized mixture formed when the dosage form is crushed and mixed with from about 0.5 to about 10 ml of an aqueous liquid; the dosage form providing a therapeutic effect for at least about 12 hours when orally administered to a human patient.

Abstract: The present disclosure encompasses antibacterial compositions and methods of treating bacterial infections caused by resistant bacteria.
