Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of anaphylaxis formulated for rapid delivery, in one embodiment, the delivery vehicle is a rapidly dissolving film. The films contain an epinephrine or a novel epinephrine pro-drag for fee rapid treatment of anaphylaxis in a patient. This invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions made by modifying the physicochemical properties of epinephrine in order to enhance its permeability through biological membranes (sublingual and buccal membranes). Several prodrugs of epinephrine are shown by modifying the two hydroxyl (phenolic) groups in positions 3 and 4 on the benzene ring, by chemically reacting the two groups with several acid moieties to form an ester bond with different alkyl chains. The addition of an alkyl group will enhance the lipophilicity of epinephrine (increase log P) and will consequently increase its permeability through the biological membranes (sublingual and buccal tissues in the oral cavity).

Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment of solid tumors in humans such as cancer, especially colorectal cancer (CRC), which involves administering the diastereomerically pure folate adjuvant [6R]-5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate in 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) based chemotherapy.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to compositions and methods for treating or preventing vasomotor symptoms such as hot flashes, comprising a Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 8 (TRPM8) antagonist and administering a TRPM8 antagonist, respectively.

Abstract: The invention provides use of entacapone, an entacapone derivative or a stereoisomer, hydride, or pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, in a person in need thereof, to treat or inhibit macular degeneration or age-related macular degeneration, and related compostions.
