Abstract: The present invention is effective for the treatment and relief of cough produced by posterior nasal secretion, through the use of the combination of Oximetazoline and Ipratropium. The active agents enunciated in the combination of the present invention have been used and marketed separately with different uses to those of the present invention. The oxymetazoline to eliminate nasal secretion and congestion (obstruction), and ipratropium bromide is marketed for the purpose of dilating the bronchial tubes in asthmatic patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, although experimentally it has also been used to decrease nasal secretion. Both active agents, together or separately have not been used so far as antitussives intranasally. The cough produced by the posterior nasal secretion, is the most frequent cause of cough in the human being of any age, the present invention is effective for the treatment and relief of said symptom.
Abstract: The present invention describes methods and compositions for improving the therapeutic efficacy of therapeutically active agents previously limited by suboptimal therapeutic performance by either improving efficacy as monotherapy or reducing side effects. Such methods and compositions are particularly applicable to therapeutically active agents selected from the group consisting of: (i) indirubin; (ii) an analog of indirubin; (iii) a derivative of indirubin or of an analog of indirubin; and (iv) a pharmaceutical composition comprising indirubin, an analog of indirubin, or a derivative of indirubin or of an analog of indirubin, especially meisoindigo.
Abstract: A composition for prevention or treatment of pulmonary fibrosis comprising chromenone derivatives represented by Formula I of the present invention or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof as an active ingredient, produces altered heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) dimers, thereby preventing normal HSP27 non-phosphorylated polymers from performing a chaperone function and reducing a cell protection function that chaperone originally performs. Thus the inventive composition has a remarkable inhibitory effect on pulmonary fibrosis, in particular, an irradiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis phenomenon.

Abstract: Compounds that inhibit digestion in blood-ingesting pests are described herein. In one embodiment, the compounds described herein block entry of blood into the midgut and thereby inhibit digestion and nutrient processing. In another embodiment, the compounds described herein prevent pathogens contained in the blood meal from entering the midgut where they could cross the epithelial cell layer and infect the mosquito. The compounds can be administered to a population of blood-ingesting pests, such as mosquitos, directly or indirectly in an effective amount to prevent mosquitoes from transmitting diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, West Nile virus and lymphatic filariasis. Preferably, the compounds are lethal to blood-ingesting pests. The compounds can be combined with one or more excipients to prepare compositions.
