  • Publication number: 20240009209
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides formulations comprising a holding medium and homogeneously dispersed therein protein-bound cannabinoid, wherein the cannabinoid and the protein in the protein-bound cannabinoid are at a weight ratio of at least 10 mg cannabinoid to 50 mg protein (10:50 w/w). The formulations have shown to be in the form of particles enabling upon local injection prolonged release of the cannabinoid. Also provided by the present disclosure is a method of obtaining the protein-bound cannabinoid and uses thereof.

  • Publication number: 20230129331
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides liposomal formulations comprising a lipid membrane comprising at least one liposome forming phospholipid and a sterol; and an intraliposomal aqueous compartment encapsulating at least one ATI receptor blocker (ARB) and a pH-dependent ionizable anion; with the liposomes having an effect upon administration to a subject in need of said effect, without causing a reduction in mean blood pressure of said subject of more than 50% as compared to the administration of the same amount of ARB in free form. The liposomes can be for systemic administration, e.g. by injection or for pulmonary administration, e.g.

  • Publication number: 20220347096
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides prolonged release formulation of cannabinoids. The formulation comprises liposomes having a lipid membrane and an intraliposomal aqueous core, wherein said liposome comprises either an entrapped cannabinoid and at least one dispersing agent of said cannabinoid, said dispersing agent being other than a cyclodextrin (CD) compound; or an entrapped cannabinoid, at least a portion of said cannabinoid being entrapped in said lipid membrane, and wherein said lipid membrane comprises a mole ratio between said cannabinoid and said one or more liposome forming lipids in the range of 1 to 10. Also disclosed are methods of preparing and uses of the formulations for prolonged delivery of the cannabinoids and therapeutic treatments making use of same.

  • Publication number: 20220313686
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a first opioid antagonist and a second opioid antagonist, wherein the first opioid antagonist has a half-life in plasma that is of shorter duration than the half-life of the second opioid antagonist in the plasma and wherein the second opioid antagonist is encapsulated within liposomes. The composition may be embedded or entrapped within a water insoluble, water absorbable polymeric matrix, to form a composite water. The pharmaceutical composition or the composite material can be used in a method of counteracting opioid overdose in a subject by administering the same, preferably by intramuscular injection, to the subject.
