  • Patent number: 11065151
    Abstract: An injectable formulation of therapeutic agent may comprise the therapeutic agent and a stabilizer such that a substantial portion of the stabilizer remains in the therapeutic device to stabilize the therapeutic agent when the therapeutic agent is released from the therapeutic device. The injectable formulation may comprise one or more of binding agent particles or erodible material particles, such that the formulation can be injected into the therapeutic device. The binding agent particles can bind reversibly to the therapeutic agent so as to modulate release of the therapeutic agent, and the erodible material particles can generate protons of an acid so as to increase stability of the therapeutic agent and may modulate release of the therapeutic agent. The therapeutic agent can be combined with one or more of the stabilizer, the binding agent particles or the erodible particles to increase stability of the therapeutic agent and may modulate release.

  • Publication number: 20060018840
    Abstract: An aerosolizable formulation comprises free-base nicotine, an organic acid, and a hydrofluoroalkane propellant. The organic acid is present in a mole ratio with said nicotine in a range of about 0.25:1 (organic acid:nicotine) to about 4:1 (organic acid:nicotine). The organic acid and said free-base nicotine form a nicotine salt. An equivalent mixture of free-base nicotine and organic acid in water has a pH between about pH 3.0 and about pH 9.0. The aerosolizable formulation is aerosolizable, for example, by a metered dose inhaler for administration to a user.
