Abstract: Method for preparing a wet granule formulation of paroxetine hydrochloride are disclosed. The formulations are suitable for tabletting and capsulation.

Abstract: A free-flowing, amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride composition suitable as a therapeutic agent for premature ejaculation can be prepared by dissolving paroxetine free base in a hydrochloric acid-ethanol solution followed by drying. The present compositions comprise amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride and at least one hydroxyl-bearing compound. In one preferred embodiment, the hydroxyl-bearing compound is ethanol and the amount of ethanol present in the amorphous product is in the range of 1 to 4 weight percent based on paroxetine hydrochloride. The amorphous product is stable and substantially non-hygroscopic.

Abstract: Impotence can be ameliorated without substantial undesirable side effects by nasal administration of apomorphine, optionally with an antiemetic agent present in an amount sufficient to substantially reduce nausea symptoms that may be associated with the use of apomorphine.

Abstract: Described herein are methods for manufacturing amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride by mixing a carboxylic acid salt of paroxetine with hydrogen chloride and isolating the amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride. Also described herein are methods for manufacturing substantially pure paroxetine free base and methods for obtaining paroxetine salts such as paroxetine acetate, paroxetine trifluoroacetate, and paroxetine formate. Also described are methods for preparing paroxetine carbonate, paroxetine phosphate, paroxetine sulfate, and analogous salts thereof. The paroxetine salts may be formulated for the treatment of medical disorders as described.

Abstract: A stable amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride composition suitable as a therapeutic agent is prepared employing an aqueous solvent medium containing an acidulant and polyvinylpyrrolidone and drying the resulting solid dispersion. The preferred compositions include amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride, polyvinylpyrrolidone and citric acid.

Abstract: A process for the synthesis of arylpiperidine carbinol intermediates and derivatives is disclosed.

Abstract: Psychogenic impotence can be ameliorated without substantial undesirable side effects by administration of apomorphine and an antiemetic agent in an amount sufficient to substantially reduce nausea symptoms associated with the use of apomorphine.

Abstract: Sexual dysfunction in human females can be ameliorated, without substantial undesirable side effects, by apomorphine. Administration of apomorphine increases nerve stimulated clitoral intracavernosal blood flow and vaginal wall blood flow for enhanced clitoral erection and vaginal engorgement in a female. A plasma concentration of apomorphine of no more than about 5.5 nanograms per milliliter is preferably maintained.

Abstract: Symptoms of Parkinson's disease and psychogenic male erectile dysfunction (MED) can be ameliorated through the use of apomorphine. The adverse side effects of apomorphine administration, such as nausea, vomiting, yawning, and cardiovascular effects, can be significantly reduced by a dose escalating method of acclimatization. An initial dose of apomorphine is administered to the patient, and subsequently increased over a period of time until a final apomorphine dose in excess of a desired therapeutic dose has been received by the patient. Thereafter a therapeutic dose of apomorphine, less than the final apomorphine dose, is administered to the patient with attendant reduced side effects.

Abstract: Sexual dysfunction in human females can be ameliorated, without substantial undesirable side effects, by sublingual administration of apomorphine dosage forms. Administration of apomorphine increases nerve stimulated clitoral intracavernosal blood flow and vaginal wall blood flow for enhanced clitoral erection and vaginal engorgement in a female. A plasma concentration of apomorphine of no more than about 5.5 nanograms per milliliter is preferably maintained.

Abstract: A composition providing a relatively slow release of water-soluble drugs, such as apomorphine, for delivery via the sublingual or buccal routes.

Abstract: A direct compression tablet exhibiting relatively low hardness provides a relatively rapid release of fluoxetine. The tablet has a hardness of no more than about 6 kilopascals and a dicalcium phosphate dihydrate-to-disintegrant weight ratio of about 3 to about 7.

Abstract: Derivatives of 1,2-O-isopropylidene-.alpha.,D-glucofuranose and intermediates for preparing these derivatives are described. These derivatives are useful for treating animals and mammals with inflammatory and/or autoimmune disorders such as autoimmune deficiency syndrome, psoriasis, atopic dermatitus, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, scleroderma and systemic lupus erythematosus.
