Abstract: The present invention provides a composition (e.g., a pharmaceutical composition) comprising at least one delivery agent compound and glucagon. Preferably, the composition includes a therapeutically effective amount of glucagon and the delivery agent compound. The composition of the present invention facilitates the delivery of glucagon and increases its bioavailability compared to administration without the delivery agent compound.

Abstract: Methods for treating impaired glucose tolerance and early and late stage diabetes in mammals, for prophylactically sparing ?-cell function, aiding in preventing ?-cell death, preventing the onset of overt diabetes in a mammal with type 2 diabetes, treating the current level of glycemic control dysfunction of a mammal with impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes, comprising orally administering insulin and a delivery agent that facilitates insulin absorption from the gastrointestinal tract at the time of or shortly before mealtime, e.g., within about 10 minutes prior to ingestion of a meal, on a chronic basis. The methods also comprise, in addition to administering a rapid-acting insulin to provide a first insulin peak, administering a slow acting insulin to provide a second insulin peak occurring at a later time but of a longer duration.

Abstract: An allergy skin test device is disclosed that causes less pain than commonly used devices that include multi-point sharp puncture heads. The allergy skin test device incorporates multiple dull pressure heads distributed amongst the sharp multi-point sharp puncture heads, each dull pressure head activating a neurological pain gate that reduces pain sensation typically caused by the neighboring multi-point head when it engages the skin.
