  • Dosing method of administering medicaments via inhalation administration or skin administration
    Patent number: 6140323
    Abstract: A method of therapeutically administering certain medicaments in order to maximize the desired effects and minimize the unwanted metabolite effects on the human body, including the central nervous system, in order to maximize therapeutic effects, such as anti-anxiety, anticonvulsant and hypnotic effects, and minimize unwanted side effects, such as ataxic and incoordination effects, of the medicament. Also, a method of inhalation administration or skin administration of certain medicaments in order to decrease metabolism of the medicaments to unwanted metabolites.

  • Self-powered implanted programmable medication system and method
    Patent number: 4146029
    Abstract: A device and method for dispensing medication internally of the body utilize an implanted system which includes medication storage and dispensing control circuitry having control components which may be modified by means external of the body being treated to control the manner of dispensing the medication within such body. Coordinated pacemaking is also available.

    Inventor: Everett H. Ellinwood, Jr.
  • Apparatus and method for implanted self-powered medication dispensing
    Patent number: 4003379
    Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing drugs and other medications within the body leaves the patient ambulatory and is adapted to be entirely implanted and to dispense such substances over a long period of time, e.g., one to several years, in accordance with the actual needs of the patient. A self-powered dispensing device stores a single or plural substances in powdered, liquid, or other dispensable form and utilizes a compressible container, i.e., a bellows, for withdrawing such substances from storage and dispensing to the body. The dispensing operation may be on a fixed schedule or may be controlled by monitoring single or plural sensors implanted in the body and evaluating the sensed data in order to control both the conditions under which and the kind of dispensing which takes place. Dual dispensers and dual medication may be employed.
