Abstract: A method of treating chemical-induced lung injury in a subject in need thereof includes administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of ibudilast, or a pharmaceutical salt thereof.

Abstract: A injectable pharmaceutical compositions consists of a buffered aqueous solution comprising (a) about 5% w/v to about 15% w/v sulfobutylether-?-cyclodextrin (SBE-?-CD), and about 0.05% w/v to about 0.5% w/v ibudilast, or (b) about 5% w/v to about 25% w/v polyoxyl castor oil, and about 1% w/v to about 5% w/v ibudilast.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to ibudilast higher dosage oral formulations, such as tablet or capsule formulations, and the corresponding methods of treatment.

Abstract: Disclosed is nucleic acid preserving compositions and methods of manufacturing and using the same. Compositions include a carrier, a chaotropic agent, a buffering agent, a chelating agent, a surfactant, an alcohol, an acid, and a mucolytic agent. Compositions as aqueous solutions can include water as a carrier. Preferred embodiments include water, guanidine thiocyanate, Tris, EDTA, SLS, SDA 3C, HCl, and N-acetyl-L-cysteine. Some embodiments include a colored dye as a visual indicator. Methods of manufacturing include combining the components into a mixture, such as an aqueous solution. Methods of use include providing a biological sample that includes nucleic acid and contacting the biological sample with the composition. Kits include the composition disposed in a portion of a biological sample collection apparatus.
