Abstract: The invention relates to a package for a pharmaceutical product, particularly a tube or a dropper bottle assembly used to dispense liquids, aerosols or strings, and a method of sterilizing said package,

Abstract: The present invention relates in particular to a drug delivery system comprising a cyclofructan, a drug and a polymeric carrier.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel materials, particularly biomaterials, in form of a precipitate, comprising at least an anonic polymeric component which is as such soluble in water and an amphiphilic ammonium-type component, which precipitate is obtainable by a process including the following steps: contacting the anionic polymeric component and an cylcodextrin component in an aqueous medium, and adding to the mixture obtained in step 1 said amphiphilic ammonium-type component, wherein said component are present in amounts effective to form said precipitate, and preferably to corresponding precipitates additionally comprising said cycxlodextrin component. Both types of precipitates may optionally comprise one or more further components. The precipitates are particularly useful as controlled-release depot formulations suitable for long-lasting delivery of said further components.
