  • Publication number: 20060263304
    Abstract: A method for controlling or reversing the alcohol intake in the non-alcohol dependent individual both before or during their alcohol imbibing. This is accomplished by self-administering a spray directed into sensitive mucosal vein endings of the individual. There are at least three technologies to accomplish the above noted task. The first one is a nasal spray which is directed into the nasal passage. The second spray is directed into the mouth of the individual so that the medication can be absorbed by the buccal mucosal membrane in the mouth of the individual. The third medicated spray technology is pulmonary inhaler aerosolization which is absorbed in the tissues of the lung. All of the above noted sprays by-pass the liver and the intestines. The medication, Flumazenil, is the medication used in any of these sprays to accomplish the desired effect.
