Abstract: The present invention relates to polymers comprising monomer units derived from captopril, and their use in the treatment or prevention of collagen deposition, fibrosis, scars, burns, or unwanted tissue formation. The present invention further relates to processes for the preparation of said polymers and to pharmaceutical compositions and medical products comprising the polymers. Also encompassed by the present invention are polymers comprising monomer units derived from other ACE inhibitors such as zofenopril, alacepril, rentiapril or pivalopril, or from vasopeptidase inhibitors such as fasidotrilat, omapatrilat or ilepatril.

Abstract: An analgesic composition in parenteral unit dosage form or in a unit dosage form suitable for delivery via the mucosa comprising an amount of buprenorphine which is less than the clinical dose required to achieve pain relief and an amount of naloxone such that the ratio by weight of buprenorphine to naloxone is in the range of from 12.5:1 to 27.5:1, or an amount of naltrexone or nalmefene such that the ratio by weight of buprenorphine to naltrexone or nalmefene is in the range of from 12.5:1 to 22.5:1. The analgesic action of the buprenorphine is potentiated by the low dose of naloxone, naltrexone or nalmefene.
