  • Publication number: 20220266005
    Abstract: An iontophoresis system for positioning against skin of a subject is disclosed. The iontophoresis system can comprise at least one vessel having a solvent therein. An anode apparatus can couple to the at least one vessel. The anode apparatus can comprise a first reservoir configured to receive the solvent from the at least one vessel so that, when received into the first reservoir, the solvent makes contact with the skin of the subject, and a first electrode positioned above the first reservoir. A cathode apparatus can couple to the at least one vessel. The cathode apparatus can comprise a second reservoir configured to receive the solvent from the at least one vessel so that, when received into the first reservoir, the solvent makes contact with the skin of the subject, and a second electrode positioned above the second reservoir.

  • Publication number: 20190029989
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for on-going bowel care for persons with chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction. The compositions and methods can be administered in a non-clinical setting. The compositions comprise acetylcholinesterase inhibitors for stimulating motility of the bowel in combination with anti-cholinergic agents to counteract the potentially dangerous cardiac side effects of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. In some examples, the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, neostigmine, and the anti-cholinergic agent, glycopyrrolate, are combined in a pharmaceutical composition. Certain examples also provide the frequency and duration of administration of the disclosed drug combinations.
