  • Publication number: 20200330441
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a pediatric oral suspension composition containing amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium where the clavulanate potassium is present in an amount equal to or less than about 21.5 mg/5 mL, and a method of treating bacterial infections by providing between about one to about fourteen dosage days of the composition. Also disclosed are methods of treating a patient comprising administering amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium to the patient in dosages of at least about 80 mg/kg/day of the amoxicillin and from about 1.66 mg/kg/day to about 2.84 mg/kg/day of the clavulanate potassium. The methods are useful for treating pediatric otitis media, treating a drug resistant bacterial infection, or treating beta-lactamase producing Haemophilus influenzae or Moraxella catarrhalis in a patient under 24 months of age.

  • Publication number: 20030210862
    Abstract: A MUX, DEMUX or integrated combination MUX/DEMUX utilizing a discrete dispersion device (herein referred to as “D3” device), which includes at least one input port, at least one output port and an optical planar waveguide comprising a synergetic photonic bandgap quasi-crystal (“PBQC”) for guiding and supporting optical signals in a work bandwidth. The D3 device achieves a flat-top response for each channel, high channel isolation and background noise suppression.

  • Publication number: 20030206681
    Abstract: The present invention provides a photonic multi-bandgap structure, herein also referred to as photonic bandgap quasi-crystal (“PBQC”), that can direct light, having wavelength components within a selected passband (&Dgr;&lgr;), from an input port, to a predefined output port, while providing an integrating element for Planar Lightwave Circuits. A photonic bandgap quasi-crystal of the invention combines in a planar waveguide spectrally selective properties of gratings, focusing properties of elliptical mirrors, superposition properties of thick holograms, photonic bandgaps of periodic structures, and flexibility of binary lithography. A photonic structure of the invention can be utilized, for example, as an integrating spectrally sensitive element in a variety of optical devices that can include, but are not limited to, optical switches, optical multiplexer/demultiplexers, multi-wavelength lasers, and channel monitors in Wavelength Division Mulitplexing (WDM) telecommunications system.
