  • Publication number: 20210113500
    Abstract: NSC antagonists are disclosed as useful in the treatment of dementia, in delaying the onset of dementia, and in the prevention of dementia. Dementia so treated may be, for example, Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

Pharmaceutical compositions, dosage forms, and methods for using the same are disclosed, which include NSC antagonists, NSC antagonists combined with dementia drugs, NSC antagonists combined with glucose-level stabilizing or enhancing drugs, or combinations of these. Dosage forms may be designed to provide stable plasma levels for extended periods of time.

  • Publication number: 20070259026
    Abstract: The present invention is drawn to adhesive dressings and associated systems and methods for use in reducing the occurrence of phlebitis and extending the lifespan of intravenous catheters. The adhesive dressings can include a backing layer, and a nitroglycerin-containing composition supported at least in part by the backing layer. The adhesive dressing can have a drug delivery zone defined by the area where the nitroglycerin-containing composition contacts an intact human skin site. The drug delivery zone can have an area of at least 2.5 cm2 and can be configured such that when the adhesive dressing is applied to secure an intravenous catheter the drug delivery zone substantially overlays a vessel in which the intravenous catheter is inserted. The nitroglycerin-containing composition can be formulated to deliver nitroglycerin at from about 5 ?g/hour to about 80 ?g/hour.

  • Publication number: 20070202155
    Abstract: The present invention is drawn to a transdermal patch for the delivery of a nitroglycerin or other NO donor. The patch can comprise a backing layer, and a nitroglycerin-containing composition or other NO donor-containing composition which is supported at least in part by the backing layer. The transdermal patch can have a drug delivery zone defined by the area where the composition contacts an intact human skin site, and the transdermal patch can be formulated to deliver a nitric oxide donor, such as nitroglycerin, at from about 5 ?g/hour to about 70 ?g/hour. In one embodiment, the transdermal patch can provide a delivery rate at the drug delivery zone of from about 1 ?g/cm2/day to about 600 ?g/cm2/day. In another embodiment, the transdermal patch can contain from 6 wt % to 18 wt % of the nitric oxide donor, e.g., nitroglycerin. In each embodiment, the patch can contain at least 450 ?g/cm2 of nitroglycerin.

  • Publication number: 20070059351
    Abstract: The present invention is drawn to a transdermal patch for the delivery of a nitric oxide-donor and a second active agent. The patch can comprise a backing layer and an active agent-containing composition which is supported at least in part by the backing layer. The active agent-containing composition can include an amount of a nitric oxide-donor and an amount of a second active agent. The transdermal patch can have a drug delivery zone defined by the area where the composition contacts an intact human skin site, and the transdermal patch can be formulated to deliver a nitric oxide donor, such as nitroglycerin, at from about 5 ?g/hour to about 85 ?g/hour. The second active agent can be selected from a number of agents including NSAIDS, opioids, local anesthetics, menthol, salicylic acid, salicylic acid derivatives, vanilloid receptor-1 activators, corticosteroids, vasoconstrictors, and combinations thereof.

  • Publication number: 20070053966
    Abstract: A system and method for treating damaged musculoskeletal tissue includes an orthopedic support structure and a nitroglycerin-containing composition. The orthopedic support structure provides mechanical support to the damaged tissue and maintains the nitroglycerin-containing composition in contact with the skin of a subject wearing using the system. The nitroglycerin-containing composition can be integrated into the orthopedic support structure or the support structure can be configured to contain removable doses of the nitroglycerin-containing composition. The system and method provides relief of pain and improved function of the musculoskeletal tissue.
