Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition for topical administration, including, as the pharmaceutically active component, at least 5% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition of a piperidinopyrimidine derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; an acid in an amount to completely solubilise the piperidinopyrimidine derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; a solvent composition including at least two of water, a lower alcohol and a co-solvent selected from one or more of the group consisting of aromatic and polyhydric alcohols; wherein when the co-solvent includes propylene glycol, it is present in an amount of less than approximately 10% by weight.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical product containing pamidronate and other diphosphonate solutions in an appropriate container, a pH of between 5 and 8 and without organic acid buffer or polyethylen glycol. The container may be treated glass or made of other appropriate material. Coated elastomeric stoppers are also included. A method of producing a pharmaceutical product comprising steps of making a suspension of pamadronic acid, adding sodium hydroxide, to form a solution adjusting the pH to between 5 and 8 and transferring the solution to a container.

Abstract: A stable injectable solution containing pamidronate and a method for preparing a therapeutic aqueous disodium pamidronate solution. The method comprises preparing a slurry of pamidronic acid in water, combining aqueous sodium hydroxide with the slurry in an amount about 2:1 molar ratio of sodium hydroxide to pamidronic acid to yield a solution of disodium pamidronate having visual clarity and a pH of about 6.5, and packaging the solution in sealed containers. A unit dosage form including the solution and a vial or ampule comprising the unit dosage form are also described.
