Abstract: Sterile pharmaceutical stable autoclaved clear aqueous compositions of propofol (2,6-Diisopropyl phenol) suitable for parenteral administration are described. The compositions essentially consist of a complex of propofol with 2-hydroxypropyl-?-cyclodextrin in a weight ratio of 1:30–1:60. This complex of propofol with 2-hydroxypropyl-?-cyclodextrin produces a clear aqueous composition that is stable to autoclaving. The composition is effective as an anaesthetic agent. The process of making these synergistic compositions has been described.

Abstract: Parenteral compositions of oil-coated-Amphotericin B in structured-emulsion form, having LD50 of at least 400 mg/kg in mice and process for making the same have been described. The process essentially requires dispersing Amphotericin B in oily vehicle and dispersing emulsifier in the aqueous phase. The process of present invention is simple, cost effective and gives a stable product suitable for parenteral administration. Amphotericin B emulsion compositions prepared by the process of the present invention may be administered to human beings and animals for the treatment of fungal infections, with substantially equivalent or greater efficacy and low drug toxicity as compared to the conventional composition containing Amphotericin B and sodium desoxycholate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a stable clear sterile aqueous composition of Propofol suitable for parenteral administration and a process for making the same. The composition comprises Propofol, TPGS and water. The composition of present invention gives clear product suitable for parenteral administration overcoming the disadvantages of emulsion formulation. The ratio of propofol to TPGS is at least 1:10 (by wt.) and the content of TPGS is from 1 to 20% w/v in the composition. The composition is rendered sterile by end autoclaving.

Abstract: Sterile pharmaceutical stable autoclaved clear aqueous compositions of propofol (2,6-Diisopropyl phenol) suitable for parenteral administration are described. The compositions essentially consist of a complex of propofol with 2-hydroxypropyl-&bgr;-cyclodextrin in a weight ratio of 1:30-1:60. This complex of propofol with 2-hydroxypropyl-&bgr;-cyclodextrin produces a clear aqueous composition that is stable to autoclaving. The composition is effective as an anaesthetic agent. The process of making these synergistic compositions has been described.

Abstract: A sterile pharmaceutical cisplatin composition as an oil-in-water emulsion having low toxicity for parenteral administration comprising: a) an oily phase selected from the group consisting of: vegetable oils, esters of medium or long chain fatty acids, and fractionated or modified oils; b) cisplatin incorporated in the oily phase; c) an emulsifier selected from the group consisting of: natural phosphatides; modified phosphatides, and synthetic non-ionic surfactants; d) a tonicity modifying agent selected from the group of compounds consisting of: glycerin, mannitol, and dextrose; e) a chelating agent selected from the group of compounds consisting of: edetates, and desferrioxamine mesylate; and f) water.
