Abstract: A method administers quaternary ammonium anti-cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonists in combination with acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors to treat either cognitive impairment or acute delirium. This therapy results in a modification of a cognitive disorder or disease, namely a slow down in the disease progression. In one preferred embodiment, the disease is dementia with Lewy Bodies. New formulations for quaternary ammonium anti-cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonists are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention includes a method for improving cognitive function in a human suffering from a neurodegenerative cognitive disorder. The method comprises administering to a patient a total daily dose of a cholinesterase inhibitor and a quaternary ammonium antimuscarinic compound. The total daily dose is divided into one or more doses administered before food intake. The quaternary ammonium antimuscarinic compound is administered in a first drug delivery element configured for rapid absorption into a body of the patient, and the cholinesterase inhibitor is administered in a second drug delivery element configured for a slower or delayed absorption into the body of the patient.

Abstract: Novel glycopyrronium fatty acid salts have been developed. Bi-phasic reaction conditions enable the desired counterion exchange reactions between glycopyrronium bromide and fatty acid salts of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals in methods to form glycopyrronium fatty acid salts. In preferred embodiments, an excess of the free fatty acid in the reaction mixture stabilizes the glycopyrronium fatty acid salt and reduces the formation of the impurity, Acid A. In some preferred embodiments, between 0.2 and 1.2 molar equivalent of excess free fatty acid is added to the reaction mixture. In another embodiment, approximately 1.2 molar equivalent of excess free fatty acid is added to the reaction mixture.

Abstract: A modular traffic cone assembled from a flat sheet and a dish that stores in a minimum of space. In one embodiment, translucent traffic cone has enhanced visibility through a light seated on a platform inside the translucent cone. In one embodiment, the modular traffic cone is included in a traffic directing kit comprising a translucent flat sheet, a dish and a platform, the sheet, the dish and the platform forming the traffic cone. The kit may also include ballast and the light for seating inside the traffic cone. A method of assembly for the traffic cone and the kit is disclosed.

Abstract: A method for treating the adverse effects of acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors used in the treatment of cognitive disorders such as acute delirium and cognitive impairment in elderly human patients. The administration of a clinically effective amount of a quaternary ammonium anti-cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonist having very low lipid solubility substantially eliminates the adverse effects of urinary and/or fecal incontinence, nausea, bradycardia, bronchorrhea or brochospasm caused by the acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors, without affecting the beneficial activity of the acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors. This permits the administration of the optimum effective dosing of acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors to provide maximum benefit to the patient with the added benefit of reducing or eliminating the unwanted side effects of fecal and urinary incontinence.
