  • Patent number: 7462362
    Abstract: A dual action antifungal nail coat composition and method of use for ameliorating or preventing fungal infection of the nails, and onychomycosis, in particular, is disclosed. Composition embodiments in the form of one-coat type and two-coat type suitable for daily fungicidal regimens are disclosed. A preferred antifungal nail coat composition comprises an effective fungicidal amount of antifungal agent, a permeation enhancing amount of a substantially non-volatile, permeation enhancer, a film-forming amount of a hydrophilic polymer, and a pharmaceutically acceptable, volatile carrier. The composition provides a substantially water-soluble fungicidal coating on contacting a fungally susceptible or infected nail.

  • Patent number: 6841574
    Abstract: Compounds of prostaglandin E group (PGE compounds) are stabilized as non-aqueous compositions that include the compound together with a bulking agent that can be a non-aqueous liquid or a solid in a sheet, film or powder form. The composition can optionally include a skin penetration enhancer. A non-aqueous, solid dosage form comprises a PGE compound substantially uniformly distributed in a carrier sheet or film.

  • Publication number: 20040241243
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for promoting the recovery of vascular function in erectile dysfunction associated with vasculopathy by administering a composition comprising a vasoactive prostaglandin and a biocompatible polymer. In preferred embodiments, the prostaglandin composition is a topical composition comprising prostaglandin E1, a biocompatible polymer and a penetration enhancer and the topical composition is applied to the meatus at the tip of the penis. In another embodiment, the invention provides a method for increasing microvascular outgrowth at a targeted arterial segment comprising administering a prostaglandin E1 composition to produce an extracellular prostaglandin E1 concentration of about 1 micromolar to about 10 micromolar adjacent to the targeted arterial segment for about four days.

  • Patent number: 6594527
    Abstract: An electrical stimulation apparatus and method for providing electrical stimulation to tissue. The electrical stimulation apparatus includes a base unit and an electrode module. The base unit is configured to be hand portable and contains a first electrical circuit and a first battery for supplying electrical energy to the first electrical circuit. A second electrical circuit and a second battery provide a time/date function. The base unit supports an LCD to provide a visual indication of the various functions of the electrical stimulation apparatus. The electrode module is programmable to enable the prescribing physician to set the treatment protocol for the electrical stimulation apparatus. The present apparatus is particularly well suited for the treatment of herpes simplex and herpes zoster.
