wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, L, V, W, and Q are as defined herein, X, Y, and Z each independently represent CR.sup.8 or a nitrogen atom, wherein X, Y, and Z are not simultaneously CR.sup.8, and R.sup.8 is as defined herein.

Compositions, methods, and systems are provided for pulmonary delivery of active agents via a metered dose inhaler. In some embodiments, the compositions comprise an HFO-1234ze(E) suspension medium, active agent particles, and suspending particles. The active agent particles may comprise one, two, three or four active agent(s) selected from a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), a long-acting β2-agonists (LABA), a short-acting beta-agonists (SABA), an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS), and a non-corticosteroid anti-inflammatory agent.

The present invention relates to a nanoparticle or nanoformulation comprising two or more bioactive phytochemicals from turmeric. The nanoparticle or nanoformulation preferably comprises curcumin or curcuminoids and water-soluble peptides comprising turmerin. The waster-soluble peptides comprising turmerin are preferably present in a water-soluble extract of turmeric which comprises turmerin. Methods for producing the nanoparticle or nanoformulation are also disclosed.

A mixture for enhancing eye lubrication comprises a plurality of microspheres having diameters ranging from about 5-40 microns combined with an aqueous component comprising water. The microspheres can be coated with oil. When the mixture is applied to the surface of a user's eyes, the microparticles will enhance lubrication during blinking and partially lift eyelids so that other components of the mixture can be better distributed beneath the eyelids. An oil can be added to the mixture. Preferably the oil is configured so that, when the mixture is agitated, it forms a temporary, thermodynamically unstable emulsion from which the oil quickly disassociates when the mixture is applied to the eye. The oil thus is quickly available to enhance lubrication performance.
