Film forming gel compositions, useful in creating conformable and flexible gel bandages, can be formulate from a film-forming polymer, a tackifier, and a volatile solvent. The film forming gels can also include antiseptics, cationic polymer coagulants, fillers, and other additives. The gel compositions form relatively thick films when dried on tissue, and can exhibit enhanced breathability to promote wound healing.

It is disclosed a pharmaceutical and/or phytosanitary composition comprising an aqueous extract of Chelidonium majus root and an acceptable pharmaceutical or phytosanitary excipient for the prevention or treatment of nail infections. The composition may further comprise an aqueous extract of Thuja occidentalis leaf; and from about 1 to 5% of at least one natural phenolic compound. The composition is efficient in the treatment of plant infection (mildew fungus, blight fungus, etc); the treatment of intumescence of a plant; the treatment of potatoes (powdery or common scab, Rhizoctonia, etc), and also allows a higher crop yield: without the use of a chemical fungicide. The composition also allows rapid treatment of fungus infection of nails.

The current invention is based on the determination that a S1P receptor modulator compound of formula (I):

##STR00001##

decreases the heart rate of a subject to which it is administered by about 5 beats/min or less daily, or about 4 beats/min or less daily, or about 3 beats/min or less daily, or about 2 beats/min or less daily, wherein the S1P receptor modulator is administered at an initial daily dosage which is substantially the same as the standard daily therapeutic dosage.

The invention relates to a sprayable liquid solution for the local delivery of lidocaine to the epidermis (skin), gingiva, oral mucosa or mucosal lining of the pharynx, and to a method of providing local anesthesia by administering this composition. The solution comprises at least 40% w/w lidocaine, or about 2% to about 50% w/w/ lidocaine.

The present invention relates to methods and compositions for the delivery of cosmetics and medicants. In some embodiments, the invention relates to compositions comprising both hydrophobic and hydrophilic polymers. In preferred embodiments, the invention relates to the delivery of peptides, small molecules and other bioactive compounds using the compositions and methods disclosed herein.

A bioactive suspension derived from freshly disaggregated tissue is provided, as well as related methods of formulation and use. The bioactive suspension may comprise a cell-free supernate derived from epidermal and dermal tissue that has been enzymatically and mechanically disaggregated, then separated, and which may contain tissue regeneration factors known to speed healing. The bioactive suspension may further comprise genetically-modified treatment cells, wild type cells, or both, and may be combined with one or more scaffolding elements to form a bioactive suspension combination product suitable for treatment of a cutaneous defect. Synthetic bioactive suspensions and bioactive suspension combination products are also provided.

The present invention relates to a water resistant wound cover with high comfort and good air permeability. In particular, the present invention relates to an aqueous wound healing formulation comprising a water-soluble or a water-dispersible polymeric material that does not sting when applied to a minor injury to the skin.

A system and method for a salve, spray, and tincture that help with rheumatism, arthritis, gout, and any other inflammation in joints or muscles whereby decarboxylation helps activate the herbs to help with how fast the relief works, while being infused in coconut oil, whereby the spray has wheatgerm oil for pain and safflower oil and eves primrose oil helps dissolve lactic and uric acid build up in joints that cause arthritis and the tincture whereby the tincture is created from the remaining herbs in the creation of the salve and sat in Everclear.

The present invention provides thin-film forming compositions comprising an antiseptic (e.g., povidone iodine, chlorhexidine, or octenidine), a non-aqueous solvent, and a film-forming material dissolved in the non-aqueous solvent, wherein the composition yields a continuous and flexible protective film upon substantial removal of the solvent. The compositions are useful for the treatment and prevention of infections in wounds, ulcers (e.g., decubitus ulcers and stasis ulcers), cuts, or burns, or against infections from bacterial, mycobacterial, viral, fungal, or amoeba causes, as well as for prevention of such infections in appropriate clinical settings (e.g., as liquid bandages or dressings). Additionally, the compositions of this invention are also useful for the treatment of infections and as a disinfectant skin preparation for pre- and/or post-surgical operations.

Provided herein are in vivo gelling ophthalmic pre-formulations forming a biocompatible retinal patch comprising at least one nucleophilic compound or monomer unit, at least one electrophilic compound or monomer unit, and optionally a therapeutic agent and/or viscosity enhancer. In some embodiments, the retinal patch at least partially adheres to the site of a retinal tear. Also provided herein are methods of treating retinal detachment by delivering an in vivo gelling ophthalmic pre-formulation to the site of a retinal tear in human eye, wherein the in vivo gelling ophthalmic pre-formulation forms a retinal patch.
