Oral formulations for promoting eye health, and in particular for preventing or treating macular degeneration, are disclosed, containing zeaxanthin, a carotenoid pigment, and at least two or more additional ocular-active nutrients selected from lipoic acid, omega-3 fatty acids, plant-derived compounds such as flavonoids, anthocyanins, or polyphenolics, taurine, carnitine, Coenzyme-Q10, carnosine, and nutrients that stimulate the production of glutathione. Processes are disclosed for identifying ocular-active nutrients that will interact in a synergistic and potentiating manner with zeaxanthin, to provide better and more effective protection, for eye health, than can be provided by zeaxanthin alone. Additional optional agents include zinc, vitamin E, and vitamin C.

Provided herein is a topical combination composition comprising tapinarof, a PDE4 inhibitor and optionally at least one additional active agent selected from a retinoid, benzoyl peroxide (BPO), a Janus kinase inhibitor (JAK inhibitor), a corticosteroid of potency class 1-4, an acaricide and combinations thereof. The active agents in the composition of this invention are in encapsulated or non-encapsulated form, according to need. The above compositions are useful for the treatment, prevention or alleviation of a skin disorder selected from psoriasis, dermatitis, acne, rosacea, ichthyosis, scaling skin, imbalance of skin barrier and tinea and exhibit synergistic and/or additive effects allowing to reduce the active agents amounts in the combination compositions.

The invention discloses a cannabinoid nano-micelle preparation and a preparation method thereof. The cannabinoid nano-micelle preparation includes cannabinoid and an amphiphilic polymer, wherein the content of the cannabinoid is 1-40% by weight, the content of the amphiphilic polymer is 1-99%, and the preparation method includes the following steps: (1) preparing a cannabinoid nano-micelle solution from cannabinoid and an amphiphilic polymer; (2) drying the micellar solution obtained in the step (1) to obtain cannabinoid nano-micelle powder; and (3) preparing the cannabinoid nano-micelle powder obtained in the step (2) into the cannabinoid nano-micelle preparation. The cannabinoid nano-micelle preparation is high in effective component wrapping rate and transfer rate, high in drug loading capacity and high in stability, and a novel normal-temperature self-assembly technology is adopted, so that an active component cannabinoid is prevented from being degraded and discolored at high temperature; the bioavailability of the active ingredient is high, and a single dose can be reduced. Especially, a dry powder inhalant is high in in-vitro deposition rate and quick in inhalation effect, and can provide continuous and stable blood concentration.
