A method for treating mucous membrane inflammation in a patient is provided. The method includes administering an effective amount of a composition containing sodium salts to the patient. Preferably, the composition contains a sodium concentration of less than or equal to 125 mM, and contains sodium hypochlorite and a sodium salt of N-chlorotaurine.

The present disclosure pertains to a composition for preventing or treating oral diseases. A composition for preventing or treating oral diseases according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can not only effectively prevent or treat tooth decay or periodontitis by inhibiting bacterial activity in the oral cavity but can also be used for a long period of time due to being non-toxic to human, and can be used in various formulations, such as oral tablets, toothpastes, gargles, and oral patches.

A nutritional product for improving performance during physical activity and a method of using the nutritional product to improve performance during activity. The nutritional product contains Rhodiola root extract, French pine extract, Pulsatilla vulgaris extract, ginger extract, yohimbe extract, Ginseng extract, Coleus forskohlii extract, vitamin B12, red beet extract, L-Arginine NO3, tongkat ali, a combination of Fenugreek fenugreek A and Fenugreek fenugreek B, and Tribulus terrestris extract. Also described are methods for improving a user's physical activity performance employing the nutritional products.

The present invention relates to the uses of the protein PRG4 and therapeutic modulation thereof. In particular, the present invention relates compositions and methods utilizing PRG4 and therapeutic modulation thereof, including, use as a surgical lubricant, use in a treatment for prevention or reduction of post-surgical adhesions, use in a treatment for oral ulcerations, use as an athletic lubricating patch, use as a dermal filler, use in a treatment for dry mouth, use in a drug delivery method or composition, and use in nursing lubrication.

A composition for mixing with water for use as an oral rinse, comprising monobasic sodium phosphate, dibasic sodium phosphate, sodium chloride, and calcium chloride.

Compositions comprising serine and an organic mono- or multi-phosphate salt and methods of using such compositions to treat and/or prevent periodontal disease and/or dental calculus are provided.

A liquid crystal composition contains liquid crystals containing one kind of or two or more kinds of silicone surfactants, a phenyl-modified silicone oil and water. The liquid crystal composition of the present invention contains 5 to 95% by weight in total of one kind of or two or more kinds of silicone surfactants, 0.1 to 90% by weight of a phenyl-modified silicone oil and 0.1 to 90% by weight of water. The liquid crystal composition of the present invention can solubilize hydrophobic compounds having poor solubility (for example, hydrocarbon oils such as squalane, fatty acids such as oleic acid and lipoic acid and ester oils such as cetyl isooctanoate) and is thus useful, for example, as toiletry materials and cosmetic materials.

The present invention relates to compositions forming a low viscosity mixture of: a) at least one diacyl glycerol; b) at least one phosphatidyl choline; c) at least one oxygen containing organic solvent; d) at least one GnRH analog; Wherein the pre-formulation forms, or is capable of forming, at least one liquid crystalline phase structure upon contact with an aqueous fluid. The invention further relates to methods of treatment comprising administration of such compositions, pre-filled administration devices and kits containing the formulations.

The present invention relates to a controlled release device for oral cavity, which is attached on a hard dental surface of a tooth. The attachment is done using any adhesive layer that can attach on enamel surface of a tooth or using a holder attached to the hard dental surface, to which holder the device can be attached, clipped or fastened. The device comprises of two or more polymeric materials forming a polymer matrix or matrices. The polymer matrices incorporate one or more agent(s), which release rate in the oral cavity can be con-trolled with the polymeric materials in the matrices. The invention also relates to a method producing a controlled re-lease device for delivering an agent to the oral cavity.

The present invention generally relates to controlled release of tetracycline antibiotics. Specifically, it relates to a complex comprising a tetracycline compound (TC) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate or solvate thereof and a divalent metal carboxylate; a pharmaceutical preparation comprising the complex, methods for manufacturing the complex and the pharmaceutical preparation, and a complex or a pharmaceutical preparation for use in a method for treatment of the human or animal body, in particular for therapy and/or prophylaxis of a bacterial infection; and/or wherein antibiotic activity is maintained over a prolonged period of time; and/or for the therapy and/or prophylaxis of an acute, chronic or recurrent periodontal disease.
