COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR THE TOPICAL ADMINISTRATION OF SPIRONOLACTONE FOR THE TREATMENT OF CUTANEOUS SIGNS OF EXCESS ANDROGEN AND CHRONIC STRESS RESPONSE
The present disclosure provides methods for treating or alleviating symptoms of a disease, disorder, or condition related to excess androgen or stress-induced skin changes in a subject in need thereof by topically administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically effective amount of spironolactone to the subject. Other aspects relate to methods for providing anti-oxidative stress, anti-inflammatory and anti-aging benefits for the skin to a subject in need thereof by topically administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically effective amount of spironolactone to the subject. Surprisingly, it has been found that spironolactone may be topically administered with reduced adverse effect compared to systemic administration of the same medication.
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS OF SPIRONOLACTONE FOR DEEP DERMAL DRUG DELIVERY
Pharmaceutical compositions for the topical administration of spironolactone to the pilosebaceous unit and methods for administering the same. The pharmaceutical compositions comprise aqueous suspensions of submicron particles of spironolactone in water.

Use of spironolactone-based composition that exhibits an inhibitory action on T-lymphocyte activation which is useful for preventing and/or treating multiple sclerosis
The present invention relates to the use of spironolactone for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition intended for preventing and/or treating multiple sclerosis. Alternatively, the invention relates to the use of spironolactone directly in T-lymphocytes or dendritic cells obtained from a blood sample taken from a patient and then injected back into the circulation. Therefore, the present invention relates to the use of a composition comprising spironolactone that can be used in the treatment of multiple sclerosis, which covers the administration of spironolactone directly or lymphocytes pre-treated with spironolactone, or dendritic cells to individuals requiring such treatment. Spironolactone is an orally administered drug that is less expensive than many of the treatments available for MS and, furthermore, has the advantage of being a known compound already used in humans for extended periods and therefore the adverse effects thereof have been described in clinical studies.
