COMPOSITION OF DIBLOCK AND TRIBLOCK COPOLYMERS AND THE USE THEREOF IN THE PREVENTION OF TISSUE ADHESIONS
Disclosed is a composition based on copolymers including at least one A-B block copolymer, wherein block A is a polyester and block B is a polyoxyethylene (PEG), and wherein the total molecular mass in weight of the PEG is higher than or equal to 50 kDa, and the ethylene oxide motif/ester motif molar ratio is between 0.5 and 5. The invention also relates to an anti-adhesive material including such a composition, used for the prevention of tissue adhesions and especially for the prevention of intrauterine synechiae.

Oral medicament comprising an osmotic laxative incorporated into a matrix based on plant fats with reduced doses of macrogol
Oral medicament comprising an osmotic laxative incorporated into a matrix based on plant fats. The present invention relates to an oral pharmaceutical composition comprising: between 30 and 55% by weight of said pharmaceutical composition of micronized anhydrous macrogol; and between 45 and 70% by weight of the pharmaceutical composition of a carrier consisting of an anhydrous hydrophobic lipid coating based on fatty compounds of plant origin, having a melting point of between 36 and 38° C., and to the use thereof as laxative. Said composition enables the reduction in the daily dosage of macrogol by preserving the osmotic pressure thereof as far as the colon, the site of therapeutic action of osmotic laxatives; said carrier protects the macrogol from a reduction, due to the moisture in the digestive tract, in the osmotic pressure.
Topical composition for the treatment of mucosal lesions
It relates to a topical composition comprising specific amounts of: a) a hyaluronic acid or a pharmaceutically or veterinary acceptable salt thereof, b) one or more adhesive agents, and c) a non-absorbable antibiotic; to delivery devices comprising it; and to its uses in medicine, in particular, in the treatment and/or prevention of mucosal lesions; in the prevention of postpolypectomy syndrome; as adjuvant therapy to mechanical treatments in gastrointestinal perforations, and as sealant treatment in surgical anastomoses and leaks or fistulas in gastrointestinal tract.
