A composition for managing the weight of a subject, wherein the composition includes at least one high-viscosity, resorbable, biocompatible material, intended to be injected into the submucosal space of the digestive tract of a subject and thus creating a long-lasting raising of the corresponding mucosa is disclosed. Also disclosed is a kit including a composition according to the invention and structure for injecting the composition. Finally, the disclosure also relates to the use of a composition according to the invention for managing the weight of a subject.

Provided herein are methods and compositions for neuroprotection. The neuroprotective composition can be or include cannabinol or a derivative thereof. The neuroprotective composition can be used in the treatment of a neurodegenerative disease. The neuroprotective composition can be used to protect retinal neurons from degeneration in a subject in need thereof, such as for treatment of glaucoma.

Disclosed are formulations comprising niclosamide. The formulations disclosed may be used as a unisex and hormone-free on-demand contraceptive.

An anti-aggregation agent of the present invention contains, as an anti-aggregation ingredient, at least one selected from the group consisting of polyoxyethylene cetyl ether, polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene glycols having an average molecular weight of 3000 to 13000 and combinations thereof. According to the present invention, in a container whose inner wall is treated with silicone oil, aggregation of a poorly water-soluble drug caused by the silicone oil can be prevented.
