The present invention relates to a golf ball-like microparticles obtained by atomization of nanosuspensions of nanoparticles or solutions for dry powder inhalers for use in the treatment and prevention of pulmonary diseases.

The present invention relates to a compound selected from the group consisting of cynarine, eravacycline and prexasertib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, preferably eravacycline or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and to combination of said compounds with other active ingredients, for use in the treatment and/or prevention of viral infections by coronavirus selected from the group consisting of MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 virus, to the use of said compound or its combinations in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment or prevention of said diseases and to a method of treating and/or preventing by administration of said compound or its combinations.

This disclosure relates to anti-coronavirus (e.g., SARS-CoV-2) antibodies or antigen-binding fragments and uses thereof.

A method for treating an influenza virus infection is described. The disclosed method generally involves administering an effective amount of a compound (A), for example baloxavir marboxil, and a compound (B), for example a neuraminidase inhibor, to a subject that (1) has an influenza virus infection, (2) has been symptomatic of the influenza virus infection for no more than 96 hours, and (3) further has at least one severe influenza condition selected from the following: (a) being hospitalized due to severe influenza virus infection, (b) requiring an extension of hospitalization because of the influenza virus infection during the hospitalization, (c) having a National Early Warning Score 2 of four or more, (d) being on support for respiration, and (e) having at least one complication attributable to the influenza virus infection that necessitates hospitalization.

Disclosed herein are methods for prophylactic treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) comprising administering, by inhalation, an effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one anticoagulant or antiplatelet agent to a subject in need thereof, wherein the anticoagulant or antiplatelet agent first enters the heart via the left atrium.

A particle includes at least one or more kinds of substrate and lipid nanoparticles. The lipid nanoparticles are dispersed in the substrate and contain a physiologically active substance. The lipid nanoparticles are one or more kinds selected from liposomes, lipid emulsions, and solid lipid nanoparticles. A corresponding powder inhalant contains the particle. A production method for the particle includes granulating and drying, in which a suspension containing the substrate and the lipid nanoparticles are granulated and dried in a gas medium.

A dry pharmaceutical composition is provided that is suitable for respiratory tract delivery of levodopa and DDI for treatment of Parkinson's disease or Parkinson syndrome. The dry pharmaceutical composition comprises levodopa, a dopa decarboxylase inhibitor (DDI) and at least one excipient. A unit dosage form of the dry pharmaceutical composition and a method of treating a patient with Parkinson's disease or Parkinson syndrome by administering the dry pharmaceutical composition are also provided.

A method for treating or mitigating Parkinson's disease (PD) symptoms or progression, including administering an effective amount of nicotine to a subject in need thereof, via inhalation using a nicotine inhaler or via nasal spray using a nicotine nasal spray. Significant dose-dependent improvement of all symptoms by nicotine inhaler or nicotine nasal spray is expected. A novel treatment in PD is thus provided.

The present disclosure provides methods, uses, and pharmaceutical compositions with utility in the treatment of acute lung injuries or chronic lung diseases including, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and exacerbations of bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

The present invention belongs to the field of medicine, relates to an inhaled preparation of isoglycyrrhizic acid or a salt thereof, and in particular relates to an inhaled preparation of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate and the use thereof in preparing drugs for treating respiratory system diseases.
