The present invention relates to formulations of a local anesthetic that provide prompt local anesthesia following topical administration, teaching formulation compositions suitable for administration to the skin that provide onsets of less than one hour. Also disclosed are methods of making the formulations and methods of preventing pain in a subject.

Exemplary systems and methods associated with trans-tissue substance delivery using non-thermal plasma to porate skin or tissues using contoured dielectrics/electrodes and grounding techniques. In some embodiments, a substance delivery system may be incorporated into the plasma generating device for automatically controlled skin treatments. In other embodiments, a skin treatment patch may include the electrode and the treatment substance.

Disclosed are muscarinic agonist compounds including oxadiazole derivatives, compositions and preparations thereof. Also disclosed are methods of synthesizing such oxadiazole compounds. Further disclosed are methods for treating a subject with said muscarinic agonists or a pharmaceutically suitable form thereof to enhance cognitive function.

Transdermal delivery devices for the delivery of cannabidiol (CBD) are shown and described. In reservoir patch designs, a microporous, hydrophilic membrane and a backing define a reservoir that houses a mixture of CBD, a polar liquid, and a gelling agent. The hydrophilic membrane is coated with an amine-compatible silicone skin adhesive. In a monolithic design, a release liner is coated with a mixture of CBD and a PIB or amine-compatible silicone skin adhesive laminated to the backing material. In either design, the CBD may be provided as a pure compound or as a component of a cannabis oil.

Among other things, the present disclosure provides compositions and methods for an elastomeric cross-linked polyester material. Such an elastomeric cross-linked polyester material, in some embodiments, comprises a plurality of polymeric units of the general formula (-A-B-).sub.p, wherein p is an integer greater than 1; and a plurality of urethane cross-links each of which covalently links two polymeric units to one another, which two linked polymeric unit each had at least one free hydroxyl or amino group prior to formation of the crosslink.

Provided herein are topical formulations containing copper ions and methods of treating inflammatory, microbial, and arthritic conditions in various areas of the body using such formulations. Methods of treating osteoarthritis using topical copper ion treatments are provided. Methods of treating and preventing microbial infections using copper ion treatments are further provided, including methods of preventing biofilm. A topical treatment in its basic form comprises a biocompatible copper ion solution or suspension obtained by leaching of the copper ions from copper metal. The copper ion solution or suspension is combined with various carriers to form the copper ion treatment including creams, gels, lotions, foams, pastes, tampons, solutions, suppositories, body wipes, wound dressings, skin patches, and suture material. Methods of making the copper ion solution or suspension from solid copper metal in a biocompatible solution are also provided.

Provided is a transdermal absorption preparation having superior drug skin permeability, which can uniformly disperse the drug in the preparation and maintain the uniform dispersion state of the drug. A transdermal absorption preparation having a plaster layer containing a drug, a polymer and a pH adjuster, in which the aforementioned polymer contains a polymer having a particular glass transition temperature of 30° C.-200° C., and the surface of the plaster layer has a pH of 6.7-10.0.

The present invention relates to a transdermal composition for dementia treatment containing donepezil as an active ingredient. The transdermal composition according to the present invention contains highly concentrated donepezil in a hydrophobic matrix, can continuously release the drug for a long time by having excellent long-term adhesion to the skin, and further exhibits consistently effective therapeutic effects over a long period of time by having a significantly improved skin penetration rate in comparison with conventional donepezil patches.

A double disk dermal device for administration of one or more active agents to the skin or mucosa of a host, in particular a patch is described including: a) active reservoir film layer; b) a backing overlay adjacent to the active reservoir film layer extending beyond the perimeter of the reservoir layer in all directions; c) second overlay backing layer with a coating of pressure sensitive adhesive which is adjacent to the first backing overlay extending beyond the perimeter of the first backing overlay in all directions; and d) a removable release liner. A method of making the device is also provided.
