Disclosed herein are new therapeutic methods comprising administering compounds that can stabilize HIF and inhibit HIF prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH). In particular, methods described herein can be useful for treating/preventing a disease or condition in patients in need thereof, such as a patient having a viral infection such as a respiratory and/or pulmonary viral infection (e.g., an infection such as COVID-19 or a coronavirus infection). Methods described herein can also be useful for treating/preventing organ injury (e.g. organ injury that occurs concurrently or as a result of an infection). For example, methods described herein can be useful for treating or preventing acute lung injury, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), cardiovascular injury, injury to the liver, kidney diseases, and/or multi-organ failure.

The present disclosure provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising H1 antagonist or a salt or a hydrate or a solvate thereof: a diluent; a solvent; an emollient; a humectant; a preservative; an emulsifier; and a surfactant, said composition being formulated as a topical formulation. The composition may include one or more additional active agents. The composition is formulated into a topical lotion, solution, spray, emulsion, emulsion of water and oil (oil in water or water in oil emulsion), gel, or cream. The compositions of the present disclosure may find utility in treatment of allergic conditions/diseases of skin. It further relates to a method of treating an allergic condition using the compositions of the present disclosure.

Compositions and methods for the treatment of tuberculosis, as well as other mycobacterial and gram positive bacterial infections are disclosed. These compositions contain a highly potent and selective oxazolidinone encapsulated with high efficiency to maximize dosing potential of low toxicity drugs, and are stable in the presence of plasma. The compositions are long circulating and retain their encapsulated drug while in the circulation following intravenous dosing to allow for efficient accumulation at the site of the bacterial or mycobacterial infection. The high doses that can be achieved when combined with the long circulating properties and highly stable retention of the drug allow for a reduced frequency of administration when compared to daily or twice daily administrations of other drugs typically utilized to treat these infections.

Provided are methods for reducing substance consumption by subjects. In some embodiments, the presently disclosed methods include administering to a subject in need thereof a composition that includes an effective amount of an inhibitor of an EHMT2/G9A biological activity. In some embodiments, the inhibitor of an EHMT2/G9A biological activity is a small molecule inhibitor, a nucleic acid-based inhibitor, and anti-EHMT2/G9A antibody or a fragment or derivative thereof, or any combination thereof. Also provided are methods for reducing relapse vulnerability in subjects that have Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) and/or another substance use disorder. In some embodiments, the presently disclosed methods further include administering at least one additional therapy to subjects, including but not limited to behavioral therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapies.
