A moisturizing composition for delivery of lidocaine is provided with viscosity thickening provided by the use of sclerotium gum and hydroxyethylcellulose in approximately equivalent amounts in a slightly acidic vehicle without anionic compounds.

The invention relates to compositions for use in the treatment or prevention of pathogenic infections, rosacea, eczema and psoriasis in humans or animals. The compositions of the invention are also useful in the healing of wounds in a human or animal, and for killing or inactivating viruses on a surface.

The present invention provides polymersomes comprising amphiphilic block-copolymers and their use to quantify ammonia in samples (e.g., body fluid samples). More particularly, it provides a polymersome comprising (a) a membrane, which comprises a block copolymer of poly(styrene) (PS) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), wherein the PS/PEO molecular weight ratio is higher than 1.0 and lower than 4.0; and (b) a core which encloses an acid and at least one pH-sensitive dye. Compositions, strips and kits comprising the polymersomes are also provided along with methods of quantifying ammonia in a sample using the polymersomes, compositions and kit.

The present invention discloses an ionic liquid composition comprising an at least partially hydrophobic ionic liquid, wherein the at least partially hydrophobic ionic liquid comprises a dication comprising two monocationic groups linked by a bridging group wherein the bridging group provides an at least partially hydrophobic character. The composition may also include a hydrophilic ionic liquid. The hydrophobic ionic liquid may include a quaternary ammonium group which may be substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated, linear, branched, cyclic or aromatic and the bridging group is a unsubstituted or substituted C.sub.3-C.sub.10 alkylene or C.sub.3-C.sub.10 alkoxyalkyl. Also disclosed is a nanoemulsion formulation which includes the ionic liquid compositions, at least one polymer, a hydrophobic liquid, an aqueous liquid, and a hydrophobic or hydrophilic therapeutic agent. Methods to deliver a therapeutic agent by delivering a nanoemulsion and methods to make a nanoemulsion are also disclosed.

An aqueous ophthalmic composition, comprising: a therapeutically effective amount of brimonidine or their salts thereof; a therapeutically effective amount of brinzolamide or their salts thereof; buffers at a concentration that is at least about 0.05% w/v to 5.0% w/v of the ophthalmic composition; a preservative and; pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, wherein the pH of said composition is less than 8.0.

Provided herein are compositions and methods for treating, reducing, preventing, inhibiting, mitigating, ameliorating, or slowing ocular replication or infections, such as viral conjunctivitis. Certain embodiments of the present disclosure relate to product combinations that include one or more ribonuclease, such as ranpirnase, or a variant, derivative, analogue, fragment, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and one or more additional therapeutic agent, such as a vasoconstrictor, an antibiotic, an immunomodulatory compound, or a steroid.

The present disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions for treating fungal and bacterial infections. The pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure comprise a cationic surfactant, a chelating agent, and at least one solvent. The pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure can be used to treat drug-sensitive or multi drug-resistant bacterial or fungal infections.

The present invention is related to a method of treating a patient having an eye disorder selected from the group consisting of presbyopia, glaucoma, or halos and glare, the method comprising administering to the patient a liquid composition comprising a pharmacologically effective amount of dapiprazole or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt.

A topical ophthalmological composition includes a multikinase inhibitor as an active pharmaceutical ingredient, and perfluorohexyloctane (F6H8) as a liquid vehicle. The multikinase inhibitor inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs). A method for treating an ophthalmological disorder includes: providing a topical ophthalmological composition containing a multikinase inhibitor at a concentration of about 0.01-10% (w/v); and treating a patient with the topical ophthalmological composition for treating the ophthalmological disorder.

The invention relates to topical ophthalmic preparations in eye drops containing bimatoprost as an active ingredient at the concentration of 0.1 mg/ml, wherein the presence of benzalkonium chloride is limited to the indispensable minimum commonly required for its activity as an antimicrobial preservative, i.e. from 50 at 80 ppm, and the bioavailability of the product is ensured by the addition of specific non-ionic surfactants, i.e., poloxamers.
