Provided is a pharmaceutical composition that can be easily administered into the ear and has a function of allowing a drug to be retained and slowly released in the ear, a pharmaceutical composition for otic administration comprising one, or two or more drugs and a water-dispersible fine cellulose composition, in particular, microcrystalline cellulose-carmellose sodium.

A method of providing an IV nimodipine infusion regimen using a solubilized nimodipine solution suitable for IV administration is disclosed. The IV nimodipine infusion regimen provides a constant infusion rate over the (entire) 24 hour period supplemented with higher infusions of nimodipine at set intervals to duplicate the 24 hour AUC and C.sub.max of an oral nimodipine dose.

Novel therapeutic uses of compounds for enhancing mitochondrial function and treating a mitochondrial disease are discovered by artificial intelligence (AI)-based in silico approaches and validated by in vitro and in vivo animal model studies in mitochondrial disease models. Methods of enhancing mitochondrial function and/or treating mitochondrial disease include administering an active compound to a subject in need.

The invention provides compositions and methods for delaying the onset of delivery in a pregnant subject, such as a pregnant human subject, that is undergoing or at risk of undergoing preterm labor at a gestational age of from about 24 weeks to about 34 weeks. Using the compositions and methods described herein, such subjects may be administered nifedipine in combination with a prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) antagonist. Exemplary PGF2α receptor antagonists that may be used for the treatment or prevention of preterm labor as described herein include 1,3-thiazolidine-2-carboxamide compounds, such as (3S)-3-({[(2S)-3-(biphenyl-4-ylsulfonyl)-1,3-thiazolidin-2-yl]carbonyl}-amino)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propyl L-valinate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., (3S)-3-({[(2S)-3-(biphenyl-4-ylsulfonyl)-1,3-thiazolidin-2-yl]carbonyl}-amino)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propyl L-valinate hydrochloride. Using the compositions and methods described herein, a subject may be dosed with a PGF2α receptor antagonist and a reduced amount or frequency of nifedipine relative to the amount or frequency of nifedipine that would otherwise be used if the nifedipine were given in the absence of the PGF2α receptor antagonist.
