A composition-of-matter is provided. The present composition includes dietary supplements capable of reducing or reversing the negative effects of alcohol on motor and cognition, dietary supplements having anti-gastroparesis, antiemetic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities and/or dietary supplements capable of increasing alcohol catabolism and decreasing the level of toxic products of alcohol catabolism.

This disclosure relates to methods administering various compounds in conjunction with dextromethorphan to a human being. Dosage forms, drug delivery systems, and methods related to dextromethorphan or dextrorphan and bupropion, hydroxybupropion, erythrohydroxybupropion, threohydroxybupropion, or a metabolite or prodrug of any of these compounds are also disclosed

Described herein are novel compositions comprising, for example, PDCL3 polypeptides having VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity, inhibitory PDCL3 antibodies and PDCL3-binding fragments thereof, or PDCL3 inhibitory nucleic acid molecules, and methods of their use in anti-angiogenesis and anti-tumor proliferation and invasiveness therapies, such as the treatment of cancer, as well as the treatment of those vascular diseases where pathological angiogenesis plays a role, such as in carotid artery disease, macular degeneration, and plaque neovascularization. Also described herein are novel compositions comprising engineered PDCL3 polypeptides having enhanced chaperone activity, recombinant cells comprising such engineered PDCL3 polypeptides having enhanced chaperone activity, and methods thereof for therapeutic protein production and in vitro protein synthesis.

There is provided pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of e.g. opioid dependency comprising microparticles of a pharmacologically-effective amount of buprenorphine, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, in associative admixture with particles comprising a weak acid, or particles comprising weakly-acidic buffer forming materials. The composition may further comprise a disintegrant and/or particles of a pharmacologically-effective amount of naloxone, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof. The compositions are useful in the treatment of opioid dependency/addiction and/or pain.

Compositions and methods are provided that enhance cognition in a human to which the composition is orally administered. Remarkably, clinical studies have proven that contemplated compositions achieved the desired effects using a minimal number of active ingredients at or near threshold active dosages, wherein such compositions almost exclusively comprise huperzine A, vinpocetine or rhodiola, and acetyl-L-carnitine, and optionally further include alpha lipoic acid, rhodiola, and biotin.

The present invention relates to methods of treating or preventing addiction and relapse use of addictive agents, and treating or preventing addictive or compulsive behaviour and relapse practice of an addictive behaviour or compulsion, by administering a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonist, alone or in combination with another therapeutic agent, such as, for example, an opioid receptor antagonist or an antidepressant, or an addictive agent, such as, for example, an opioid agonist. The present invention also includes pharmaceutical compositions for treating or preventing addiction or relapse that include a PPARγ agonist and one or more other therapeutic or addictive agents, as well as unit dosage forms of such pharmaceutical compositions, which contain a dosage effective in treating or preventing addiction or relapse. The methods and compositions of the invention are useful in the treatment or prevention of addiction to any agent, including alcohol, nicotine, marijuana, cocaine, and amphetamines, as well as compulsive and addictive behaviours, including pathological gambling and pathological overeating.

A human dietary supplement comprises theacrine and optionally other compounds that modulate the effects of theacrine. Uses for the theacrine-containing supplement include improvement of at least one of mood, energy, focus, concentration or sexual desire or a reduction of at least one of anxiety or fatigue. A synergistic composition comprises co-administration of theacrine and caffeine, wherein the co-administered caffeine reduces theacrine oral clearance (CL/F) and oral volume of distribution (Vd/F). In addition, the co-administered caffeine increases area under the plasma concentration time curve (AUC) of theacrine, and increases theacrine maximum plasma concentration (C.sub.max) in comparison with the corresponding pharmacokinetic parameters when theacrine is administered alone.
