Methods for Increasing the Bioavailability of OTC and Pharmaceutical Drugs
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for enhancing the efficacy of drug compounds. The subject invention utilizes an adjuvant composition comprising of one or more microbial-produced biosurfactants and/or isoforms thereof to enhance bioavailability, stability, and localization of the drugs in a subject, to reduce the total dosage that is required, and to prolong the pre-administration stability of the drugs.
Pharmaceutical Composition for Treating Cancer Comprising Trypsinogen and/or Chymotrypsinogen and an Active Agent Selected from a Selenium Compound, a Vanilloid Compound and a Cytoplasmic Glycolysis Reduction Agent
The present invention generally relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing a protease proenzyme and use thereof for treating cancer. The pharmaceutical compositions are directed to compositions comprising a protease proenzyme and an active agent, the composition being capable of providing a multi-functional approach for treating cancer. The pharmaceutical compositions are also directed to compositions comprising a first and a second protease proenzyme capable of activation at or near a surface of a tumour cell to enhance cell-to-cell adhesion of tumour cells, effect proteolysis of tumour cells, or induce tumour cell apoptosis, differentiation or immunorecognition, wherein the first protease proenzyme is chymotrypsinogen and the second protease proenzyme is trypsinogen. The pharmaceutical compositions are also directed to compositions comprising a first and second active agent each capable of inducing intracellular activity in tumour cells.

PROTEASE COMPOSITIONS FOR USE IN MODIFYING SEMEN
Provided herein are edible compositions for reducing semen viscosity and/or enhancing semen flavor, and methods of using and preparing such compositions.
ENZYME DELIVERY SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF PREPARATION AND USE
This invention relates to coated digestive enzyme preparations and enzyme delivery systems and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the preparations. This invention further relates to methods of preparation and use of the systems, pharmaceutical compositions and preparations to treat persons having ADD, ADHD, autism, cystic fibrosis and other behavioral and neurological disorders.
PHARMACEUTICAL PREPARATIONS FOR ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDER, ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER AND OTHER ASSOCIATED DISORDERS
A pharmaceutical preparation for the treatment of attention deficit disorders combines a therapeutically effective amount of digestive enzymes, such as chymotrypsin, and medication used to treat attention deficit disorders, such as Ritalin®, Concerta®, Adderall® and Strattera®. The preparation may be in the form of a tablet, capsule or time released formula in order to reduce the amount of pills per dosage. The pharmaceutical preparation ameliorates the symptoms of the attention deficit disorder. The preparation has a stabilizing matrix containing a solidified microcrystalline cellulose which captures and protects therapeutically effective amounts of digestive enzyme particles within the stabilizing matrix.
