Compositions and methods are provided for the prevention or treatment of RSV infection and SARS-CoV2 virus related infections, such as COVID-19 (2019-nCoV), in a human. The methods include administering one or more doses of a composition comprising an encapsulated nano-metal oxide (NMO) or nano-metal oxide chelate (NMO-Ch). The dose can be formulated for topical or parenteral administration. Topical administration includes administration as a nasal spray, or by inhalation of respirable particles or droplets. Particles or droplets contain material systems that include composite particles having a core and one or more shells that enclose the core. In this case, the shell is a nonlamellar amorphous material, and the internal matrix core contains a metal oxide or metal oxide chelate.

A compartmented hard shell capsule for containing active formulations, and methods and apparatuses for forming, filling and encapsulating the compartmented hard shell capsules. The compartmented hard shell capsule includes a cap portion and a body portion. The cap portion has a hollow cavity defining a cap chamber. The body portion can be removably inserted into the cap portion. The body portion has an open end, a closed end and a sidewall defining a hollow cavity and a serrated edge along the open end. The serrated edge may be folded over to form a barrier to enclose the body portion, thereby creating a body chamber that is separate from the cap chamber when the body portion is inserted into the cap portion. The methods for filling and encapsulating the compartmented hard shell capsules can be completed in one continuous process, which increases cost-effectiveness for use of the compartmented hard shell capsules.

Estrogen and progesterone replacement therapies are provided herein. Among others, the following formulations are provided herein: solubilized estradiol without progesterone; micronized progesterone without estradiol; micronized progesterone with partially solubilized progesterone; solubilized estradiol with micronized progesterone; solubilized estradiol with micronized progesterone in combination with partially solubilized progesterone; and solubilized estradiol with solubilized progesterone.

Various methods and apparatuses are presented for an ingestible capsule that includes a digital, ingestible sensor component—or ingestible sensor—embedded into the capsule. The ingestible sensor component may be configured to activate upon coming into contact with conductive fluid, such as a body's stomach fluid. Once activated, the ingestible sensor component may be configured to perform various tasks, such as transmitting one or more signals and obtaining biometric data about the body that ingested the capsule.

A microcapsule and a preparation method thereof, especially a multi-layer microcapsule containing an active substance and a preparation method thereof, the microcapsule having a single-layer or a multiple-layer encapsulation structure. A probiotic microcapsule and a preparation method thereof, the probiotic microcapsule having a single-layer or a multi-layer encapsulation structure. A food product or a health product containing a probiotic microcapsule (comprising a dairy product, a fermented-style food product, a beverage, chocolate, candy, a baked good, a fruit or vegetable juice product, etc. containing a probiotic microcapsule) and a preparation method thereof. A probiotic microcapsule soft powder and a preparation method thereof, the probiotic microcapsule soft powder comprising probiotic microcapsule nata de coco soft powder and probiotic microcapsule gel ball soft powder.

The disclosed invention relates to a low-dose celecoxib oral formulation, and a preparation method therefor, which is characterized in that the strength of the formulation is 60-90% of the original strength of the commercial celecoxib product, and the celecoxib formulation with such reduced strength is bioequivalent to the commercial celecoxib product. The celecoxib formulation can be used for the treatment of mild to moderate pain and mild to moderate chronic pain.

An orally administered solid dosage form drug for treating cancers, tumors or cell proliferative disorders contains a compound of the following structural formula I or II.
