TREATMENT OF PAIN BY ADMINISTRATION OF SUSTAINED-RELEASE LIPOSOMAL ANESTHETIC COMPOSITIONS
In some embodiments provided herein is a method of treating pain, the method comprising administering into the subject
a pharmaceutical composition comprising multivesicular liposomes encapsulating bupivacaine phosphate, said multivesicular liposomes comprising
bupivacaine or a salt thereof;
phosphoric acid;
a lipid component comprising at least one amphipathic lipid and at least one neutral lipid lacking a hydrophilic head group; and,
optionally, a cholesterol and/or a plant sterol wherein said multivesicular liposomes are made by a process comprising:
a) preparing a first aqueous component comprising phosphoric acid;
b) preparing a lipid component comprising at least one organic solvent, at least one amphipathic lipid, and at least one neutral lipid lacking a hydrophilic head group;
c) mixing said first aqueous component and said lipid component to form a water-in-oil emulsion, wherein at least one component comprises bupivacaine or a salt thereof;
d) mixing said water-in-oil emulsion with a second aqueous component to form solvent spherules; and
e) removing the organic solvent from the solvent spherules to form multivesicular liposomes encapsulating bupivacaine phosphate,
wherein inadvertent administration of the pharmaceutical composition into the vasculature of the subject does not result in cardiac side effects or CNS side effects in the subject.
METHOD OF PRODUCING A COMPOSITION FOR THE TREATMENT OF CARDIOVASCULAR AND CEREBROVASCULAR DISEASES
A method of producing a composition for a treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is provided. The method includes the following steps of: a) according to a ratio of 1 lt, adding 2 ml 36.5-37.5% formic aldehyde solution to 998 ml sterile and 0.85-0.95% isotonic sodium chloride solution to obtain a mixture, mixing the mixture thoroughly and obtaining an aldehyde solution with a final concentration of 0.073-0.075% by weight for injection, and b) storing the composition obtained in a dark place at a temperature of 15-35° C.
