Disclosed herein are novel pharmaceutical formulations of aprepitant suitable for parenteral administration including intravenous administration. Also included are formulations including both aprepitant and dexamethasone sodium phosphate. The pharmaceutical formulations are stable oil-in-water emulsions for non-oral treatment of emesis and are particularly useful for treatment of subjects undergoing highly emetogenic cancer chemotherapy.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to compounds which have enhanced oral bioavailability. A transition metal complex includes a transition metal coordinated by a macrocycle comprising the pentaaza 15-membered macrocyclic ring corresponding to Formula A and two axial ligands having the formula OC(O)X.sub.1.

##STR00001## each of the two axial ligands has the formula OC(O)X.sub.1 wherein each X.sub.1 is independently substituted or unsubstituted phenyl or C(X.sub.2)(X.sub.3)(X.sub.4); each X.sub.2 is independently substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, or substituted or unsubstituted alkyl; each X.sub.3 is independently hydrogen, hydroxyl, alkyl, amino, X.sub.5C(O)R.sub.13 where X.sub.5 is NH or O, and R.sub.13 is C.sub.1-C.sub.18 alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl or C.sub.1-C.sub.18 aralkyl, or OR.sub.14, where R.sub.14 is C.sub.1-C.sub.18 alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl or C.sub.1-C.sub.18 aralkyl, or together with X.sub.4 is (O); and each X.sub.4 is independenly hydrogen or together with X.sub.3 is (O).

Disclosed herein are therapeutic methods, compositions, and medicaments related to cyclosporine.

The invention relates to compositions for oral administration which contain at least one cannabinoid, to methods for their preparation and to their use as pharmaceuticals or nutraceuticals. In particular, it relates to orally administrable, gelled oil-in-water emulsions which are self-supporting, viscoelastic solids having a gelled aqueous phase and an oil phase which comprises one or more physiologically tolerable lipids and at least one cannabinoid.

The invention relates to topical ophthalmic preparations in eye drops containing bimatoprost as an active ingredient at the concentration of 0.1 mg/ml, wherein the presence of benzalkonium chloride is limited to the indispensable minimum commonly required for its activity as an antimicrobial preservative, i.e. from 50 at 80 ppm, and the bioavailability of the product is ensured by the addition of specific non-ionic surfactants, i.e., poloxamers.

Described herein are compositions of pyrvinium salts suitable for oral administration. These compositions are in the form of solutions and demonstrate bioavailability both in blood plasma and in pancreatic tissue. Also described herein are methods of treating, ameliorating, and/or preventing pancreatic cancer, including orally administering a composition comprising pyrvinium pamoate.
