A stable liquid composition in a clear bottle where the composition contains, at least, phenylephrine and acetaminophen. The composition is substantially free of aldehydes and has a pH from 3.5 to 5. The clear bottle is a polyethylene terphthalate bottle.

Disclosed are compounds of formula I ##STR00001## as described herein, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds are disclosed to be inhibitors of plasma kallikrein. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising at least one compound of the invention, and methods involving use of the compounds and compositions of the invention in the treatment and prevention of diseases and conditions characterized by unwanted plasma kallikrein activity.

The invention relates to Substituted-Quinoxaline-Type Bridged-Piperidine Compounds, compositions comprising an effective amount of a Substituted-Quinoxaline-Type Bridged-Piperidine Compound and methods to treat or prevent a condition, such as pain, comprising administering to an animal in need thereof an effective amount of a Substituted-Quinoxaline-Type Bridged-Piperidine Compound.

Disclosed herein are novel compositions and methods for controlling the release of bile acid sequestrant to the stomach in order to treat or prevent upper GI tract disorders or disorders of the throat. The methods generally include administering to a patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one bile acid sequestrant dispersed in a polymeric matrix. The bile acid sequestrant composition may be administered alone or in combination with at least one proton pump inhibitor, and optionally one or more agents chosen from antacids, histamine H.sub.2-receptor antagonists, y-aminobutyric acid-I3 (GABA-B) agonists, prodrugs of GABA-B agonists, acid pump antagonists, protease inhibitors and GC-C agonists.

The invention provides a method and/or composition for the treatment of bone cancer including primary bone cancer and secondary bone cancer, breast cancer, skin cancer, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, oral cancer, vulva cancer, prostate cancer, cervical cancer, melanoma including melanocarcinoma by percutaneous and/or transmucosal administration of the interferon. Further, the invention provides a method and/or composition for the treatment of skin, subcutaneous, mucosal and/or submucosal primary cancer and cancer metastatic lesions by percutaneous and/or transmucosal administration of the interferon, especially a method and/or composition for the treatment of bone cancer pain including pain resulted by secondary bone cancer.

Disclosed are methods of preparing an isolated population of human papillomavirus (HPV)-specific T cells comprise dividing an HPV-positive tumor sample into multiple fragments; separately culturing the multiple fragments; obtaining T cells from the cultured multiple fragments; testing the T cells for specific autologous HPV-positive tumor recognition; selecting the T cells that exhibit specific autologous HPV-positive tumor recognition; and expanding the number of selected T cells to produce a population of HPV-specific T cells for adoptive cell therapy. Related methods of treating or preventing cancer using the T cells are also disclosed.
