The present invention relates to a hybrid nanodot made by a process comprising a step of reacting a mixture of an amino acid and a polymer selected from polycationic polymers or any copolymers or derivatives of these polymers under hydrothermal reaction conditions. The present invention also relates to a process for synthesizing said hybrid nanodots.

Provided herein are gel formulations of acyclovir with a low concentration of acyclovir, which can be used, for example, for the treatment of recurrent herpes labialis (cold sores) in immunocompetent adults and adolescents 12 years of age and older. The gel formulation can be an aqueous gel formulation, an emulsified gel formulation, or a non-aqueous gel formulation.

Compositions including a complex of fatty acids (e.g., including one or more C4 to C40 fatty acids, such as a C4 to C20 fatty acid) and one or more amino acids (and particularly one or more amino acids having electrically charged basic side chains, e.g., Arginine, Lysine, etc.) for use as an anti-pathogenic composition. In particular, described herein are compositions of decanoic acid: Arginine in which the decanoic acid and Arginine for a complex having a lamellar supramolecular structure.
