Topical dosages and formulations of chloroprocaine and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are provided that are efficacious, chemically stable and physiologically balanced for safety and efficacy, particularly during ophthalmic procedures or in response to ophthalmic abrasions or trauma.

Topical formulations of chloroprocaine and methods of using same

In a first aspect, the present invention relates to a process for producing a stable, injectable solution with low content of noradrenaline, which includes dissolving noradrenaline and optionally an excipient in deoxygenated or degassed water, filtrating the resulting noradrenaline solution in a nitrogen current, distributing the solution in a nitrogen current, and sterilization, preferably hot. The invention further provides a stable, injectable solution with low content of noradrenaline, substantially free of anti-oxidizing and preservative agents, as well as uses thereof in the medical and pharmaceutical fields.

Methods of treatment, pharmaceutically acceptable solutions, and implantable devices are provided for the intrathecal treatment of AED-resistant seizures using levetiracetam.

Intrathecal administration of levetiracetam

The present invention relates to an acetaminophen injectable aqueous solution for use in the treatment or in the prevention of pain by spinal administration, wherein said acetaminophen injectable solution is supersaturated. In certain embodiments, the acetaminophen injectable aqueous solution is administered simultaneously, separately or sequentially with a local anaesthetic by spinal administration.

Injectable supersaturated acetaminophen solution for spinal administration

This invention relates to an ampoule opening device () for the opening of glass ampoules () of the type used in particular in the pharmaceutical field for injection substances. The device according to this invention allows opening, by rupture of the neck of the ampoule, glass ampoules of different capacities (and therefore of sizes), by generating a non irregular rupture edge and therefore minimizing the creation of glass fragments that may fall into the substance contained within the ampoule. Moreover, the device object of this invention allows avoiding contact of the user's fingers with the neck and the cap of the ampoule, thereby preventing any risk of accidental injuries. The device object of this invention allows obtaining excellent results in terms of quality of the rupture edge of the ampoule neck and of repeating the result obtained thanks to the fact that the device allows to apply to the ampoule a constant rupture bending moment for ampoules of the same type.

This invention relates to an injectable pharmaceutical composition based on chloroprocaine or salts and/or derivatives thereof for use in central loco-regional anesthesia by intrathecal administration in repeated doses. Unexpectedly, the intrathecal administration in repeated doses of chloroprocaine does not increase the neurotoxicity of this drug in statistically significant manner.

Chloroprocaine-based pharmaceutical composition for repeated intrathecal administration

The present invention concerns a new use for a composition containing chloroprocaine HCl, and in particular its use for the manufacture of a drug for intrathecal narcosis. The present invention also concerns a new composition containing chloroprocaine HCl, being particularly suited to this new use, as well as a new method for manufacturing the composition.

Use for a composition comprising chloroprocaine HCL, a new composition comprising chloroprocaine HCL and a method for its manufacture

The present invention concerns new preservative-free hyperbaric compositions of prilocaine HCI intended for use in intrathecal narcosis, characterized by high stability at ambient temperature (15&#xb0; C. -27&#xb0; C.). The present invention also concerns a method for manufacturing said compositions.
