The present invention is directed to immunosupportive, drug sparing diets and methods of using these diets. The compositions and methods disclosed herein increase the bioavailability of pharmaceutical compositions metabolized by the gut P450 isozymes.

Immunosupportive drug sparing diet

The present invention comprises compositions and preparations for the promotion of wound healing in an animal. Methods for preparing the compositions as well as methods for using the compositions to achieve the promotion of wound healing, are also provided. The composition may comprise a dietary regimen or a therapeutic agent. These compositions include a wound healing promoting concentration of nucleotides. By way of example, such nucleotides may comprise RNA, adenine, uracil or a mixture thereof. The compositions can be prepared as suitable for oral, parenteral, intravenous or topical administration. Methods for using the preparation as a treatment to enhance the healing of an already existing wound or for use as a pretreatment regimen for animals in anticipation of surgery, are also disclosed.

Method and compositions for promotion of wound treatment

The present invention comprises compositions and preparations for the promotion of wound healing in an animal. Methods for preparing the compositions as well as methods for using the compositions to achieve the promotion of wound healing are also provided. Methods for enhancing collagen production at a wound site are also disclosed. The composition may comprise a dietary regimen or a therapeutic agent. These compositions include a wound healing promoting concentration of ribonucleotides in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier solution. By way of example, such ribonucleotides may comprise RNA, adenine, uracil or a mixture thereof. The compositions can be prepared as suitable for oral, parenteral, intravenous or topical administration. Methods for using the preparation as a treatment to enhance the healing of an already existing wound or for use as a pretreatment regimen for animals in anticipation of surgery, are also disclosed.

Ribonucleotide preparations and uses thereof

The invention provides a method of stimulating the immune function with the aid of a nucleobase source, the use of nucleobase sources for immunostimulation and compositions comprising such nucleobase sources. The invention also provides the use of nuclobase source for the maintenance of the immune function in the presense of protein depletion or protein starvation.

Nucleotides, nucleosides, and nucleobases in immune function restoration

The invention provides immunostimulatory compositions comprising an aggregate immunostimulatory amount of
