Therapeutic delivery systems are provided which, in a first embodiment, contain a plurality of multiphase capsules in which first and second therapeutic agents are contained in separate phases within said multiphase capsules, and are disposed to deliver said first and therapeutic agents by at least two different delivery mechanisms.

Therapeutic delivery system

Nasal dilators and strips, methods of their manufacture, and methods for improving the breathing of individuals are provided. The strips and dilators include an elongated substrate, with or without a dilating component or portion, having top and bottom surfaces and a pressure-sensitive adhesive disposed on the bottom surface. The dilator is designed to provide a gentle expanding force to the nasal wall tissue when the dilator is adhesively attached to the nose. This invention further includes a cosmetic fragrance, an aromatic medication and/or transdermal medication disposed on the strips or dilators. In order to improve the shelf-life and in-use olfactory effectiveness of such products, fragrance delivery mechanisms are used. Separation of volatile oils and adhesives are also provided to minimize adhesive residue.

Adhesively applied external nasal strips and dilators containing medications and fragrances

Microencapsulated fragrances and methods of coating microcapsules

Nasal dilators and methods for improving the breathing of individuals are provid. The dilator includes an elongated substrate having top and bottom surfaces and a pressure-sensitive adhesive disposed on the bottom surface. The elongated substrate can be made with resilient or spring material, or a resilient member can be bonded to the substrate to provide a gentle expanding force to the nasal wall tissue when the dilator is adhesively attached to the nose. This invention further includes an aromatic or transdermal substance, or both, disposed on the dilator to further improve breathing. Ideal aromatic substances include camphor and menthol. The aromatic substance can be disposed in a segregate form or in body activatable composition.

Medicated nasal dilator

Nasal dilators and methods for improving the breathing of individuals are provided. The dilator includes an elongated substrate having top and bottom surfaces and a pressure-sensitive adhesive disposed on the bottom surface. A resilient member is bonded to the substrate to provide a gentle expanding force to the nasal wall tissue when the dilator is adhesively attached to the nose. This invention further includes an aromatic medication or transdermal medication disposed on the dilator to further improve breathing. Ideal aromatic medications include camphor and menthol. Reinforcing scrims, layers and thermoplastics melt-bonding procedures are also provided for improving properties and minimizing costs.
