The present invention relates to a method of treatment and/or ameliorating the symptoms of Huntington's disease comprising the step of administering an effective amount of adenosine triphosphate, co-carboxylase, nicotinamide, and cyanocobalamin in a physiologically acceptable carrier to an individual in need thereof. Preferably, the administration is via intramuscular injection.

Treatment of huntington'S disease

Treatment of Huntington's disease

A free-flowing, amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride composition suitable as a therapeutic agent for premature ejaculation can be prepared by dissolving paroxetine free base in a hydrochloric acid-ethanol solution followed by drying. The present compositions comprise amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride and at least one hydroxyl-bearing compound. In one preferred embodiment, the hydroxyl-bearing compound is ethanol and the amount of ethanol present in the amorphous product is in the range of 1 to 4 weight percent based on paroxetine hydrochloride. The amorphous product is stable and substantially non-hygroscopic.

Amorphous paroxetine composition

Impotence can be ameliorated without substantial undesirable side effects by nasal administration of apomorphine, optionally with an antiemetic agent present in an amount sufficient to substantially reduce nausea symptoms that may be associated with the use of apomorphine.

Apomorphine-containing dosage form for ameliorating male erectile dysfunction

A stable amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride composition suitable as a therapeutic agent is prepared employing an aqueous solvent medium containing an acidulant and polyvinylpyrrolidone and drying the resulting solid dispersion. The preferred compositions include amorphous paroxetine hydrochloride, polyvinylpyrrolidone and citric acid.

Psychogenic impotence can be ameliorated without substantial undesirable side effects by administration of apomorphine and an antiemetic agent in an amount sufficient to substantially reduce nausea symptoms associated with the use of apomorphine.

Apomorphine-containing dosage forms for ameliorating male erectile dysfunction

Psychogenic impotence or erectile dysfunction can be identified in psychogenic male patients and can be ameliorated, without substantial undesirable side effects, by sublingual administration of apomorphine dosage forms so as to maintain a plasma concentration of apomorphine of no more than about 5.5 nanograms per milliliter.

Dosage forms containing apomorphine for ameliorating male erectile dysfunction

Sexual dysfunction in human females can be ameliorated, without substantial undesirable side effects, by apomorphine. Administration of apomorphine increases nerve stimulated clitoral intracavernosal blood flow and vaginal wall blood flow for enhanced clitoral erection and vaginal engorgement in a female. A plasma concentration of apomorphine of no more than about 5.5 nanograms per milliliter is preferably maintained.

Female sexual dysfunction treatment

Apomorphine-containing dosage forms for ameliorating male erectile

The treatment of sexual dysfunction in human patients by an oral therapy regimen of administration of apomorphine and sildenafil is disclosed. This treatment optimizes the efficacy of each drug and substantially minimizes the undesirable side effects associated individually therewith. Apomorphine and sildenafil can be co-administered with a combination dosage unit or administered sequentially in separate dosage units, substantially prior to sexual activity. Other erectogenic agents can be administered along with apomorphine and sildenafil.

Apomorphine and sildenafil composition

Symptoms of Parkinson's disease and psychogenic male erectile dysfunction (MED) can be ameliorated through the use of apomorphine. The adverse side effects of apomorphine administration, such as nausea, vomiting, yawning, and cardiovascular effects, can be significantly reduced by a dose escalating method of acclimatization. An initial dose of apomorphine is administered to the patient, and subsequently increased over a period of time until a final apomorphine dose in excess of a desired therapeutic dose has been received by the patient. Thereafter a therapeutic dose of apomorphine, less than the final apomorphine dose, is administered to the patient with attendant reduced side effects.

Amelioration of apomorphine adverse effects

Dosage forms and method for ameliorating male erectile dysfunction

Sexual dysfunction in human females can be ameliorated, without substantial undesirable side effects, by sublingual administration of apomorphine dosage forms. Administration of apomorphine increases nerve stimulated clitoral intracavernosal blood flow and vaginal wall blood flow for enhanced clitoral erection and vaginal engorgement in a female. A plasma concentration of apomorphine of no more than about 5.5 nanograms per milliliter is preferably maintained.

Treatment of female sexual dysfunction

Dosage forms for the transdermal administration of apomorphine are described. The dosage forms are water-soluble gel compositions that contain apomorphine, optionally together with a permeation enhancer, or transdermal patches.

Transdermal administration of apomorphine

A composition providing a relatively slow release of water-soluble drugs, such as apomorphine, for delivery via the sublingual or buccal routes.
