The present disclosure provides for topical emulsion comprising about 0.5% to about 10% Montelukast or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and about 0.4% to about 4% carbomer; wherein particles comprising the Montelukast in the emulsion have D90 of less than about 50 μm, wherein the Montelukast or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is homogeneously dispersed in the emulsion, and wherein the emulsion has a pH of about 3.0 to about 6.5. The present disclosure also provides a topical gel comprising (a) about 0.5% to about 10% Montelukast or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (b) about 0.2% to about 8% cellulose polymer; and (c) about 80% to about 95% amphiphilic compound; wherein the gel comprises less than 4% water.

Topical Montelukast formulations

The present disclosure provides for topical emulsion comprising about 0.5% to about 10% Montelukast or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and about 0.4% to about 4% carbomer; wherein particles comprising the Montelukast in the emulsion have D90 of less than about 50 wherein the Montelukast or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is homogeneously dispersed in the emulsion, and wherein the emulsion has a pH of about 3.0 to about 6.5. The present disclosure also provides a topical gel comprising (a) about 0.5% to about 10% Montelukast or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (b) about 0.2% to about 8% cellulose polymer; and (c) about 80% to about 95% amphiphilic compound; wherein the gel comprises less than 4% water.

Embodiments of stable topical compositions for administering fenoldopam (compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof are disclosed for immediate or continued slow release administration, over prolonged periods of time with safe minimal systemic exposure of fenoldopam (reducing the risk for lowering blood pressure). The compositions include those compositions that increase the stability and skin absorption of the drug, particularly anhydrous semi-solid compositions and creams. This is accomplished by incorporating fenoldopam in soluble or dispersed form into semi-solid compositions like ointments or anhydrous gels that are not irritative. Embodiments of methods for using the topical compositions in the treatment of dermatological disorders including psoriasis, alopecia atopic dermatitis and vitiligo are disclosed. 

Fenoldopam topical formulations for treating skin disorders

The present invention relates to a novel and unexpected method of using topical Capecitabine composition to obtain therapeutically effective amounts of fluorouracil (FU) within the skin of a subject afflicted with hyperproliferative or inflammatory skin condition. The method comprising topically administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising Capecitabine or a hydrate or solvate thereof to the affected area of the skin of the subject, to form therapeutically effective amounts of FU within the skin.

Topical capecitabine for the treatment of hyperproliferative skin conditions

The present disclosure is directed to a topical composition, e.g., a physically and chemically stable topical composition of Fenoldopam comprising about 0.1% to about 5% by weight of Fenoldopam or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, at least one polyacrylamide-type gelling agent, at least one cellulose-type gelling agent, and at least one solvent, wherein the Fenoldopam is substantially solubilized in the composition, and wherein the composition is stable for at least twelve months at 25&#xb0; C. and 60% relative humidity.

Stable topical compositions of fenoldopam

A copolymer characterized by alternating or semi-alternating ester and anhydride bonds, methods for its production and use thereof, particularly as a carrier for drug delivery, are described herein.

Alternating and semi-alternating poly(ester-anhydride) copolymers

The present disclosure provides for topical emulsion comprising about 0.5% to about 10% Montelukast or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and about 0.4% to about 4% carbomer; wherein particles comprising the Montelukast in the emulsion have D90 of less than about 50 &#x3bc;m, wherein the Montelukast or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is homogeneously dispersed in the emulsion, and wherein the emulsion has a pH of about 3.0 to about 6.5. The present disclosure also provides a topical gel comprising (a) about 0.5% to about 10% Montelukast or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (b) about 0.2% to about 8% cellulose polymer; and (c) about 80% to about 95% amphiphilic compound; wherein the gel comprises less than 4% water.

A depot system containing at least one antibiotic and a biodegradable poly(ester-anhydride) of ricinoleic acid (RA) and sebacic acid (SA) having alternating or semi-alternating ester and anhydride bonds is provided. The system provides prolonged local release of the antibiotic at the site of injection while maintaining the systemic antibiotic levels at sub-therapeutic concentrations.

Compositions comprising biodegradable copolymers for prolonged local release of an antibiotic

A topical formulation comprising Montelukast or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a gelling agent and water for the treatment of atopic dermatitis.

Topical montelukast for treatment of atopic dermatitis

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising granules which include an inert core coated with ferric citrate. The present invention also provides methods of manufacture thereof and methods of use thereof.
