Disclosed are gastric acid-resistant polymer-coated buffered digestive enzymes/bile acid compositions, process for their preparations and methods of treating digestive disorders and cystic fibrosis by administering said compositions to a mammal in need of such treatment.

High buffer-containing enteric coating digestive enzyme bile acid

Disclosed are controlled rate-release devices for releasing a pharmaceutically active agent into the oral cavity by the dissolving action of the saliva, a process of preparing such devices and methods of preventing/treating conditions/diseases in a mammal by delivering a pharmaceutically active substance into the oral cavity.

Intraoral medicament-releasing device

Disclosed are gastric acid-resistant polymer-coated, buffered digestive enzymes/ursodeoxycholate compositions, process for their preparations and methods for treating digestive disorders, pancreatic enzyme insufficiency, impaired liver function, and cystic fibrosis for regulating the absorption of dietary iron and cholesterol, and for dissolving gallstones by administering the compositions to a mammal in need of such treatment.

Compositions of digestive enzymes and salts of bile acids and process

Disclosed are gastric acid-resistant polymer-coated buffered digestive enzymes/ursodeoxycholate compositions, process for their preparations and methods of treating digestive disorders, pancreatic enzyme insufficiency, impaired liver function, cystic fibrosis, for regulating the absorption of dietary iron and cholesterol, and for dissolving gallstones by administering the compositions to a mammal in need of such treatment.

Disclosed are buffer-stabilized gastric acid resistant polymer-coated bile salt compositions, process for their preparations and methods of treating digestive disorders, impaired liver function, autoimmune diseases of the liver and biliary tract, preventing colon cancer, cholestasis associated with cystic fibrosis, dissolving gallstones and regulating dietary cholesterol absorption by administering said compositions to a mammal in need of such treatment.

Compositions of gastric acid-resistant microspheres containing buffered

Disclosed are compositions containing bile acid-aminosalicylate conjugates having the formula, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is OH either the .alpha. or the .beta. position;

Compositions containing salts of bile acid-aminosalicylate conjugates

Disclosed are gastric acid-resistant polymer-coated ursodeoxycholate compositions, process for their preparations and methods of treating digestive disorders, impaired liver function, autoimmune diseases of the liver and biliary tract, prevention of colon cancer following cholecystectomy, cystic fibrosis, dissolving gallstones and regulating dietary cholesterol absorption by administering said compositions to a mammal in need of such treatment.

A system for long term releasing of medication in the mouth, and especially an intra-oral fluoride releasing system (IFRS) for releasing fluoride over a long term for inhibiting the formation of caries in the teeth. The system uses a holder for retaining and protecting intra-oral fluoride tablets or other intra-oral medicament in the form of fluoride releasing devices (IFRD). The holder has a plate with retaining sides and retaining posts or a carrier. The tablet will fit within the holder. The tablet may be located in the carrier, or ligature bands can be tied around the tablet in order to releasably hold the IFRD within the holder. The system causes a level of fluoride to be maintained over a long term within the mouth which has been found chemically effective for caries control and without causing severe irritation to oral tissues.
