New Patents
Heterocyclic dihydroxyquinoxaline compounds having the formula See Patent for Chemical Structure wherein R I is halogen, CN, CF3, ethynyl, or N3 and R2 is SO2C1-3-alkyl, CF3, NO2, ethynyl, or CN. The invention also relates to a method of preparing the compounds, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and their use. The compounds are useful in the treatment of indications caused by hyperactivity of the excitatory neurotransmitters, particularly the quisqualate receptors, and especially as neuroleptics.
prepared e.g. by reacting a solution in an organic solvent of L-carnitine whose carboxyl group is protected with an N-protected aminoacid in the presence of a condensing agent and then removing the aminoacid and carnitine protecting groups, thus obtaining the desired compound.

4814184 PHARMACEUTICAL DELIVERY DEVICE HAVING A SILOXANE POLYMER MATRIX Louis M J Aguadisch, Frank S Rankin, Valbonne, France assigned to Dow Corning Ltd Improved pharmaceutical delivery devices which can deliver hydrophilic or polar pharmaceutically active materials, as well as optionally hydrophobic or non-polar materials, have small particles with on average a diameter below 20 microns of a drug component comprising the hydrophilic or polar pharmaceutically active material, dispersed in a silicone matrix. These devices are produced by using certain organopolysiloxane-polyoxyalkylene copolymers. Preferably an emulsion of the drug component in a silicone containing composition is made before curing the composition to an elastomer.
