This invention relates to a composition comprising a glucosamine material and an analgesic compound such as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and/or an opioid analgesic and its use for treatment of pain in pharmaceutical or veterinary applications. When the components of the compositions are administered within certain ratios, the analgesic efficacy of the composition is super-additive (synergistic) relative to the analgesic efficacy of the analgesic compound alone.
A composition for improved absorption of drugs which are poorly water-soluble and poorly absorbed. Particularly this invention relates to a composition of matter in pharmaceutical dosage form comprising 4-(monoalkylamino)benzoic acid and derivatives and non-ionic surfactants, providing enhanced blood levels of 4-(monoalkylamino)benzoic acid and derivatives for the treatment of atherosclerosis hypolipidemia. A method of increasing drug absorption (particularly 4-(monoalkylamino)benzoic acid and derivatives) by administration of such drug in concert with greater than about 10% surfactant is described.

A pharmaceutical composition has a blend of at least first and second components and a medicament in a sufficient amount to be therapeutic where the first component is selected from hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC), ethylcellulose (EC), or derivatives of HPC, EC and hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) and the second component is at least one polymer. When HPC is the first component, hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose (HMC), HEC or carboxymethylcellulose will not be the second component and when EC is the first component, HPMC will not be the second component. The medicament can be a variety of drugs or nutritional supplements. The pharmaceutical composition releases the medicament for a prolonged or sustained period of time and can be formulated into many dosage forms.
