Improved topical pharmaceutical compositions containing a pharmaceutically-active agent and the penetration enhancing agent 1-dodecylazacycloheptan-2-one are disclosed. This agent is used at selected levels in combination with certain C3-C4 diols or a 1-substituted azacycloalkyl-2-one. This composition provides marked transepidermal and percutaneous delivery of the selected pharmaceutically-active agent. A method of treating certain pathologies and conditions responsive to the selected active, systemically or locally, is also disclosed.
Topical pharmaceutical compositions comprising a pharmaceutically-active agent and a novel, penetration-enhancing vehicle or carrier are disclosed. The vehicle or carrier comprises a binary combination of N-(2-Hydroxyethyl) pyrrolidone and a "cell-envelope disordering compound". The compositions provide marked transepidermal and percutaneous delivery of the active selected. A method of treating certain pathologies and conditions responsive to the selected active, systemically or locally, is also disclosed.

The present disclosure provides a once-daily water-soluble pharmaceutically active formulation for oral administration. In certain embodiments, the composition comprises a water-soluble pharmaceutically active organic compound incorporated into a small particulate, each particulate having a core of the water-soluble pharmaceutically active organic compound or an acceptable salt thereof in reversible association with a pharmaceutically acceptable drug-binding polymer. The core of the composition being surrounded by an insoluble water permeable membrane that is capable of delaying the dissolution of the pharmaceutically active compound therewithin and providing for extended release of the pharmaceutically active compound. In some embodiments, the formulation of the invention are designed to extend release of the pharmaceutically active organic compound for about 3 hours to about 8 hours, thereby enabling preparation of an extended release formulation for any pharmaceutically active compound with a half-life of from about 16 hours to about 21 hours.
