Embodiment

[0061] A 75:25 mass ratio mixture of micronized glycopyrronium bromide and magnesium stearate (total mass approximately 1 g) was placed on top of 100 g of 2 mm diameter stainless steel balls in a ball mill. Grind volume was about 58.8ml. Add 5 ml of cyclohexane to wet the above mixture. The ball mill was sealed and secured in a Retsch S100 centrifuge. It was then centrifuged at 500 rpm for a total of 240 minutes. A small sample (approximately 5-10 mg) of the wet powder was removed from the ball mill every 60 minutes. The samples were vacuum dried in an oven at 37°C.

[0062] The resulting formulations were assayed. The method and results are documented below:

Abstract

Glycopyrrolate or an analogue thereof is useful for the treatment of childhood asthma.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to the treatment of children's asthma. Background of the invention [0002] Glycopyrrolate has been known for many years to be a potent antimuscarinic agent. It has been used for several indications and delivered by many different routes. Recently, it has been used as an injection to reduce secretion during anesthesia and as an oral product for the treatment of gastric ulcers. One of the earliest indications of its use in airway diseases was in 1984, where it was shown to have a marked effect on bronchiectasis. Since then, many studies have been done to prove its potential utility. [0003] Schroeckens tein et al., J. Allergy Clin. Immunol., 1988;82(1):115-119 disclose the use of an aerosol formulation of glycopyrronium bromide for the treatment of asthma. A single metered dose of aerosol glycopyrronium bromide achieved bronchodilation over a 12-hour period. [0004] Leckie et al., Exp.Opin.Invest.Drugs, 2000;9(1):...
