A composition and method for treating Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is provided which can be used both with and without ethical drugs now used to treat ADHD. The composition contains dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE), omega 3-fatty acids, betaine, oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC), folic acid, vitamins C, E, B12, B6, B5 and beta-carotene and minerals (calcium, magnesium, zinc and selenium). Ethical drugs such as amphetamines, methylphenidate HCl and pemoline are known to control ADHD, but each has significant side effects when used in their therapeutic dose. When combining the composition with such ethical drugs, the amount of the ethical drug can be lowered below a level which causes undesirable side effects which is an important feature. Preferred compositions contain one or more of lecithin, choline, 5-hydroxytryptophan, tyrosine, Reishi Extract, Kava Extract, Gingko, Ginseng and St. John's Wort.

A dermal composition for administration of an amphetamine drug comprising a blend of two or more acrylic-based polymers having differing functionalities so as to modulate the drug solubility in the polymer matrix and the delivery rate of the drug, and methods therefor.

The invention includes processes for the synthesis of amphetamine, dexamphetamine, methamphetamine, derivatives of these, including their salts, and novel precursors and intermediates obtained thereby, by synthesizing aziridine phosphoramidate compounds in specified solvents at specified temperatures, and then converting to a novel aryl or aryl-alkyl phosphoramidate precursors using an organometallic compound such as a copper salt, where the novel aryl or aryl-alkyl phosphoramidate precursor is then easily converted to the target compounds using known reactions.

The invention relates to a veterinary allylgestrine preparation and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of veterinary medicine. The veterinary allylgestrine preparation of the present invention is made of raw materials comprising the following mass percentages, 0.3-0.5% allylgestrine, 0.9-1.1% benzyl alcohol, 0.012-0.016% antioxidant, 0.06-0.38% β- Carotene, 0.07~0.25% omega-3 fatty acid. The allylgestrine preparation of the invention has good absorption effect, high bioavailability and good dispersion effect of the preparation.

The present invention relates to methods of treating or preventing addiction and relapse use of addictive agents, and treating or preventing addictive or compulsive behaviour and relapse practice of an addictive behaviour or compulsion, by administering a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonist, alone or in combination with another therapeutic agent, such as, for example, an opioid receptor antagonist or an antidepressant, or an addictive agent, such as, for example, an opioid agonist. The present invention also includes pharmaceutical compositions for treating or preventing addiction or relapse that include a PPARγ agonist and one or more other therapeutic or addictive agents, as well as unit dosage forms of such pharmaceutical compositions, which contain a dosage effective in treating or preventing addiction or relapse. The methods and compositions of the invention are useful in the treatment or prevention of addiction to any agent, including alcohol, nicotine, marijuana, cocaine, and amphetamines, as well as compulsive and addictive behaviours, including pathological gambling and pathological overeating.

Pharmaceutical compositions and their methods of use are provided, where the pharmaceutical compositions comprise an amphetamine prodrug that provides enzymatically-controlled release of amphetamine or an amphetamine analog. The composition can further comprise an enzyme inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme(s) that mediates the enzymatically-controlled release of amphetamine or the amphetamine analog from the amphetamine prodrug so as to attenuate enzymatic cleavage of the amphetamine prodrug.
