It would therefore represent a further significant relates to parenterally deliverable, for example injectable, advance in the art if a parenterally deliverable formulation of formulations of water-soluble selective COX-2 inhibitory a selective COX-2 inhibitory drug could be provided. drugs and Salts and prodrugs thereof. Even more particu larly, the invention relates to Such formulations that are 0007. It is known to prepare parenteral formulations by a prepared as powders for reconstitution in an aqueous carrier process of lyophilization (freeze-drying) of an aqueous prior to parenteral administration.

The pharmaceutical agent may be slowly released from a hydrogel or microcapsule in the spray formulation. Various formulations of reasonable thixotropic (21) Appl. No.: 11/392.403 and hydrogel media are useful. Droplet size and thixotropy determine the distribution of the material along body sur faces and tissues such as the respiratory passages, and limit the displacement, running or dripping of the sprayed (22) Filed: Mar. 29, 2006 medium from its intended sites. US 2007/0231396 A1 Oct. 4, 2007 MEDCATION SPRAY FORMULATION would be welcomed by both manufacturers of health care products and consumers of Such products. FIELD OF THE INVENTION SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 0001. The invention relates to thixotropic formulations for spray media delivery to body Surfaces and tissues such 0006 The present invention provides a thixotropic fluid as nasopharyngeal passages. The thixotropic effect allows media composition that is capable of being sprayed onto a for good fluidity during spraying but prevents running or patient's tissue (e.g., skin, wound, nasal cavity/mucous drippage loss of the medication from the body Surface so membrane), and generally consists of a primary carrier sprayed.
