There are a range of different types of treatment of mental disorders and what s ost suitable depends on the disorder a d oft the individual. Schizophrenia is mental disorder which affects about 1% of the population (Lewis ¾ Lieberman, 2000), and genetic and environmental factors underlie the eventual eruption of the disease (Ross, 2006 }. Schizophrenia is often chronic, characterized by deterioration of social contact cognitive deficits, anxiety and depression, resulting in suicide in about % of the schizophrenic population ew ¾ Liebemian, 2000 . Another important mental disorder is tic disorders, specifically, To rett syndrome (TS), which is characterized by m motor tics and at least one vocal tic. Starting at childhood, T includes ties like blinking, coughing throat clearing, sniffing and facial movements. About 1 of the school-age children an adolescents have Toi ette's .SUMMARY Aspects of the i relate to stable e f- nlsif ing compositions comprising at least one €B2 modulator, a self-emulsifying vehicle and optionally at least one additional antipsychotic agent, methods of the compositions and methods of treatment using same for the t eai nt of mental According t aspects illustrated therein, there is provided stable e f-e s fyir g compositions comprising a therapeutically amount of at least one CB receptor modulator- n substantially pure form, a self-emulsifying vehicle an optionally a therapeutically effective amount of least one antipsychotic agent, for use treating mental disorder in a patient in need thereof. I some embodiments, t e self-emulsifying (o self-e u ifiab e drug delivery systems (SEDDS) can be liquid compositions generally used for ora deliver '. or m r particularly designed for improved delivery of drug moieties with poor solubility (see Nagaraju J. Seminar, M. Pharm. II Sem. 20 , Kakatiya University, Warangai, Department of Pharmaceutics, University College of Pharmaceutical Sciences. According to aspects of the invention, the se -em sify in drug delivery system (SEDDS) compositions enable to reduce the oral dose to correspond to the dose given by iwtraperitoneai injections or a lower dose. Accordi to other aspects- of the Invention, the seif e f i&g dru deliver system (SEDDS) compositions potentiate the therapeutic actions of a CB2 receptor modulator, reducing the required do.se hence its toxicity. According to aspects of d invention, he compositions of thi invention can be formulated as a stable self-emulsifying dreg delivery system (SEDDS) comprising at least one CB receptor modulator, optionally at least one antipsychotic age t and a .self-emulsifying vehicle comprising at least one oil, at least one surfactant with HLB<9, at least one surfactant with B> at least One co-surfactant and at least one antioxidant and' r free-radical scavenger. The antioxidant and/or free-radical scavenger can e selected from vitamin E, d alpha-tocopherol ( - w/w), di-alpha-tocopherol (2-i 5%w/w), dl-aipha-tocopheryi acetate ( % w/w), mixed tocopherols (alpha, beta, gama - 1-10% w/w). d-a p a-tocophery acetate (2- 13% w/w), butylated hydroxyanisoje (BHA, 0.01-0.5% w/w), tocophersolan ( PG . tocopherol PEG est e succinate) (2-10% w/w), vitami , e a te ., butylated hydrox toluene, butylated hydroxyanisole or other FDA-approved antioxidant listed in the FDA's nactiv Ingredients Database ( D), and combinations thereof. n some embodiments, the ratio of antioxidant/CB2 modulator, such as but not limited to BC , is from 1:1 to 2:1 w/w.
