Abstract

Abstract A method and drug form are provided for increasing the oral absorption of glycosidic and related antibiotics such as macrolide, aminoglycoside, lincomycin and anthracycline antibiotics and related chemical species by the oral administration of said glycosidic and related antibiotics in a suitable pharmaceutically accepted excipient to which has been added a hydroxyaryl or hydroxyaralkyl acid or salt thereof. The hydroxyaryl or hydroxyaralkyl acid or salt thereof is present in the drug form in quantities sufficient to be effective in enhancing the rate of oral absorption of glycosidic and related antibiotic.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 140 words
A method for enhancing the rate of absorption of an orally administered glycosidic or related antibiotic into the bloodstream, said method comprising the steps of preparing a drug form capable of being orally absorbed, said drug form comprising a therapeutically effective dosage amount of the glycosidic or related antibiotics and an adjuvant of the Formula: ##STR3## wherein R 1 is --CO 2 H, --(CH 2 )--COOH, ##STR4## SO 3 H or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R 2 is OH, H, a lower alkoxy radical, a lower alkyl radical, a halo radical, or a tri-halo lower alkyl radical, and wherein y is an integer of 1 or 2; said adjuvant being present in said drug form in a sufficient amount to be effective in enhancing said oral absorption rate and administering said drug form orally to a warm-blooded animal.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 140 words
A method for enhancing the rate of absorption of an orally administered glycosidic or related antibiotic into the bloodstream, said method comprising the steps of preparing a drug form capable of being orally absorbed, said drug form comprising a therapeutically effective dosage amount of the glycosidic or related antibiotics and an adjuvant of the Formula: ##STR3## wherein R 1 is --CO 2 H, --(CH 2 )--COOH, ##STR4## SO 3 H or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R 2 is OH, H, a lower alkoxy radical, a lower alkyl radical, a halo radical, or a tri-halo lower alkyl radical, and wherein y is an integer of 1 or 2; said adjuvant being present in said drug form in a sufficient amount to be effective in enhancing said oral absorption rate and administering said drug form orally to a warm-blooded animal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words

Claim 8
Dependent Claim 104 words
An orally administered drug form comprising a therapeutically effective amount of glycosidic or related antibiotic and an adjuvant comprising a compound of the formula: ##STR5## wherein R 1 is --CO 2 H, --(CH 2 )--COOH, ##STR6## SO 3 H, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof wherein R 2 is OH, H, a lower alkoxy radical, a lower alkyl radical, a halo radical, or a tri-halo lower alkyl radical, and wherein y is an integer of 1 or 2; said adjuvant being present in said drug form in sufficient amount to be effective in enhancing the oral absorption rate of said glycosidic or related antibiotic.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 104 words
An orally administered drug form comprising a therapeutically effective amount of glycosidic or related antibiotic and an adjuvant comprising a compound of the formula: ##STR5## wherein R 1 is --CO 2 H, --(CH 2 )--COOH, ##STR6## SO 3 H, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof wherein R 2 is OH, H, a lower alkoxy radical, a lower alkyl radical, a halo radical, or a tri-halo lower alkyl radical, and wherein y is an integer of 1 or 2; said adjuvant being present in said drug form in sufficient amount to be effective in enhancing the oral absorption rate of said glycosidic or related antibiotic.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 19 words
The drug form of claim 7 wherein said glycosidic or related antibiotic is macrolide, aminoglycoside, lincomycin, clindamycin or anthracycline.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 11 words
