Filing Date: | Oct 15, 1999 |
Application Number: | 09/419,456 |
Claims: | 1. A pharmaceutical formulation for parenteral administration comprising an optically pure solid state Na.sup.+ salt of the (-)-enantiomer of 5-methoxy-2[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-1H-benzi midazole as active ingredient, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 2. A pharmaceutical formulation for parenteral administration comprising an injection solution comprising an optically pure solid state Na.sup.+ salt of the (-)-enantiomer of 5-methoxy-2[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-1H-benzi midazole as active ingredient, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable solvent having a volume sufficient to effect a solution having a concentration of 0.1 to 10% by weight of the active ingredient. 3. The pharmaceutical formulation according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the solid state salt is in substantially crystalline form. 4. The pharmaceutical formulation according to claim 1 or 2, further comprising a stabilizing agent, a buffering agent or a mixture thereof. 5. The pharmaceutical formulation for parenteral administration according to claim 1, comprising an injectable solution. 6. A method of inhibiting gastric acid secretion comprising the parenteral administration to a mammal including man in need of such treatment of a pharmaceutical formulation comprising a therapeutically effective amount of an optically pure solid state Na.sup.+ salt of the (-)-enantiomer of 5-methoxy-2[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-1H-benzi midazole and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 7. A method for the treatment of gastrointestinal inflammatory disease comprising the parenteral administration to a mammal including man in need of such treatment of a pharmaceutical formulation comprising a therapeutically effective amount of an optically pure solid state Na.sup.+ salt of the (-)-enantiomer of 5-methoxy-2[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-1H-benzi midazole, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 8. The method according to claim 7, wherein a solution with the solvent carrier is prepared immediately before the administration. 9. The method according to claim 6 or 7, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier is in the form of a solvent. 10. The method of claim 7, wherein the solvent has a volume effecting a solution of a concentration of 0.1-10% by weight of the active ingredient. 11. A method of inhibiting gastric acid secretion comprising injecting a mammal including man in need of such treatment with a solution of an optically pure solid state Na.sup.+ salt of the (-)-enantiomer of 5-methoxy-2[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-1H-benzi midazole and a pharmaceutically acceptable solvent having a volume sufficient to effect a solution having a concentration of 0.1 to 10% by weight of the active ingredient. 12. A method for the treatment of gastrointestinal inflammatory disease comprising injecting a mammal including man in need of such treatment with a solution of an optically pure solid state Na.sup.+ salt of the (-)-enantiomer of 5-methoxy-2[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-1H-benzi midazole and a pharmaceutically acceptable solvent having a volume sufficient to effect a solution having a concentration of 0.1 to 10% by weight of the active ingredient. |
