Method for enhancing penetration of lipid insoluble medicaments through cell membranes using small S-Allyl-containing molecules with phospholipid permeability as carrier molecules

摘要

A method and composition that allows for the penetration of lipid insoluble medicaments through cell membranes using small S-Allyl-containing molecules with phospholipid permeable molecules as carrier molecules. S-Allyl-containing compounds can include alliin, allicin, Allium sativum extract and DMSO. Lipid insoluble medicaments can include 1% xylocaine, curcumin, acyclovir, valacyclovir, famciclovir, terbenafin, griseofulvin, clotrimazole, ketoconazole, clindamycin, neomycin, polysporin, bactricin, among others. The lipid insoluble medicaments are mixed with the phospholipid permeable molecules and painted on the skin using a swab or other suitable tool, thereby allowing for penetration of the medicament and providing relief from pain potentially caused by a subsequent injection. The composition can also be administered through an inhaler or directly into mucous membranes. If appropriately packaged and given intravenously, S-allyl molecules may also be used to enhance the penetration of non-lipid soluble molecules, including curcumin, through cell membranes in solid organs, such as the liver, pancreas, kidneys, uterus, prostrate, bone, joints and brain.
