Abstract
A recipient-dosage delivery system including shearlite particles of a bio-affecting agent for delivery to a recipient. The particles are provided in a metered dose and are packaged in a bi-functional vessel. The particles are produced under liquiflash conditions and exhibit sufficient flowability so as to allow administration of the metered dose to the recipient under the force of gravity.
Claims42
A recipient-dosage delivery system, for oral use comprising:
- i) shearlite particles of a bio-affecting agent for delivery to the oral cavity of a recipient, said particles provided in a metered dose and sufficiently flowable to be administered under the force of gravity;
- ii) a bi-functional vessel for sterile storage and transportation of said particles and for subsequent delivery of said particles to said recipient.
A method for oral delivering a metered dose of a bio-affecting agent directly to a recipient, comprising:
- i) sealingly packaging a metered dose of shearlite particles of a bio-affecting agent in a bifunctional storage and delivery vessel;
- ii) accessing and thereafter orally administering said packaged particles at an angle of repose effective to induce flow of said particles from said container to the oral cavity of said recipient.
A delivery system for oral use, comprising:
- i) shearlite particles produced by a liquiflash process, said particles provided in a metered dose and sufficiently flowable to be administered orally under the force of gravity;
- ii) a vessel for storage and subsequent delivery of said particles.
