Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising an ionic co-crystal (ICC) of lithium with salicylic acid and 1-proline (LISPRO). The pharmaceutical composition can further comprise an anti-inflammatory agent, for example, salicylic acid. An embodiment of the invention provides a method for treating Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) in a subject by administering to the subject a composition comprising a pharmaceutically effective amount of LISPRO.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method for treating Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising orally administering to the subject a composition comprising a pharmaceutically effective amount of an ionic co-crystal of lithium with salicylic acid and 1-praline (LISPRO) for at least two months, wherein the pharmaceutically effective amount is 45 mg/kg/day to 50 mg/kg/day. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises an anti-inflammatory agent. 3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the anti-inflammatory agent a steroidal anti-inflammatory agent or a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutically effective amount of LISPRO produces lithium concentration in the plasma of the subject over about 2 hours to about 3 days at about 0.5 μg/ml to about 5 μg/ml. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutically effective amount of LISPRO produces lithium concentration in the brain of the subject over about 2 hours to about 3 days at about 0.5 μg/ml to about 5 μg/ml. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein LISPRO is administered daily to a subject at about 45 mg/kg. 7. The method of claim 1 , wherein LISPRO is administered daily to a subject at about 50 mg/kg. 8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutically effective amount of LISPRO produces lithium concentration in the plasma of the subject over about 2 hours to about 3 days at about 0.75 μg/ml to about 4 μg/ml. 9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutically effective amount of LISPRO produces lithium concentration in the plasma of the subject over about 2 hours to about 3 days at about 1 μg/ml to about 3 μg/ml. 10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutically effective amount of LISPRO produces lithium concentration in the brain of the subject over about 2 hours to about 3 days at about 0.75 μg/ml to about 4 μg/ml. 11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutically effective amount of LISPRO produces lithium concentration in the brain of the subject over about 2 hours to about 3 days at about 1 μg/ml to about 3 μg/ml. 12. The method of claim 1 , comprising administering LISPRO to the subject for two months.
