First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A method of formulating a topical wound treatment composition for administration to a skin wound, the method comprising: mixing dry powder comprising (a) 5 mg to 200 mg of one or more statins selected from atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, pitavastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin or simvastatin, (b) lactose monohydrate, (c) magnesium stearate, and (d) microcrystalline cellulose with petrolatum, a water-washable-ointment, or a cream type vehicle. 2 . The method of formulating a topical wound treatment composition for administration to a skin wound of claim 1 , further comprising mixing between 1 mg and 50 mg naltrexone with the petrolatum, a water-washable-ointment, or a cream type vehicle. 3 . The method of formulating a topical wound treatment composition for administration to a skin wound of claim 1 , further comprising mixing between 1 mg and 50 mg naltrexone and/or at least one of an antibiotic drug and an antifungal drug with the petrolatum, a water-washable-ointment, or a cream type vehicle. 4 . The method of formulating a topical wound treatment composition for administration to a skin wound of claim 3 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition comprises the water-washable-ointment, and wherein the water-washable-ointment comprises PEG-8, PEG-75, meadowsweet extract, zinc acetate, and propylene glycol. 5 . The method of formulating a topical wound treatment composition for administration to a skin wound of claim 1 , further comprising mixing butylated hydroxyanisole with the petrolatum, a water-washable-ointment, or a cream type vehicle. 6 . The method of formulating a topical wound treatment composition for administration to a skin wound of claim 1 , wherein the dry powder further comprise between 1 mg and 50 mg naltrexone and/or at least one of an antibiotic drug or an antifungal drug. 7 . A method of treating a wound comprising: administering to tissue of a skin wound a topical wound treatment composition comprising (a) 5 mg to 200 mg of one or more statins selected from atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, pitavastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin or simvastatin, (b) xylitol, (c) poloxamers, (d) lactose monohydrate, (e) magnesium stearate, and (f) microcrystalline cellulose with petrolatum, a water-washable-ointment, or a cream type vehicle. 8 . The method of treating a wound of claim 7 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition further comprises between 1 mg and 50 mg naltrexone. 9 . The method of treating a wound of claim 7 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition further comprises between 1 mg and 50 mg naltrexone and/or at least one of an antibiotic drug and an antifungal drug. 10 . The method of treating a wound of claim 9 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition comprises the water-washable-ointment, and wherein the water-washable-ointment comprises PEG-8, PEG-75, meadowsweet extract, zinc acetate, and propylene glycol. 11 . The method of treating a wound of claim 7 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition further comprises butylated hydroxyanisole. 12 . The method of treating a wound of claim 7 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition further comprises at least one of an antibiotic drug or an antifungal drug. 13 . A method of treating a wound comprising: administering to tissue of a skin wound a topical wound treatment composition comprising (a) 5 mg to 200 mg of one or more statins selected from atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, pitavastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin or simvastatin, (b) lactose monohydrate, (c) magnesium stearate, and (d) microcrystalline cellulose with petrolatum, a water-washable-ointment, or a cream type vehicle. 14 . The method of treating a wound of claim 13 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition further comprises between 1 mg and 50 mg naltrexone. 15 . The method of treating a wound of claim 13 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition further comprises between 1 mg and 50 mg naltrexone and/or at least one of an antibiotic drug and an antifungal drug. 16 . The method of treating a wound of claim 15 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition comprises the water-washable-ointment, and wherein the water-washable-ointment comprises PEG-8, PEG-75, meadowsweet extract, zinc acetate, and propylene glycol. 17 . The method of treating a wound of claim 13 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition further comprises butylated hydroxyanisole. 18 . The method of treating a wound of claim 17 , wherein the topical wound treatment composition further comprises between 1 mg and 50 mg naltrexone and/or at least one of an antibiotic drug or an antifungal drug.
