Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for treating obesity involving satiation gut peptide administration to the mouth of a subject for a predetermined dose and frequency. In other embodiments, materials and methods of treating certain psychological disorders are disclosed involving satiation gut peptides. In exemplary embodiments, the satiation gut peptide pertains to PYY.
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of inducing satiation in a subject comprising applying a therapeutically effective dose of a satiation gut peptide to a tongue in a mouth of a subject, wherein the satiation gut peptide is contained within a lozenge, wherein the lozenge is in the form of a dissolvable planar sheet, wherein said satiation gut peptide is unmodified Peptide YY (PYY), and wherein the application of the dissolvable planar sheet to the tongue does not substantially change the concentration of the satiation peptide in the plasma of the subject. 2. A method of inducing satiation in a subject comprising applying a therapeutically effective dose of a satiation gut peptide to a tongue in a mouth of a subject, wherein the satiation gut peptide is contained within a lozenge, wherein the lozenge is in the form of a dissolvable planar sheet, wherein said satiation gut peptide consists essentially of Peptide YY (PYY), and wherein the application of the dissolvable planar sheet to the tongue does not substantially change the concentration of the satiation peptide in the plasma of the subject. 3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the satiation gut peptide is delivered to the subject prior to eating. 4. A method of treating obesity of a subject comprising delivering a therapeutically effective dose of a satiation gut peptide to a tongue in a mouth of said subject via a lozenge loaded with the satiation gut peptide, wherein the lozenge is in the form of a dissolvable planar sheet, wherein said satiation gut peptide is unmodified Peptide YY (PYY), and wherein the therapeutically effective dose does not substantially change the concentration of the satiation peptide in plasma of the subject. 5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the satiation gut peptide is delivered to the subject prior to eating. 6. A method of treating obesity of a subject comprising delivering a therapeutically effective dose of a satiation gut peptide to a tongue in a mouth of said subject via a lozenge loaded with the satiation gut peptide, wherein the lozenge is in the form of a dissolvable planar sheet, wherein said satiation gut peptide consists essentially of Peptide YY (PYY), and wherein the therapeutically effective dose does not substantially change the concentration of the satiation peptide in the plasma of the subject. 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the satiation gut peptide is delivered to the subject prior to eating.
