<p>A composition and method for treating both superficial and subdermal inflammation is taught by treating an inflamed skin area, muscle, or bone joint, with a therapeutically effective amount of a skin-compatible ester of a zwitterionic aminosulphonic acid (ZASA-Ester) of formula (1) wherein M is an alkali metal, like sodium, and R is a naturally occuring, straight-chain, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic acid, the esters of which form fatty acids in nature. The most useful of which are the oleic (cis isomer), linoleic, palmitic, and stearic moieties; they occur naturally as glycerides, i.e., esters of glycerol. Also useful are analogs of HEPES like piperazine-N'-(2-ethane sulfonic acid); N-methylpiperazine-N'-(2-ethane sulfonic acid); and the piperiodine analog of the piperazine ester. A pharmacologic composition is also provided which comprises at least one amphoteric (Zwitterionic-ester) with a pharmacologically-acceptable topical carrier or base. Other adjunctive pharmaceutical agents may be included to facilitate other than topical administration.</p> |
